If you ignore power consumption, I'd consider this pretty good - it's only slightly slower than the 10900K despite lacking a pair of cores. But yikes... that power consumption is atrocious. I'm sure it's a similar situation to the Ryzen 3000 series, where roughly 15W are due to PCIe 4.0, but that only explains the higher idle wattage. Under load though, that's a whole other situation. It's pretty bad when CPUs with more than double the amount of cores are the only ones more power hungry.


Yeah, I agree. It's quite impressive from the old process technology and it's good Intel entered the PCIe 4.0 arena now, but the power consumption has got out of hand.

Why are most reviews ignoring the new iGPU? I mean, we are in a GPU shortage right now you think that would be important.

XDDDDDD

Pretty good in terms of what? Neither the 10600K nor the 10900K can beat their predecessors in gaming. And this was the ONLY reason why Rocket Lake was released: to get the throne back from Zen 3. Intel failed big time as it wasn't only able to beat their predecessors but also consume 45% more power when we speak of the 11600K:


This series is complete rubbish.

Rocket Lake is trying to make something good out of a bad situation. They got back what they wanted gaming from what I can see from various reviews. The fact they got this much out of 14nm is impressive. I'm surprised how well it competes with MT with less cores/threads too.

I think the lower parts are more interesting right now especially with the GPU shortage situation. I'd rather have Rocket Lake with its newer onboard GPU if I had to wait for a new GPU.

Looking more forward to Alder Lake

Funny guy you are.
