Can this CPU support everyday tasks without issues?

It sure can. I put one in a small form factor build and it makes everyday computing a breeze. with integrated graphics hardware video decoding disabled, it can play back a 1080p 60fps AV1 video with no dropped frames and only be at about 10% utilization. Would pair well with most mid range GPUs for a gaming PC. Everyday tasks will not even trigger a turbo boost on this CPU.

Would this CPU be a good fit for office use?

The Intel Core i5-12500 processor offers features such as 6 cores, 12 threads, and integrated Intel UHD Graphics 770, making it suitable for office use.

How does this CPU compare to the i5 12400?

Higher clock speeds, better graphics, more enterprise and virtualization features.

Does the CPU come with a heatsink included?

Yes, the low profile stock cooler.

If you have a M.2 SSD on this board, do you onl y have 3 SATA ports available out of the 4?

There are 2ea. M2 sockets. One may be a little close to the sata jack but its over far enough to use all 4 sata four connections.

The Intel Core i5-12500 comes with an Intel Laminar RM1 cooling device.
