## Questions & Answers

**Q: Best of for child 3-5 years ?**
A: For a 3-5 year old kid, no because Fortnite and Roblox don't need this much power.
For a teenager with absurdly high standards and wants their computer running hot all the time, then yes it would be future-proof for 3-5 years.

**Q: Does it come with Avx-512 set instructions?**
A: Hello! Thank you for your question.
The Avx-512 is exclusive to the some Xeon processors. This being an i9 processor, does not count with that instruction set.
Thank you for choosing Intel.

**Q: does it come in the original packaging aka what is shown in the pictures?**
A: Exactly as shown in the pictures. Lots of pointless packaging. Personally I'd prefer it was packaged like the NVMe drive, but then packaging does not impress me.

**Q: How long will this cpu be relevant?**
A: Hi there. Thank you for your question. The 12th Gen Intel Core processors are the first based on Intel 7 process technology and the new performance hybrid architecture. They were launched in 2021 with a lot of advanced technologies to enable major performance gains across a wide range of today's PC workloads. Thank you for choosing Intel!
