  Last i checked its usually over ~$850 correct? If so this is a great deal, rip wallet though.

  Side note: centrecom no longer does free shipping over $79, its now capped at $5 shipping.

  For the price might as well go 13700K? Similar perf, TDP, but much better memory controller on 13th gen.

    LuslecGrace on 11/11/2022 - 22:44

    True, I think that could be a better choice.

  How would this compare to a 13600k for 3D rendering/Premiere Pro in a ITX build (Ghost S1)?

  Possibly 13600k for lower temps, right?

    Here u go https://gadgetversus.com/processor/intel-core-i5-13600k-vs-i…
    Scroll down till u see cpu benchmarks.

    (I'm not sure if this site is trusted as i couldn't find anything about it online, but i gave it the benefit of the doubt)

      Thanks! Sounds like for a tiny itx build probably an i9 is a bit overkill.

  i'm trying to understand these processors… i have a ryzen 5700x + b450m mobo. How is this worth so much more than a 5700x? It's only 10% faster.

  • 

    greatlamp on 12/11/2022 - 00:01

    Closer to 25% faster

    joonjac on 12/11/2022 - 04:13

    10%? No way, much faster than that

  • 

    Aildaris on 12/11/2022 - 10:33

    8 core 16 thread on the 5700x and 16 core 24 thread on the 12900k is the biggest difference.

  13700k is cheaper and faster

• 

  javawoo on 12/11/2022 - 04:01

  Remember this is better than 7950x in games

  • 

    LuslecGrace on 12/11/2022 - 09:36

    The 7950x has 64MB of L3 cache, as opposed to the 30MB on the 12900k, so doesn't that mean 7950x is better in games?

    • 

      javawoo on 12/11/2022 - 14:07

      12900k is faster

      • 

        LuslecGrace on 12/11/2022 - 14:07

        In games? Or productivity?

        • 

          javawoo on 12/11/2022 - 14:09

          @LuslecGrace: game only.

            LuslecGrace on 12/11/2022 - 14:10

            @javawoo: I saw a couple of benchamrk videos and it shows the 7950x at least faster in 65% of the games.

  The 13700K has the same number of cores and is cheaper and faster in every respect as the i9-12900K.. and suits the same socket / motherboards.

  8 performance cores with HT and 8 efficent cores,

  https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/736446

  You would have to be a fool to buy i9-13900K over the i7-13700K, unless you really wanted that i9 sticker. / bragging rights..
