## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ What I'd call a "golden" generation of CPUs
*by T***  on August 12, 2025*

Finally decided to build my own PC this summer, and I knew I wanted a 12th gen Intel processor, given my laptop was sporting an i7-1255U (a surprisingly capable "mobile" processor!), and it did everything I needed just perfectly. I believe this was the first generation Intel started doing the whole P-Core and E-Core thing, and man did it pay off. Even running large VR games w/Ray Tracing mods, this processor doesn't really break a sweat (maybe due to me installing an extra fan on the CPU cooler, but credit where it's due). Assuming you have a GPU (this DOES require a dedicated GPU, as connoted by the "F" in the name), this is probably the best GPU on the market; great price, amazing multipurpose performance, and very much still relevant even three years hence. Really impressive!Haven't even touched the overclocking capabilities yet, and even then it still punches way over it's class so to speak.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ great processor
*by J***A on August 15, 2025*

such a good processor.. the price to performance is insane.. temps also great.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works great.
*by N***I on July 4, 2025*

I'm using this CPU for volunteer grid computation. It absolutely churns through everything I throw at it super fast. Good overclocking performance, too. Best to use a liquid cooler since it can run a bit hot, especially during the summer months. Excellent value for the price.
