Intel Core i5-12600K CPU-Z Scores Show 50% Higher Multi-Threaded Results Than i5-11600K
Intel's upcoming Alder Lake-S lineup of processors is shaping up to be a rather good generational improvement. With wonders of the Intel 7 process, previously called 10 nm Enhanced SuperFin (10ESF), the processor lineup will deliver new hybrid technology, mixing new big and small cores into one package. Today, some new CPU-Z validation tests have shown up for the Intel Core i5-12600K CPU, which directly replaces the previous Core i5-11600K Rocket Lake model. With six high-performance Golden Cove and four efficient Gracemont cores, the Core i5-12600K CPU is a ten-core design with 16 threads. And compared to the 6C/12T i5-12600K CPU, the performance is much higher.
According to CPU-Z scores, the new Alder Lake processor scored 7220 and 7156 points for a multi-threaded benchmark in two tests. Compare this to the previous-generation model, which scores 4731 points, and the new chip is almost 50% faster. According to CPU-Z, the new CPU achieved this while running at a boost frequency of 4.5 GHz to 4.7 GHz.

can we not post this crap as news please
cpu-z is not a good benchmark for anything ...
And yeah while CPU-Z does not show much, it is something to think about before our official benchmarks arrive.
Honestly. Why are people having it so tough to extrapolate information from supposed leaks?
So far, it has been leaked that the Core i5 12600K might be superior to any previous mainstream platform Intel CPU. Yes, that includes the Core i5 11600K, and even Core i9 10900K and Core i9 11900K.
Is it good? is it bad? people can judge for themselves.
Lets see if gaming is Alder Lakes Achilles heel. I wonder if the smaller cores can be disabled
to limit gaming compatibility issues with the like's of Denuvo drm etc. That would be bad
if it needs to be disabled in order for older games to run properly.
The main reason Windows 11 was launched to get max performance from Intels new CPU +/-15% apparently.
hasn't conroe been intel's architecture for the last 10 years tho ?
Stop hating just because, think.
On the other side pl1 and pl2 states means to me 98 percent underdog and 2 percent king.
I know that's not the best thing for sales, but there is more to life than commerce and the price of a component.
It's 6perf * 2T/Core = 12 threads
+ 4low power cores * 1T/Core = 16 threads.
The 6 performance cores are SMT.
Having said that, if you look at the charts the results on other chips are about in line with what you would expect given what we know. Currently 11900K has the #1 spot for single thread, followed by 5950X and 5900X. On multi-thread, the 11900K is virtually tied with a 5800X. So yeah, there could be something really wrong with this chip in this benchmark that makes it an outlier of some kind that is possible - but it's highly unlikely. Fact is the 12600K will probably demolish everything from previous generations on single thread and should beat the 5800X on multi-thread. This probably means prices on all lesser chips are about to drop.
But especially me with midrange Intel and somewhat lower range AMD PCs.
