3D V-Cache Power efficiency for SFF cases Easy to overclock
-Easy install -VERY fast
- Powerful for CPU bound games (sometimes 30-50% improvement over other current gen cpus) - Efficient and doesn't run as hot as other ryzen 7000 cpus. - 8 cores/16 threads is a nice upgrade for someone on a 4 or 6 core cpu. - Best gaming CPU overall.
Easy install
A significant upgrade over my 10 year old CPU. This was my first system build and the instructions were simple. Product came in great condition and is performing excellently several weeks in.
I bought this cpu with a great discount, only 360$. For this price is a good choice and product.
Don't let the massive watts fool you! It is actually sometimes lower or even equal watt to Ryzen 5900x CPUs when playing games! Cooler than even Ryzen CPUs, love my NH-D15!
Worth upgrade over the 10900K that I replaced this with. Noticeable increase in FPS across the games that I play as well as productivity apps that I use
Its very fast and fun

I know its not for gaming but boy it downloads fast, and has the ability to do anything k need in a snappy manner.
good processor, one of the best on the market,
1% lows are amazing. Went from a RYZEN 9 3900x that didnt have the greatest 1% lows, to this. It became super stable.
The processor is lovely. i have no issues with it and it reach the max Boost clock while keeping low temp When i added my Water cooler.
Not sure what to say. Installed it and booted up. Did a quick benchmark and seems to be on par with other 12700.

Luckily I like spending time tweaking my CPU. My benchmark scores and framerates really did not go up until I dialed in a good Core Offset, tuned the memory beyond EXPO's auto settings, turned off Core Isolation in Windows, downloaded Win 11 update KB5041587. I have not tried Win11 24H2 yet, and I am not running this with any version of Linux. Compared to my 7950x, I have way more throw with the Core offset. I can dial in a Core Offset beyond -25 with the 9950x, whereas my 7950x gets fussy when I try a CO beyond -5. The 9950x also doesn't run as hot.

9600-series processors have improvements to the instruction set over the 7000-series and are generally more power efficient.

Great performance and temps. Coming from 10600K this doubled my frame rates at 4K in GTA5 and made Cities Skylines 2 actually playable with 300k+ citizens. Every other game is buttery smooth. 7600mhz XMP running without a hitch. I'm cooling on air with no thermal throttling using a Thermalright Phantom Spirit 120 and Intel Performance defaults. Adobe Premiere feels like it's running on a commercial workstation. Complex 3D print files slice instantly and 3D modeling loves this new chip

Just plug it in, and it works great. Fan included, and always runs cooler than 100 degrees F. ( in an ancient Xion case).
Scored over 20000 on geekbench. Nuff said.
