Cpu I5 I7 Comparison

Came from i7 7700k to i5 12600k is a massive improvement, with 299 price is a great CPU for this price Highly Recommend this CPU.

I had a 2014 iMac with an i5 that I enjoyed, the 2020 i7 8 core that I bought is a lot more machine and they are now being discounted. I don't need the latest tech but my new machine has 64 Gb of RAM and is much faster, I use it with Photoshop and for video editing. I had my last iMac for 7 years with not a single problem, a well made machine. I was an original apple developer in 1997 and I still favor Apple products.

Received this bundle with the purchase of an i7 CPU.� Has a little of everything to offer.� Very nice and useful software.

Easy to install and keeps the core temp at about 36 deg C for my i7 12700k cpu.

I added this into my Windows 7 4th Gen i5 movie server.   It had trouble transcoding 4k videos on the fly (the CPU would peg at 100%).  I added this card in and updated all the drivers.  Now video transcoding is being offloaded to the card instead of CPU and I can now push multiple 4k files at the same time without breaking a sweat.  Much cheaper than rebuilding the whole server with a new generation of CPU/MoBo/RAM etc.

Coming from a i5-6500 this was a massive upgrade. I run two 1440p monitors and it gets ALL task done no problem with speed. I do recommend undervolting the cpu due to its high thermal temps. With undervolting my CPU hits a max 65c playing CPU intensive games and a max of 82c running CPU benchmarks with a 280mm AIO water cooler. 10/10 would recommend.

Before upgrading to this CPU, my i5-6600K was hitting near 100% while my 3070 stayed around 40%. Now my 3070 is near 100% and this CPU remains around 15-35%.

A huge upgrade from my prior CPU, my new PC absolutely flies in comparison.

Well designed motherboard. I am running Windows 11 with a i7-13700K CPU and a 128 GB of Crucial DDR5 RAM. I wish ASUS made more Z790 motherboards in mATX form factor.

I see one reviewer had issues with the WiFi at first. The key is to download the Drivers in advance, if possible, to a thumb drive (BIOS update, Chipset, LAN, WLAN, Audio, Graphics, etc). As we know, Gen-13 is Intel's final offering. (I also own the i7-1370P version, increasing core and thread count.) Gen's 11-13 use a P (performance) cpu instead of a U (mobile) cpu. I also own gen 8 and 10 units and they function very well. The latest units are very robust and utilize updated protocols. The OEM manufacturers are already charging Much more, so it's time to find an Intel while they're still available. I have compared this NUC13 i7 unit to many other mini PC's on the market, but the Intel NUC has, I believe, the best (and updated) features overall including TB4 and USB4, WiFi AXE. And the M.2 SATA port is an added bonus.
