Intel® Processor 300: 2 Cores (2 P-cores) Up to 3.9 GHz

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.

It a great cpu .i playing i highend games i just got a msi 4060 with it and i playing game well over 60fps and not water cooled just a big tower fan cooler and it plenty quiet .it work really well.does not go pass 70 it around normal 40 and 60c .low heat .ease installed.yes it easy value for money .great core size .but i only play in 1080p but my moniter his 180hz and i play everything on high or ultra.

Nice

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

There is not too much I can say about this processor which has not already been said in countless reviews on the internet. This processor is an extremely capable bit of silicon that should provide a good level of computing for several years. This version of the processor arrives in a card box, within which is a plastic case that holds the processor. It is nothing fancy, and in fact appears a little under whelming when you consider the potential of the product safely held by the plastic. Once the prcessor is removed form the packaging, fitting to a motherboard is very straight forward, although care must be taken when placing the chip in the socket so that no pins on the board are bent, and that the chip is orientated correctly in relation to the socket. Fit a good cooler and you are set for a new level of speed. In my case, I finally upgraded from an older (2014) i7 4770k and the difference for me is very obvious. Everything just seems to happen more quickly now. This has been a worthwhile upgrade for me. It was expensive, since I had to replace the motherboard and memory, get a new cooler and added a couple of NVME drives. But it will last me for years before I consider another update. A very good processor that could revolutionise your computing experience.

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!

Saves 10% of my time over others in photoshop. I was worried about the product quality ordering from amazon but I really did not need to. Excellent product and works like a dream in my pc

No complaints here. It handles everything my gaming PC throws at it. I paired this with the Deepcool AK620.
