Intel Core i7-11700K "Rocket Lake" Shows Up on European Retailer for 469€
The upcoming Intel Core i7-11700K "Rocket Lake-S" desktop processor showed up on European Retailer Mindfactory.de as a pre-order, listed at 469€ (including VAT). This is a huge step up from the retailer's current selling price of the i7-10700K "Comet Lake-S" of 317.50€, although roughly in line with its launch price. The i7-11700K is an 8-core/16-thread processor, which steps up performance over the previous-gen using the updated "Cypress Cove" CPU cores that come with increased IPC. The processor features a maximum Turbo Boost Max 3.0 frequency of 5.00 GHz, and 16 MB of shared L3 cache. The chip is differentiated from the top-dog Core i9-11900K only by frequency, with the flagship chip featuring max boost frequency of 5.10 GHz, along with the Thermal Velocity Boost feature. The Core i7-11700K comes in a simple paperboard box that lacks an included cooling solution.

That 469€ is more likely a preorder price, higher than it ends up being just to make sure retailer does not lose money.
Found this pricing posted somewhere else in USD
Previous releases wise doubt we'll see much drop seeing covid/ tariffs... are in play lucky if it's 5-10% either way
Just because some site throws up a pre-order doesn't mean it's going to happen way too much fake news
10900k 10 core 420.us last I saw we'll say 480.us for good measure it's what I got mine for off micro center.
7900-9900x 10 core 1000.us
10900x 10 core 500.us
7980-9980xe- nearly 2k.us
11980xe 800.us last I saw we'll say 900.us for good measure.
It also happens to be the site which is open about its sales statistics.
The problem it seems, is in some users who feel lower back pain seeing how AMD products wipe the floor with Intel's in part of the market where shady practices in regards to OEMs do not work.
Luckily for Intel, OEMs control lion's share of the market.
The reason Mindfactory DE is in the news so often is because they are one of the very few retailers that sometimes give pretty graphs with their sales. Not because it's relevant on a global scale.
Maybe time to get a 10700K.
5800X price is ridiculous, and Intel is going to be even more ridiculous with 11700K...LOL... I just bought a 10700 for my son for €220 ... now they are going to sell an 8 core for $600 ?
Welcome back, Intel.
