Alder Lake-S sample has 5.3GHz boost clock scores 11300 points in Cinebench R20
It's a rumor of the highest category this one, but a Chinese forum user claims to have a sample that reaches a boost clock speed of 5.3 GHz. At the end of this year, Intel will introduce the CPUs of Alder Lake; samples info will get leaked sometimes.
In any event, Core i9 12900K in question is an overclockable CPU with 8 Golden Cove cores and 8 Gracemont cores (BIG.little). In Cinebench R20's multi-threaded test he'd score about 11,300 points, which is 10% fasterer than a Ryzen 9 5950X.
The boost clock of 5.3 GHz is lower than expected, previously there were rumors of a boost clock of 5.5 GHz. The qualification sample designation means that it should perform more or less the same as the actual production model, while further improvements are possible for an engineering sample.
Twitter-based YuuKi AnS, says it does not yet have the full potential of Alder Lake, Windows 11 would be needed. This may have to do with the task scheduler since Windows 11 should better be able to handle CPU cores of various sizes. In addition, the frequency of the clock may still improve.

I still have one in my backup pc. Having a 6c/12t cpu in 2010 was beastly. Shame it lacks avx instructions.
The i7-980X was insanely future proof, but came with an equally insane price tag.

My soon 4 years old delidded 7980xe @ 4700mhz (49ns memorylatency) has been and is pretty futureproof still
Pretty much the same Cinebenchscore as my 5950x, more pci-e lanes, still fast in gaming ( faster than Ryzen 3900x tweaked)
It was pretty expensive, but if it will live 8 years, then the value is pretty strong! 4 years soon, and the performance has been VERY good all the time.

"same" performance as 4 years old 7980xe :p. That can't be futureproof
Dualchannel memory and max 3800mhz, few pci-e lanes, ddr4 is soon eol...
PS: I have 5950x, and I don't think it's futureproof at all. But hey, the performance is pretty good today.
