Overall ratingVery good85/100
What counts in the end: Who offers the best package? And a super-fast processor alone is not enough. The test winner was Intel's Core i7-14700K. The 20-core processor was extremely fast, its graphics chip offered a decent speed and it left nothing to be desired in terms of energy consumption...
Good70/100
If you need a fast PC whose CPU temperature can be kept in check even without water cooling, the Core i7-12700K is a good choice. In multithreading tasks it is on a par with the more expensive but more economical Ryzen 9 5900X, and in office and gaming it is close on the heels of the 12900K.
Very good96/100

The Intel Core i7-12700K fits in perfectly with its competitors. If you want a bit more performance, you can get it for more money, apart from gaming.
Very good86/100
In the price range up to 500 euros, there is currently no better CPU than Intel's Core i7-12700K. Compared to its predecessor, it offers significantly more performance and consumes less energy. So number twelve also has all the prerequisites to become a future bestseller.
Very good88/100

Of the current Alder Lake line-up, the Core i7-12700K convinced us the most. The price matches the performance, the number of cores fits the current gaming line-up and the efficiency is better than the flagship. AMD's Ryzen 9 5900X is too expensive in comparison to the Core i7-12700K...
