Meet Intel's new flagship CPU, the Core i9 12900K. It is based on the Alder Lake architecture and is reviewed here. This time around, Intel was back at the drawing board, creating a completely new architecture that appears to work as advertised. This platform is poised for the future with its incredibly fast performance, DDR5 memory, and PCIe Gen 5.0 interface.

Thanks for the review,cancelled my pre-orders 12900K,motherboard and ram. Lots of stock near me,I do not play games at 1080p but thinking maybe I should.

Making very large cores really pushed single threaded performance. Those large performance cores are going to be a thing we will all have to get used to. Its obvious we need single threaded gains and to do that is to make cores with many more transistors but those cores take up lots of die space and consume more heat. I was doubtful but I suspect this approach will take off seeing the results today.

Excellent review article @Hilbert Hagedoorn , nicely written and every bit of information is in there , thank you for the hard work.
Looking very good alder lake , amazing gains compared to rocket lake and vermeer. Only thing i dislike is the very high power consumption, needs at least 360 aio to shine.

This is how a new product should be: on the top of the table!
I'm glad Intel can pull this off, now we just need to wait for AMD's answer to this.
Damn I love competition!
