Review: Intel Core i7 11700KF processor (RKL)
We're back at eight Cypress Cove cores, this we test a cheaper priced model, the Core i7 11700KF. Suffixes; K means it is unlocked, that F means better value as you can shave off a few bucks, this processor does not have its integrated graphics activated, and as such it has an MSRP of 380 USD. Will it be enough to take on the Ryzen 7 5800X battle?

AVX512 probably, a workload like .03% of applications use.
Where did Intel get this 19% IPC increase from? Most i have seen is 13.6 typically 12% but in real applications it's more of nill or in regression, a terrible product TBH.

it's a non issue if you know how sequential transfer numbers differ from actual every day peformance.
my plextor m9pe,a 2018 drive,running on z97 w. pci-e 2.0,had the same random r/w performance and app loading times as those new pci-e 4.0 drives.
sn850/980pro are the first drives since nvme became a thing that really made your experience better,with a new controller.otherwise you don't need 4.0
Think you misunderstood, some still need drives WD SN850, 980 Pro and even the slower Sabrent Rocket 4 Plus / Corsair MP600 Pro though.
For most mainstream app/game loading even SATA SSD's will do, no marginal difference there, hence why I use a big 870 EVO for games.
But even that will change in the near future.

They gained vs previous gen on cinebench and that doesnt use avx512.
The problem intel have is they have gone down the same path as the pentium 4 days, they stopped caring about power efficiency.
I maintain the view if they cannot release a good new product then they simply should not have released a new product, a "we working on out next thing, and its released when its ready" is better than releasing junk.
Thats the problem with modern tech companies these days, they seem to release on schedule rather than when something much better is ready.

Really?
With an NZXT X73 the package goes beyond 80C with default BIOS settings, so unless you tweak it will hit temperatures with a wraith prism that forces it to throttle down.
The same cooler keeps a 3700x and 4790K around 65C max at stock settings, so the 5800x is undeniable a CPU that can hit quite high temperatures.
5800x can be cooled on a stock wraith prism cooler and still be faster than these intel cpus.
