    New Build -12900K vs 13700k, 12th gen cheaper

    IMO not worth it at that resolution of gaming and no use of the E cores. Feel like you’re more gpu limited than cpu.

    New Build -12900K vs 13700k, 12th gen cheaper

    Forgot to update but ended up going with 13700k. Gigabyte z690 itx with Corsair ddr5 @ 5200mhz and Thermalright PA120, the 13700k runs a few C cooler than 12900k, like 4-5c. Chip lottery probably. And running unlimited pl2, higher score in cinebench in 13700k. Probably cuz runs a little cooler...

    My clocks stay at 5.0GHz at all times on default settings, why?

    It’s fine. Max vcore 1.7 but ideal to stay under 1.4. Stock is around 1.3 https://www.overclock.net/threads/asus-maximus-z690-extreme-i9-12900k-guide-load-lines-vf-curves-adaptive-voltage-by-core-octvb.1794957/#Power Bothers you that much, turn off enhanced multi core performance...

    My clocks stay at 5.0GHz at all times on default settings, why?

    windows or something could be doing something in the background and loading cpu. Mine behaves this way especially when it was a new install/build. After a while it settles down and cpu is able to throttle down. And as eagle said, mobo makers tend to “overclock” even at default settings with...

    New Build -12900K vs 13700k, 12th gen cheaper

    Unfortunately, only 12900k and 13700k is offered to me and I’m getting either one for less than 13600k if I buy through retail channels. 😉 Yes, depending on my thermals I may have to disable cores or hyper threading. But based on some articles, either one @ 125w limit does incredibly well...

    New Build -12900K vs 13700k, 12th gen cheaper

    sorry, you went on a huge rant and did not even answer my question. I’ve been building for over 20 years and am very up to date on hardware. As for what I mean by power/heat limitations, it’s exactly as said. I’ll be building an itx system and I’m acutely aware of how much power and heat...

    New Build -12900K vs 13700k, 12th gen cheaper

    As the title indicates, I’m able to grab the 12900k for $50 cheaper. From what ive read, 13th gen better imc for better memory over clocking and 4 slots of ddr5 @ good speeds. Regarding ipc, it’s almost negligible with 2-5% max at same speeds for my workload. I’m not going to overclock...

    Best Gaming CPU

    I read the same conclusion....... odd how it was interrupted as “maxes out pcie3.0 x16”. if anything, extrapolating that data means pcie 3.0 x16 still has some legs before moving up to 4.0 Is required

    Overwatch Pro is in Trouble for Livestreamed "Racism"

    First of all, f##k this guy. He is not Korean, just look at him. Multiple sources say he is an Isareli Colombian. https://www.esportsearnings.com/players/40620-eqo-josh-corona http://liquipedia.net/overwatch/Eqo...

    E-Cigarettes with Nicotine Can Damage Your Heart with Just One Puff

    I'm going to have to disagree with the consensus here; I thought the study was actually useful. 1) did anyone even read the JAHA article? 2) the journal did actually address other stimulants such as caffeine not increasing their cardiac biomarker, HRV. Furthermore, other forms of NRT...
