I thought I’d need a 12700K for my build but had to settle for 12100. Got it 1 year ago.
This thing runs everything I throw at it and gives me at least 60FPS.
Even heavily moded Stalker Anomaly gives me reasonable performance.
I switched sides after about 12 years of using AMD CPUs (a 12700k was cheaper to build than 5800X), and this mini beast was a very very good first impression of Intel for me.
What about threads? I always wanted this cpu but opted for 5700x. Was a bit afraid it would loose with the lack of threads but seems great with rtx 4060 budget build.
4c/8thread not too shabby, it really rips… I definetly love mine :D
