Just sharing my views on this processor.
I always thought about i5 as slow processors, but I was checking the benchmarks and its amazingly fast and in gaming some cases even defeated i9 13900k
Intel Core i5-13600K Review | PCMag
The single core performance is really strong almost (slightly less) around Ryzen 9 7950X.
And now the prices are reasonable. Intel has done a great job with raptor lake 13th gen
Yes very good cpu I just upgraded to a 14700k today. But I might not have if I had a Z motherboard and could overclock.
I think I made the right choice going with 13600K with my NR200P Max and 4060FE. But man, I’m still fomo’ing hard on 14th Gen (I know, I know, it’s just a refresh with marginal performance), especially i7 and i9.
Same here! It runs so smooth! And with undervolting the temp stays cool at under 85degrees in cinebench24
I paired it with an 4090 :D just thinking of upgrading my mobo from B series to Z so i can overclock it
I prefer AMD lately , but I’ve been still been saying that 13600k is the best all around price:performance cpu out right now
Before the 7800X3D came around, that was the gaming CPU to recommend. It matched the 7700X in gaming and destroyed it in productivity performance.
It’s honestly still worth recommending if you want a more stable and balanced experience with your computer.
The high temps i’m sure can be mitigated with good cooling, but what about the high power consumption? Surely that’s a strike against it.
Does the processor or the 13th gens cpu also experience the 12th gen bending issues?
Do we need to also install Intel CPU contact frame?I’m thinking of buying the 13600k or the R7 7700 or r9 7900.
This issue and the AMD’s power efficiency is the only thing that keeps me from choosing Intel.
