A decrease in core count
Does not really compete against AMD overall
Likely last generation on 14nm
Very high price for what's offered
Lower gaming performance than AMD Zen 3 and Core i9-10900K
Only eight cores (vs. ten on i9-10900K)
Application performance can't even match Ryzen 5800X
If you've got an old PC based on the 9th/10th Gen Intel processor… then it's time to consider an upgrade to the 12th Gen Alder Lake processor, which means you'll need a new Z690 chipset motheboard and a new CPU cooler (or upgrade your exisiting coole...

All the data we've gathered provides real insight into how AMD and Intel CPU architectures compared over the past decade for gaming. We've seen AMD come from nowhere to often beating Intel, while the latter has made smaller steps in pure architecture term...
AMD and Intel are the two significant players going strong in the current CPU market. While Intel had the undisputed lead throughout the 2010s, the situation might have changed the direction in the past few years. But when the Ryzen CPUs first came out in...
In our launch day review of Intel's Rocket Lake processors back in March, we dived into the defining factors of Intel backporting its 10nm into a working and usable 14nm desktop product. While the overall reception was mixed from media and users alike whe...
After last week's reveal of Tiger Lake-H, today's results put things into context for Intel's new high-end enthusiast mobile platform. The new design follows roughly 8 months after our initial coverage of the lower power “regular” Tiger Lake design and SK...

The Intel Core i9 11900K kept Intel in the competition zone. The performance is better than the previous gen and is still capable of providing enough processing power for your games and work. Related articlesGigabyte AORUS RGB DDR4 16GB (2x8GB) 4800MHz M...

Abstract: The P-State and CPUFreq "performance" governors on Linux with desktop Intel/AMD processors can be of help for gaming and other select workloads by tending to keep the CPU clock frequencies higher than the default ondemand (CPUFreq) or powersave (P-State)...
Great single-threaded performance, New Adaptive Boost technology, PCIe Gen4 support from the CPU
A decrease in core count, Does not really compete against AMD overall, Likely last generation on 14nm
Well this has been an interesting review. Typically when we review a flagship Intel desktop processor it is at the top of our charts and has increased in core count, but with the Core i9-11900K neither of those things are true. As I mentioned in the begin...

How much does the promise of 5 GHz all-core frequencies affect your opinion of Intel's 11th Gen launch? IPC gains were already significant over 10th Gen Core desktop, but AMD's single and multi-threaded performance is so good with Zen 3 that Intel has mor...
High pricing, High power consumption, Needs CPU cooler, Eight cores, Lackluster threaded performance, Gear 2 Memory Mode, Limited PCIe 4.0 Support
The Core i9-11900K is impressive in gaming and lightly-threaded work, but it trails the Ryzen 9 5900X tremendously in threaded work and doesn't cement itself well enough in gaming to justify the premium price tag...
