Can't wait to buy this CPU 5 years later. Can't afford to sell my organs yet

[doodoo]

got an I9 12900k a few years ago. Running it with a 4090, no need to change anything yet. I believe intel fixed all the problems with bios updates as well.

Finally I can buy a good cpu for my Ryzen 4070.

On Amazon in the US the 5700X3D is $200, while the 5800X3D is $300

Getting my first PC with Ryzen 5 5600 and RX 7600 I can't wait to finally have a solid PC

[ashwanthbrice]

The Intel 12400f is really a good cpu for its price!

[jonnymercer]

Happy with my 5900x. Had it for a few years and it is very solid.

I have the 7800X3D and Nvidia RTX 4070 Ti. I got it on sale as a Microcenter bundle last Black Friday. I scored BIG!!!

[dash_gaming]

No way he didn't recommend the 7600x

[zionml]

5500X3D is about come out soon, props to AMD for keeping AM4 alive till this day.

[Eli-zbyj]

Ryzen 4070 should be number 1 in the list

[Xeroff]

Who can forget Amd threadipper pro 7995wx it sure is expensive but performance it too good

[Papinators]

Nice... loving the new background, even thought I was watching an older video but the quality was too good

[LxL-quel]

If you don’t know, it’s because the new intel Just don’t work and you don’t get a refund

[innergenichiro]

I would recommend the ryzen 4070 as its easily the best APU, it clearse the 4090 + 7950x3d combo easily and generates no heat.

[User-kj]

And the best gpu rn is a ryzen 4070 ti super

[rishabh]

I3 12100f and i5 12400f are really good value. They are so much faster in gaming

[alexanders.]

What about the i5-12600K? 12th gen has been spared from the issues 13th and 14th gen have.
