    I’ve seen it hit 4.9ghz and I don’t do overclocking.

    12th gen doesn't suffer from the instability issues making the 12600k a great option!

    from completed build My first editing/gaming build!

    Very good CPU with a great reputation for video editing. Got it for 185€ and is not concerned at all by overheat Intel CPU problems since it's from Gen 12. Cinebench: 967 CPU MultiScore / 109 CPU SingleCore, just above Ryzen 7 5800X. Not overclocked for now (I don't think I can for now because of PSU compatibility)

    Gen 12 Intel. Was a beast when it came out. Still is. The K is unlocked and has a little more clock speed than base.

    Good for my price point, got it for $150. Integrated graphics is nice security.

    Works great, had no issues and stays cool. Definitely better options especially in 2024 soon to be 2025 but still works.

    OK CPU. It may get cheap here, since new CPUs have launched.

    from completed build Old Build in a New Case

    Got this on sale for $174.99. Great deal for a 10 core processor that supports overclocking, although now that 13th and 14th Gen is out, it's quite literally an overclockable 13400 with lower boost clocks.
