Excellent processor, pricey but works great. Shouldnt need to upgrade for a while now. Nice packaging too!!
However in gaming with multiple different Firefox tabs and discord/telegram open, it never even touches 70c, so your experience may vary depending on what type of work load you are doing. Make sure that if you do have a high powered gpu that you also have a high output power supply with a high efficiency rating as well, as my system can suck north of 600-750w full tilt (my power supply being a 1200w platinum EVGA that doesnt break a sweat under full load).
I love this processor, it can handle anything I throw at it. The only thing I was concerned with, is that I bought it 'new', but the stickers were peeled off the Intel 12900k box, so I am not sure what was up with that, it looked like it still had the safety seal on it though, but at least it works.
So just going to say that it went right onto the mother board. Like easist one I have ever placed. Just read which is up.
Incredible processor with Amazing performance.
