September 2023 Style Name: i7-12700K No complaints here. It handles everything my gaming PC throws at it. I paired this with the Deepcool AK620.

First off I must admit I did have a panic when I realised that this seller was in the USA. My bad I should have checked. However it arrived in the UK within 3 days and was with me on the 4th. Then I got in a funk because I began to worry it was a fake. Absolutely not, this is the genuine article. I bought this processor after upgrading my main box. I planned to use the old mobo , power supply, memory and graphics card to throw together a budget Linux box. All went as planned and this processor fairly eats everything I’ve thrown at it. Clearly there are newer processors out there but if you are looking to build on a budget this is a good compromise.

I got this CPU for my first PC build. So far, I do not have any complaints with how it handles. Similarly, fitting it was not an issue as everything was quite straight forward. I would say you are getting what you expect with an Intel processor. No complaints from me!

Went from an i7700k to this! Wow!! I’m playing Elden Ring and with a RTX 3070 at 1440P it’s butter smooth on max! I’ve can only compare those that but it’s night and day so far!! But be warned!! You will need a twin fan Cooler to keep this chip cool, don’t cheap out on the cooling with this chip. Installing was easy, just gently place it in the socket and lock the bar. 20 people found this helpful

I bought one of these ‘Processor 300’ CPUs partly out of curiosity and partly because it was 20-odd quid (it’s not worth more than that!). Clearly this CPU is not designed for heavy workloads, although it does not ‘crash’ as another reviewer states, it merely cripples the system so other applications sometimes become unusable – it doesn’t take much to push a dual-core CPU to 100% usage these days. Used sensibly, this is a great, power-frugal CPU. I’ve deployed it into a HTPC in my living room, a job which it is perfectly suited for. At idle it can be made to consume less than 5W of power, and only goes to around 12W when playing back a 4K HDR video file. The built in graphics decode everything in hardware, including AV1. CPU usage is very low when consuming media. If used in a home server or HTCP, this CPU is a good deal at 20 to 30 quid. Just don’t buy a dual core CPU in 2025 and moan that it is underpowered.

January 2025 Style Name: Sport Band Size Name: 40mm case Colour Name: Midnight (2023) Configuration: M/L – fits 150–200mm wrists Use this watch daily. Works great for recording workouts and has lots of different available features. Gadget Tree was the best price I found. Only slight drawback is the battery only lasts around 24 hours per charge. 4 people found this helpful

Building a new 12gen – DDR5 system and needed to upgrade my old 6700K CPU. Upgraded to this 12700K and to be honest, I was sceptical of the adverts selling page at first and the images advertising this 12700K CPU as they where mostly Chinese text. However, waited on some of the past buyers to answer some questions, after receiving some positive replies I decided to go ahead with the Purchase and I don’t regret it! Thanks to the seller for their understand with my worries, they replied swiftly and Product was delivered 5 days ahead of time from the Florida US. This is a Genuine INTEL 12700K Processor for anyone else thinking or wanting to buy from this seller. Thanks again for an awesome, Smooth, swift service from TECH DEALZ 14 people found this helpful
