The reviews on Intel s new Rocket Lake processors are out, revealing a huge boost in performance to compete against AMD s Ryzen 5000 series. The chips are said to show a significantly improved performance compared to their predecessors, not only in overclocking but also in thermal temperature.
For a while now, gamers have opted on buying AMD processors for their cheaper prices and high specs performance. However, Intel is making its comeback with its Intel 11th-Gen Core i9-11900K and Core i5-11600K. The chipsets have been tested and came out with some amazing results.
The Rocket Lake Core i5-11600KF is a 6 core with 12 threads that have clocks speed of 4.9GHz on a single and 4.6GHz across all cores. However, TVB will not be available on SKUs below the Core i9 line-ups, so gamers should not expect to extend frequencies that limit the Core i7 and Core i5 SKUs. Moreover, it will feature 12 MB of L3 cache and 3 MB of L2 cache. The Core i5-11600K will be replacing the Core i5-10600K that has a retail price of around $260.
On the other hand, the Intel Rocket Lake Core i5-11400F is a locked and non-K 11th-generation desktop CPU with six cores and 12 threads with a similar core configuration as the Core i5-11600K but with lower clock speeds of 4.4GHz on single and 4.2GHz on all cores. It also has a standard 652 PL1 and 125W PL2 limit.
