Apparently this chip has a multiplier range between 8.0 to 50.0, a nominal clock speed of 3.40 GHz, and 4.30 GHz boost. The CPU-Z screenshot also confirms AVX-512F ISA support. In all likelihood (given that this chip has Rocket Lake's maximum core-count of 8-core/16-thread), this ES could very well be the Core i9-11900.

10 Comments on MSI to Add Resizable-BAR Feature to its Intel 400-series Motherboards
Should Nvidia help AMD with RTX as well?
Seriously what is wrong with you?
The only thing AMD did wrong her is limit this tech to their latest gen products and not those that came before….and now it seems that those before simply arnt able to do this.
The reality is AMD and NVIDIA are much the same. I'm not surprised, but some will go to great lengths to deny this. I really, really doubt this. Seriously? That company is all over the place lately.
