The upcoming 12th Generation hybrid Intel Core i9-12900K has recently made an appearance in the BaseMark database. The i9-12900K is a rumored 16 core, 24 thread processor with a combination of 8 high-performance and 8 high-efficiency cores. The BaseMark entry reports the processor as featuring only 12 cores which may be an error with the software not recognizing the hybrid processor or simply derived by halving the 24 threads. The chip was running at 3.2 GHz on an unknown Z690 motherboard from Acer codenamed Z69H6-AM with the latest Windows 11 22000.132 beta build. The processor was paired with an RTX 3080 and 16 GB ram achieving a score of 17,744 inline with other results with the RTX 3080. The 12th Generation Intel Core series is expected to launch in October with qualification samples already ready for board partners and OEMs.
