Pros and cons
According to our processor expert
- Thanks to the 10 cores and 16 threads, you can perform multiple demanding tasks at the same time, such as gaming, streaming, and extracting files at the same time.
- The motherboard's connection pins are reinforced, which makes the risk of overheating or overvoltage a lot smaller.
- With a 1.35V maximum voltage, the RAM modules are energy-efficient, even when you ask for a lot of performance.
- This DDR4 upgrade kit is not as future-proof as a DDR5 upgrade kit, and has half of the total RAM.
- This is an i5 CPU without video chip, so choose the i7-12700 or i9-12900 upgrade kits if you want to edit videos.
