Intel s 12th Generation Alder Lake-S Desktop CPU has popped up within the CapFrameX database along with its first gaming test. The chip was spotted by Computerbase & is an engineering sample but was tested with a high-end desktop configuration which included the latest GeForce RTX GPUs and DDR5 memory.
Intel 10nm Alder Lake-S Desktop ES CPU Spotted & Benchmarked With DDR5-4800 Memory & 2.2 GHz Clocks
The Intel Alder Lake-S ES Desktop CPU has no labels and the CapFrameX software doesn t report its exact cores/threads but based on the 2.20 GHz base clock, we can tell that this sample has already done the rounds in benchmark databases. If this is in fact the same sample chip that we had seen before, then we can expect 16 cores and 24 threads but the boost clock is still unknown. We have seen faster Alder Lake-S Desktop samples which feature up to 4.6 GHz and 4.0 GHz clock speeds so this one is based on a very early revision.

The top configuration of Intel s next-generation Alder Lake-S Desktop CPU may just have been spotted in the Geekbench database. The entry was spotted by TUM APISAK and is a very early engineering sample with relatively low clock speeds but lots of cores and threads.
Intel Alder Lake-S Desktop CPU With 16 Cores & 24 Threads Based on 10nm Golden Cove & Gracemont Cores Spotted
The Intel 12th Gen Alder Lake-S Desktop CPU lineup will be featuring a mix-match of both Golden Cove & Gracemont cores on the same chip. This particular configuration that is spotted features a total of 16 cores and 24 threads. The actual partitioning of the cores consists of 8 Golden Cove cores with 16 threads and 8 Gracemont cores with 8 threads.
