Intel Core i9-12900K Beats AMD Ryzen 9 5950X in Leaked Geekbench Score
We recently saw the Intel Core i7-12700 appear on Geekbench 5 where it traded blows with the AMD Ryzen 7 5800X, we have now discovered the flagship Core i9-12900K also making an appearance. The benchmarked Intel Core i9-12900K features a hybrid design with 8 high-performance cores, 8 high-efficiency cores, and 24 threads running at a base clock of 3.2 GHz. The test was performed on a Windows 11 Pro machine allowing for full use of the Intel Thread Director technology paired with 32 GB of DDR5 memory. The processor achieved a single-core score of 1834/1893 in the two tests which gives it the highest score on the official Benchmarks coming in 12% faster than the Ryzen 9 5950X. The processor also achieved an impressive multi-core score of 17299/17370 which places it 3% above the Ryzen 9 5950X and 57% above the previous generation flagship 8-core i9-11900K. These leaked benchmarks highlight the impressive potential of Intel's upcoming 12th Generation Core series which is expected to launch in November.

I mean we have ARM chips, we also have different energy saving options already in the existing chips.
How would Alder Lake improve on these?
Geekbench is as relevant and biased as all the other tests, the games, for example, are also heavily optimised for the Intel CPUs, and not for AMD's.
Some apps favour the Zen microarchitecture, the rest favour Intel's microarchitecture.
Can't wait to see real tests of the new Intel CPU's
and 90% of the market has zero to do with the claim that was made for which explanation was asked.
Isn't intel told us in pass, what benchmark don't represent real word score?
And now, then they have won in few scores they clapping hands
Sad very sad news
2)Alder Lake for desktops lacks AVX512, this means a 10% (I think) disantvantage compared to Rocket Lake in GeekBench.
3)12900K might or might not beat 5950x, but the real challenge should be to beat or match 6900x (or whatever 5900x's successor might be named), 8P+8e cores should perform like 12 big cores. 13900K will supposedly launch close and compete to 6950x. All this in theory, because at the end pricing will determine ranking and comparisons...
wouldn't that be slower than 11900K at 5.3ghz ?
I'd take a Zen5 core to one whole CCD if it was to be 2-3 times faster than Zen3 in single thread while having SMT of 4 or more. I'll take what ever older Zen3/4 core they want want shrank in the same node next it for low power; But that's only a Dream lol
3%? well that's impressive ...(yeah i know ... 24T vs 32T):wtf: 12% single core? a bit better but still ... wait and see is the deal ... as long as Zen 4 is not out ... i see zero point in these "it beat XXXX current gen by xx%!"
i would not be surprised of Intel getting "Intel'ish" and pricing these new one for the end of the year above the current offer to cash in on early adopter
oh well ... with a bit of luck i can strike a 5800X (5600X more likely) on the cheap once it happens, that would still be a worthy upgrade even without changing mobo.
For you reference, AMD's 2021 Q2 notebook market share is 20.0%.
And the leak suggests 350W for "run full"
Are they making another x299 ?
It also make sense that the future Ryzen 7 core have a TDP up to 170w, Right now AMD have to bin those like crazy and only get the real best as they have the same power as the 8 core. This will allow AMD to ease on the binning either reducing *Their* cost and/or allowing them to produce more parts.
