I agree with you. Very nice review man :D

[TooColdS]

i bought a pc with this CPU paired with a RTX 3060 Ti GPU, so far i love it

[merboss_]

so the only differnece between the i7 13700k and the i7 13700kf is that there is no integrated graphics ?

[sshadowzlmao]

I found a prebuild with this and a 4060 for 1200 canadian. not bad huh. maybe prebuilds arent bad

nice video, this was the one I help me to build my machine.
my unit: -
-Asus ProArt Z690-CREATOR WIFI ATX LGA1700
-be quiet! Dark Rock Pro 4 50.5 CFM CPU Cooler

-Samsung 970 Evo Plus 2T M.2-2280
-32GB G.Skill DDR5 Trident Z5 6000MHz CL40 1.35V Dual Channel
-Segotep 850W Gaming ATX 3.0 Power Supply

-nvidia GE Force 3070ti

I used a cheap case that had no reset (Phanteks (PH-EC360ATG_DBK01) Eclipse P360A, Mid-Tower case black) and fans maxed with 2 fans on top case 2 on my cpu cooler 2 in front case and one in back, , , I got a damn win tunnel in my case and literally cool. No issues so far thankfully.

I run i7 on 1156 socket. I also upgraded graphics to 1660ti about year ago. I wanna buy bundle from pc shop with this cpu. Will my graphics card be ok with it ? I just wanna browse internet and go some picture editing from time to time

i5 13600k vs i7 13700 (non-k) help i cant decide.. Which CPU performs better in gaming? is the 13700 non-k faster than the 13600k? and if so, how much? and is the 13700 more future proof with the extra 2 cores? i've also seen that the 13700 consumes less wattage? so less wattage and more powerful than the 13600k, for the same money?? if thats the case, well then thats a win win? Where im from, they cost the same...

One youtube recomendation, the chapters are bad created, the first chapter must be 0:00 and never one higher. With a higher value, you can see the key moments in the description in the video time line.

Great video keep it up,
I'm getting the Z790 Aorus elite AX DDR4 paired with 13700kf and Aorus 4070 with Cooler master AIO 240mm. Thoughts plz

[deadmanwalking]

should the 13700kf be good with a 850w 80+ gold PSU, paired with the RTX 3080?

[decoraven]

this is my set up, well will be and should i stay with the kf or shoot for k?

[takiio]

[RednieYT]

hi, loved the vid but quick question - what do you use to make graphs? excel?

[jackkilofi]

has anyone build this with a 4070? if you are can you tell me how is it going?

[pineapplegamer]

Nice video
I have a question,
I want to buy a new cpu but i rather not spend more money on a gpu.
i want to have a nice gaming experience with good quality graphics( i don't need the very best just good graphics is fine) so my question is can i buy this cpu without buying a gpu and still having a good gaming experience? Pls let me know

[DETERMINOLOGY]

I really wouldn't say its the sweet spot as the 13600k is. The 13700k for 100$ is bothering people and i fully understand why

[Tas]

for just gaming light online gaming and games like horizon zero dawn and daily computer use. would this be great or just go for the K?

[thecire]

would a 240mm closed loop cpu cooler work for this cpu? Or should I go up to 360mm?

[yinions]

i’m getting the nzxt player three prebuilt. it has this cpu and 4070 ti. thoughts?
