INTEL CORE I9-11900K

It may not have the most cores out there, and it might not be the fastest desktop processor around, but this is the best that you can get from Intel right now, and it still packs one hell of a wallop. With eight cores, plus 16 threads of pure backported 14nm performance, it’s a monstrous achievement, and credit where credit’s due, it still manages to keep up with CPUs of half its transistor size. Aside from that, it also comes with support for PCIe 4.0 drives right out of the gate, packs in a hefty max turbo speed of 5.3GHz, and actually boasts some rather impressive integrated graphics. You know, for when you sell your GPU to buy your next house. It’s also, more importantly right now, in stock, making it a valuable asset for anyone looking to actually build a modern-day gaming PC. www.intel.com
