Intel Core i5-12600K 47% Faster Than Ryzen 5 5600X in Leaked CPU-Z Benchmark
The Intel Core i5-12600K is set to feature 6 high-performance cores and 4 high-efficiency cores running at base speeds of 3.7 GHz and 2.8 GHz respectively. These cores can boost to 4.9 GHz and 3.6 GHz with Turbo Max Boost 3.0 however we don't expect much more speed can be extracted out of them using overclocking so default performance with sufficient cooling should be close to max. We have recently seen some CPU-Z test scores for the processor from prominent leakers which show the chip scoring 746 and 7058 points in the single-threaded and multi-threaded tests when running stock on Windows 11. The processor was also tested with an unknown overclock on Windows 10 where it scored 79X and 72XX points respectively.
These scores are extremely competitive with them easily beating the Ryzen 5 5600X by 19.5% and 46.7% in single-threaded and multi-threaded tests. We still don't know where Intel will position the Core i5-12600K in the market so any judgment on the value of these processors will need to wait until release. While we don't currently know the expected MSRP for the Core i5-12600K we have seen pricing for the Core i7-12700K and Core i9-12900K at 469.99 USD and 669.99 USD respectively. Intel is expected to announce these Alder Lake desktop processors during an event on October 27th with general availability expected November 4th.

There are too much "Leaks" even the dumbest person on the planet would doubt if the "Leaks" are "Official ".
so I’m guessing 10 cores total?
Plus really, it better goddamn beat the 5600X, it's a ten core CPU, don't give a damn if it's an hybird of two architectures
Anyway, who cares that 5600x is 1 year old now? The people planning to get a new system will still be happy with this CPU as long as it provides better price/performance, which, in the end is the only relevant metric for a corporation.
i5 10400F w/B560 board and 3200mhz RAM > overpriced Ryzen 3600
i5 11400F wB560 board and 3200mhz RAM trades blows with the 5600x and does it for cheaper.
The yields must be a bit more tricky though in that scenario potentially, but they could just fuse off a bad little core here or there rather which is worse than doing so with a big core. I mean basically big LITTLE yield problems would you rather 1 big core be defective or 1 little core? The answer should be readily obvious of course from a manufacturing standpoint. Intel could sell a lot more chips offer better core count by focusing on the LITTLE cores.
well, duh.
Single threaded is nice, as long as the power consumption isn't blown out to stupid levels like the all core OC leak, they seem good
1)12600K beats 11600K by over 50% on CPU-Z MT.
2)It also beats 11900K and 5800X, speaking again for CPU-Z.
3)It works(?) on W10.It's not about bragging, it's about progress and competition. As a reminder the 7 month old 11600K was behind 5600X on CPU-Z MT performance. Competition should be good news fos us, end customers.
I wonder how long before AMD matches this with AM5, and throws a CCX with an 8 core zen 4 CPU (~105W) with a 4 (15W) core laptop variant and demands intel make the scheduler work for them too
