Intel Core i9-12900KS Review - The Best Just Got Better
Test Setup »Unboxing and Photography
The Core i9-12900KS ships in a large box that contains only the processor (no cooler included). The CPU itself measures 37.5 mm x 45.0 mm and is a more rectangular-looking processor, much like the LGA1366 before it.
Intel Socket LGA1700 has an intuitive installation process that should be familiar from many past LGA sockets. Trouble is that it comes with a different cooler mount-hole spacing than LGA1200 and the five different Socket-H series sockets before it, so you'll need to search for a compatible cooler or get an updated mounting bracket.
