Which CPU for the price?

Intel@hardware.watchEnglish · 10 months ago

Hi guys, I recently just bought an 12600kf for $110 via Newegg TikTok shop. I saw another deal going on there for an 12700kf for $170. I’m currently upgrading from an 12400f with a B660a Pro mobo. What’s the better purchase in your opinion?

Save it. If you’re going to upgrade, just go for a 13600k, then sell your 12400

All posts must be related to Intel or Intel products.
Give competitors’ recommendations only where appropriate. If a user asks for Intel only (i.e. i5-12600k vs i5-13400?) recommendations, do not reply with non-Intel recommendations. Commenting on a build pic saying they should have gone AMD/Nvidia is also inappropriate, don’t be rude. Let people enjoy things.
CPU Cooling problems: Just like 95C is normal for Ryzen, 100C is normal for Intel CPUs in many workloads. If you’re worried about CPU temperatures, please look at reviews for the laptop or CPU cooler you’re using.
