Intel Core i7-12700K Scores 800 Points in CPU-Z Single Thread Test
We have recently seen yet another performance benchmark leak for Intel's upcoming 12th Generation Alder Lake processors this time for the Core i7-12700K. The 12-core hybrid processor features 8 high-performance cores and 4 high-efficiency cores along with 20 threads running at 125 W TDP. The i7-12700K scored 800 points in the single thread CPU-Z benchmark which is just below the 825 points the flagship i9-12900K scored in the same test. The processor also achieved a multi-thread score of 9423 points which would put it just behind the Ryzen 9 5900X at ~9500 points. Intel is expected to announce the first Alder Lake desktop processors on October 28th with shipments beginning November 4th.

Unfortunately it sold out in less than a day so stock is very light on the ground! Go figure! So your cheap prices for 12900k is a pipe dream ! What was it, $589 US in qty of 1000, is a long way from reality ! Well it certainly is in the rest of the world! In the USA maybe less so .
The other 12700k and 12600k however are much better priced at $729 and $519 respectively ! Both are more than ryzen 5800x at $629 and 5600x at $449 and 5900X is $799.
There are heaps of Ryzens available and have been for quite a while .
Raptor Lake would be a much better investment prices will settle down on motherboards and ddr5 and win11 will be much better sorted ! Maybe even win10 too for big little cores!
Hopefully by then Zen 4 will be out, and they will be fully engaged in a price war . Hehe
