Before you buy or sell a used i5-12600K
Crucially for 12th-gen i5 buyers, the i5-12600K adds four efficiency cores to its six performance cores for a 6P+4E layout and sixteen threads, whereas the locked i5-12600 has only six cores. The graphics-free i5-12600KF is also a separate part.
Rated at 125W TDP with a 4.9 GHz boost and UHD 770 graphics, this Alder Lake chip ships without a cooler. Confirm your cooler has an LGA1700 bracket and check if your 600- or 700-series board takes DDR4 or DDR5.
