Save Big On AMD Ryzen And Intel i9 CPUs At Amazon
Amazon is offering steep discounts on popular CPUs for gaming, including both 12th-generation and 13th-generation Intel processors, alongside a handful of powerful AMD models. None of the sales are advertising an end date, but we can't imagine these generous price cuts will stick around for long.
For folks unfamiliar with how Intel names its CPUs, all the products on sale might look the same. However, there's an easy way to decode product names like the Intel Core i9-12900KF. For example, the "12" in 12900KF indicates this is a 12th-generation processor. The 900 then indicates the exact model you're looking at, while the KF indicates this is a high-performance CPU (K) that requires discrete graphics (F).
In short, models with a "13" are newer than models with a "12." There's plenty more to learn about Intel naming conventions, and you'll find a detailed rundown on the company's website. Intel processors also differentiate between "P-cores" and "E-cores," which are short for performance and efficient cores.
