  • I've had it for about a month and a half, no complaints for its category, it works without a graphics card, so far everything is good without crazy consumption and temperatures. I'm coming from an i3 5th generation, it's like day and night in speed and everything...

  • Excellent processor. I have it without a graphics card, and the games I run go exceptionally well with a combination of 32GB DDR5 RAM. !!! Value for money !!!!

  • Amazing CPU, very powerful and with good temperatures.
    I didn't get the F version because I need it to be able to boot with the onboard graphics for emergency situations.
    Also, I didn't go for the more expensive 12500, because neither the 730 nor the 770 are suitable for gaming, only for basic tasks (if you want onboard gaming, go for the AMD 5600g).
    The stock cooler is useless for this one, you should set the BIOS to not exceed 65W, otherwise it easily reaches 90 degrees with the fan working at 3,000 RPM.
    With a high-quality aftermarket cooler like Noctua or Be quiet, the differences are huge, everyone reaches 4.4GHz with temperatures not exceeding 65-70 degrees and fans running at a maximum of 1,000-1,400 RPM.
