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
Abstract: Not that long ago we took a long hard look at the Intel 10th generation Core i series and walked away fairly impressed. The combination of upwards of ten cores at blazing fast frequencies with rather reasonable price tags did make them a viable option. Th...
Abstract: Late last week, we brought you some scintillating performance numbers for Intel's upcoming Core i9-11900K Rocket Lake-S processor, which is rocking what should be the company's last hurrah for the 14nm process node on the desktop. Besides a shift to Cypre...
Abstract: Preview of Next-Generation “Rocket Lake” and “Alder Lake” Technologies for Leadership Desktop and Mobile Platforms Intel also demonstrated next-generation desktop technology for gamers and enthusiasts coming to market in 11th Gen Intel® Core™ S-series des...
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...
I didn't go into this review expecting Rocket Lake to reverse the damage that has been done to Intel's market share all-in-one swoop. For me, Rocket Lake shows progress more than anything, a swan song (hopefully) to 14nm and a push forward to bring their...

Abstract: It's here! Intel's long awaited 11th generation i9, sporting a 19% IPC improvement, all new Cypress Cove cores, higher boost clocks and faster 3200MHz memory support out the box, and PCIe Gen 4 too! That 19% number isn't just marketing either, in my testi...
The absolute best CPU gaming performance, Support for PCIe 4.0,
Very high price, Only marginally more powerful than cheaper alternatives, Multi-threaded performance can't compete with AMD,
The Intel Core i9-11900K may be the most powerful processor in the world when it comes to gaming, but it's only marginally superior to alternative chips that are significantly cheaper. And with AMD continuing to dominate the desktop processor market for c...
