Despite a massive clock speed overclock of 5.2 GHz, the Intel Core i9-11900K barely matches the Ryzen 7 5800X & even loses to the AMD competitor in a few gaming tests. This is also similar to the previous performance numbers published by the same source. The benchmark results can be seen below: Intel Core i9-11900K vs AMD Ryzen 7 5800X vs Ryzen 7 5700GД¬oming to the gaming performance results, we see some really inconsistent performance that doesn't match the numbers we saw in the standard benchmark tests. Looking at the benchmarks, the Intel Core i9-11900K has faster performance than both AMD CPUs in both single and multi-core benchmark applications. The BIOS unlocks higher CPU performance on Rocket Lake CPUs but still has a few problems which will be addressed after the launch of the Rocket Lake CPUs. The source highlights that they were running the Intel Core i9-11900K on a Z590 motherboard using a newer BIOS than what is currently being shipped in retail. Intel 11th Gen Rocket Lake Desktop CPU Lineup Specs (Preliminary): CPU Name The CPU is said to feature a 1st stage power limit of 125W which is standard for a flagship Intel SKU and the 2nd stage power limit or PL2 is rated at 250W. This is partially due to the backporting of Cypress Cove on the refined 14nm process node. However, do remember that regardless of using the Cypress Cove cores, the Core i9-11900K will feature lower cores and threads than the Intel Core i9-10900K. This should lead to a single-core boost clock of 5.3 GHz making it the first CPU to ever hit such a high frequency out of the box. The chip will also feature Thermal Velocity Boost which should deliver a 100 MHz jump in the max clock frequency. In terms of clocks, the CPU runs at base frequencies of 3.5 GHz but as for boost, the CPU will feature a maximum boost clock of 5.2 GHz (1-core) while the all-core boost frequency will be maintained at 4.8 GHz. This will result in 16 MB of е…ѓ cache (2 MB per core) and 4 MB of L2 cache (512 KB per core). The chip is going to feature 8 cores and 16 threads. The Intel Core i9-11900K will be the flagship 11th Gen Rocket Lake Desktop CPU.
