    Amd back to budget corner. These prices gona fall ? Or maybe not because platform cost is big ?.


    Gotta love competition and progress this is looking good.

    Wish you could put this bad boy in B560 :)))

    seems like ddr4 is the way to go
    wonder what a 12400 w. my 4133 c16 sticks would do

    I just checked more reviews and it seems it has much worse power efficiency than Zen3, its actually not much better than rocket lake.
    That is kinda surprising, technically speaking it is not much of a progress.

    +30-40% over 5600x at same msrp not good enough ?
    i knew r5000 owners were gonna be disappointed by 12th gen,and the feeling only grew when it turned out 12600 just wrecks everything in gaming.

    found it

    100-120w with no power limit on 12900k
    wonder what 12600 will do,under 100w hopefully

    a bit high,but not terrible.especially given the performance.

    Performance wise yes. Efficiency wise it still loses to Zen3 , Wich i find surprising how power hungry they are.

    Depend if you care for wattage or no it can be deal breaker for some.

    Same boat. That is kinda most interesting. Post something if you find :)

    Im surprised by idle power consumption, i believed those small cores would shines yet it's not so good.

    @ 720p :D pretty sure the differences much less at "real world" resolutions.

    OK, so for those who want the highest fps for 1080p, this is it. The overall productivity results didn't fully impress me, it was really a mixed bag. However, it'll once again come down to software drivers for me. Intel are usually pretty good with that so I can see a potential hit amongst gamers and those looking for a more stable new-platform's initial offering.

    Well i know im defo waiting for 13th gen, hopefully they sort the power consumption and high temps, my 8700k will hold me out for few more years at least, by then even the 14th gen might be better to go for

    Don't think the drivers is relevant anymore when it comes to Intel versus AMD. My 5800x is very stable i'd say one of the most stable computer i've built ever. Did not crash on me once and did not get a single problem with it in 6 month. Also Intel GPU drivers are awful so not all their drivers are good. Those are very good CPU and certainly worth a buy but because of the hardware not software.

    Yep.
    It is more or less in the same price range with 5600X and it annihilates it.
    intel did it this time - time for AMD to lower prices for some CPU's.

    That IPC score is only given for Golden Cove. Is it possible to give a score to Gracemont as well?
