Product description

Note: the Intel Core i9-12900K has an Intel LGA1700 socket. Make sure your motherboard has the same socket or your processor won't work.

Bring your PC to the next level with this ultimate upgrade kit, which contains the Intel Core i9 12900KF CPU, Gigabyte Z690 AORUS ELITE AX motherboard, and 32GB of DDR5 RAM. These components are compatible with each other and work together seamlessly. The Intel Core i9-12900K is one of the most powerful processors of Intel's 12th generation. This i9 CPU has 16 cores and 24 threads, so it's suitable for performing several intensive tasks at the same time. Think of professional video editing and 3D content creation, or a stream while you game. Thanks to the 3.2GHz base clock and 5.2GHz turbo clock, the processor is also suitable for high-end gaming. On the Gigabyte motherboard, you have space for 4 M.2 SSDs, and you can create up to 128GB of DDR5 RAM. The heatsinks and temperature sensors get rid of hot and warm air well. This way, your components are protected well and you always know when your motherboard starts to become too hot. You can get a 2.4Gb/s maximum internet speed via both the LAN port and the built-in WiFi 6E module. This way, you'll always have a fast internet connection. Lastly, you also have 32GB of DDR5 RAM on the motherboard. These 2 Kingston FURY Beast modules of 16 GB have a 5200MHz clock speed, so they're 63% faster than a 3200Mhz DDR4 module. In addition to the high clock speed, this new DDR5 module has better heat distribution, so the lifespan stays guaranteed. Do you want to try to overclock? Thanks to the Intel XMP 3.0 support, you set 2 custom speeds in addition to the standard one. This way, you'll always have the right settings for your setup.
