Posted May 18, 2022 What do you use the PC for mostly? Gaming or CPU rendering or equal? If you use them equally, 3050 + 12700K is really bad choice. Go for 12600K + 3060 Ti. BTW, B560 chipset is for LGA 1200 only, I mean this chipset supports Intel 11th gen only. But Intel 12nd gen is LGA 1700, so they are not compatible.

Posted May 18, 2022 12700k and an RTX 3050 is a bit of a part imbalance, very high end cpu, midrange gpu. Most builds with a 12700k would involve a 3070 or better but this also depends on use case if you just need a more powerful cpu and not so much the gpu. For MSF you’d want a fairly even balance, I’d opt for the i5 12400 instead. The motherboard I presume is a typo, LGA 1700 is the right socket for 12th gen but B560 is an 11th gen chipset name, you want a B660 chipset, double check that. As well the 12700k has the “k” as it’s unlocked and meant for overclocking, the B660 chipset cannot overclock and if you don’t intend to overclock, get a non K processor as it’s just wasted money. Or if you want to overclock, get a Z690 board. Make sure whatever board you’re using supports DDR5, 12th gen is a transition generation for ram, there are boards for both ddr4 and ddr5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
