What is 11th-gen Rocket Lake?Thanks to endless leaks, almost everything you need to know about Rocket Lake-S is already out there. The gist is that Rocket Lake is the last lap for Intel's aging 14nm manufacturing process, first introduced in 2014—yes, sev...
Like all things, the impact of Rocket Lake's power consumption depends on what you do. For most gaming and general use, the uptick is not a big deal. However, if you intend to hammer all cores on your PC all of the time, Rocket Lake will exact a heavy tol...
We wish we had a clean-cut simple conclusion and answer for you in your processor options, but never has there been so much competition on the desktop processor front to hand out a preference to either brand. However, with Rocket Lake, Intel not just incr...

This is a bit of a different review for us. Still, we wanted to both provide some context in terms of Linux performance along with real-world gaming performance. While other sites will have dozens of benchmark charts in different games, we instead had a s...

I think it's safe to say that Rocket Lake is not everything that Intel would have wished for out of their 11th Gen desktop parts, but after the Ryzen 5000 Series launch they had to do something. Sure, we have enjoyed lower pricing on Intel's retail parts...

Abstract: Today's the day that we can finally talk about the performance of Intel's " Rocket Lake " processors under Linux. The past several weeks we have been extensively testing the Core i5 11600K and Core i9 11900K processors under Linux. Here is a look at the v...

For anyone buying a new system today, the market is a little bleak. Anyone wanting a new GPU has to actively pay attention to stock levels, or drive to a local store for when a delivery arrives. The casual buyers then either look to pre-built systems (whi...

Finally, after what feels like an age the 11th Generation Rocket Lake Intel processors are upon us, designed for the Z590 chipset which finally brings the PCI Express 4.0 technology to the Intel platform. Whilst there are a few other elements which might...
The Rocket Lake lineup is an interesting addition to the Intel product stack, no doubt in response to AMD and their continuing gains in the desktop CPU market. With the continual delays they have encountered with their 10 nm node, Intel couldn't very well...
