Intel Desktop Core i5-12400 Processor (2.5GHz, 18MB, LGA1700) box

The Intel Core i5-12400 (boxed) provides a great balance of price and performance for those seeking a mid-range processor. With 6 performance cores, 12 threads, and support for both DDR4 and DDR5 memory, it is versatile for gaming and productivity tasks. The inclusion of the Intel Laminar RS1 cooler makes it a convenient option for users who want an all-in-one boxed solution without needing to buy a separate cooler.
