MSI SuperX Black
The 16-core i9-12900KF processor clocked up to 5.2GHz and a liquid cooling system provide strong multi-threaded performance for demanding tasks.

This system is best for gamers and streamers who need high CPU core counts for multitasking but will pair it with the RTX 4060 Ti for solid 1080p performance.
