![]() 4, the group reiterated a month-old pledge to finalize the measure in the 'coming weeks'. ![]() More than four months in the making, G7 nations have yet to set the maximum price at which shippers from G7 and EU countries may legally transport Russian crude and products. With Intel touted to launch the hybrid Alder Lake-S processors on a new LGA 1700 socket in just six months from now with support for DDR5 and possibly PCIe Gen5, the company may have a tough time in getting to convince customers to go for a Rocket Lake upgrade.Receive daily email alerts, subscriber notes & personalize your experience.īut global oil markets remain in the dark over how the US-led attempt to slash Russia's oil revenues will play out even as the deadline for the G7 price cap and an EU ban on imports approaches on Dec. With the current uncertainty in CPU stocks showing no signs of abating soon, DIY PC builders aren't left with too many choices but to go for whatever SKU is available in stores. Ultimately, Rocket Lake-S's success will depend on pricing and availability. The reason for this higher 元 latency is not yet known, and we may have to wait till the official architecture presentation closer to launch to know more. The regression in gaming performance is likely to due to the higher 元 latency (51 cycles compared to last gen's 43) going up to 28-30 ns compared to 18-24 ns in Comet Lake. That, along with forced AVX-512, seems to have resulted in a bigger chip that tops-out at just eight cores and is more power hungry than its predecessors and the competition.Īnandtech notes that Intel's 19% IPC uplift claim isn't entirely false, but it applies largely to floating point workloads than the more common integer ones, where the benefits lie in the 7-13% range. Overall, the initial benchmarks seem to point out the disadvantages of backporting a 10 nm architecture to a 14 nm process. The performance difference between the Ryzen 7 5800X and the Core i7-11700K becomes even more apparent at resolutions lower than 1080p. In all gaming tests, with the exception of Gears Tactics, the Core i7-11700K seems to have been outclassed by the Ryzen 7 5800X, particularly at 720p and 1080p resolutions where the CPU often tends to become a bottleneck. ![]() However, Rocket Lake-S does seem to have a slight lead over Zen 3 in Blender and POV-Ray.Ĭoming to gaming, Anandtech's results show a regression in performance despite Intel's claims of a 19% IPC uplift over the previous generation. Incidentally, the Core i7-11700K scored way higher in AVX-512 loads than any other processor in comparison, particularly the AMD Ryzen 7 5800X.Įlsewhere, the Core i7-11700K is seen to trail behind the Ryzen 7 5800X in benchmarks such as Cinebench R20, 7-Zip, Handbrake 1080p30 to 4K60 H.264 encode, and web-based benchmarks. On a related note, many industry veterans including Linus Torvalds feel that Intel is pushing AVX-512, which is traditionally meant for servers, to consumer products as a gimmick just so that it can demonstrate a lead over AMD in such benchmarks. Shifting the load to AVX-512 shows the power draws rising to 292 W and core temperatures hitting 104 ☌ overall. ![]() Do note that Intel originally said that an "8-core Rocket Lake-S" will have a PL1 of 125 W and a PL2 of 250 W. An AVX2 workload such as POV-Ray causes the power consumption to rise to 200-225 W with a temperature peaking at a decent 81 ☌ and all-core turbo at 4.6 GHz. Though Intel lists the TDP of the Core i7-11700K as 125 W, there is no real upper power limit for turbo performance. Right off the bat, Anandtech's AVX2 and AVX-512 tests show increased temperatures and power draws. Do note that Intel hasn't seeded the final microcode for these processors yet, so minor performance improvements can be expected in the run-up to the official launch. We encourage you to read Anandtech's excellent review, but here are some key takeaways. Spoiler alert : The Core i7-11700K has turned out to be a disappointment, especially in gaming. ![]()
