There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
For the i9, in terms of gaming performance, only CPU heavy games like RTS games will see any benefit. Multi-tasking also sees benefit, though that's limited to the hard drive it's working off of. Still, I expect great things in the far future.
The packaging is a keeper to be sure, too.
Other than that, the increase in core count and speed, couple with gen 4 SSD and RTX 3090 ti, everything else is just slow
Ya gotta water cool it it runs hot~!!!
Top reviews from other countries
Prodotto indubbiamente al top sia come prezzo che come prestazioni.
Il 12900 e comuqnue un processore di nicchia dedicato alle build più estreme o a chi davvero bisogno di grandi performance.
Punti deboli consumi e temperature.
Altra nota dolente mancanza di dissipatori compatibili o gravi problemi nel reperire i componenti per completare lassemblamento del PC.
Consiglio caldamente per le fase di i 9 e gli i7 più estri un raffreddamento ad aria di fascia alta oppure a liquido.
Combining this processor with nzxt 360 mm liquid cooling AIO , things went smoothly.
It can handle literally all heavy tasks like 3d rendering , simulation , gaming , yet keeps temprature at 40c .
Highly recommended for best gaming rigs .
Note: 4th gen ssd is a plus for the build ... Otherwise there might be bottleneck with gen3 ssds while doing 3d rendering works .
