VERDICT

Recommended Core™ i9-12900T

Reality check: only about 1% separates them—Core™ i9-12900T is a soft default, not a mandate. If AI Capability is your main lane, Core™ i9-12900T’s ~36% index lead is the actionable signal. Totals say Core™ i9-12900T; obsessions say audit Gaming Index, Value Index for Core™ 9 Processor 273PTE. Match your cooling and board budget to up to 4.9 GHz, 16 / 24, 30 MB L3 cache. Match your week against by 36% on AI Capability, Compute Index up +7%—that is the practical test. Happy building—may this save you one wrong click in the cart.
