Intel Core i7-12700 Review: A good gaming CPU

We have published a complete article dedicated to processors Intel Alter Lake – 12th Generation Core. So, we look forward to seeing you in this article, and we are pleased to summarize the strengths and weaknesses of the Core i7-12700. This model has 8 high-performance cores (B-core) and 4 low-power cores (E-core). A hybrid structure that makes it possible to show 20, by hyper-threading on P-cores Texts At his counter. The base frequency is 2.1 GHz on P-cores and in some cases 4.9 GHz with the Turbo Boost Max 3.0 feature. Power cores are clocked at a base of 1.6 GHz and can reach a maximum of 3.6 GHz. In addition, the power consumption is lower than the K models, the base power casing is 65 watts and the maximum consumption is 117 watts. However, keep in mind that this maximum consumption will only be for a few minutes, as the K models are not fully open at this level. It peaks power consumption for a few tens of seconds during a heavy task, falling down and stabilizing while the task lasts. This has the effect of reducing performance after a few seconds. However, it is possible to avoid this effect on some high-end motherboards, which allows the processor to continue to malfunction – within thermal limits, however – it acts as the “K” version.
