Alas, the characteristics of this model are not striking

Rocket Lake is the code for the next line of Intel desktop processors. Those that make up the Core 11000 series. And despite the fact that they will still use the 14-nanometer process technology polished to a mirror shine, there is still some interest in them. First, the architecture will change: it is expected that Rocket Lake will be the first Intel CPUs that will not use the current Skylake architecture. Secondly, Rocket Lake will be the first desktop processors with integrated Intel Xe GPUs.

8 cores and 4.3 GHz. Intel’s Rocket Lake-S processor lit up in 3DMark

However, one cannot count on a special improvement in the basic characteristics, for obvious reasons. And this just demonstrates the example of the CPU, lit up in the 3DMark database. The processor received 8 cores and multithreading support, and its base frequency was 3.2 GHz. The maximum is 4.3 GHz. That is, according to the characteristics, this model is close to the current Core i7-10700 (2.9-4.8 GHz), but the maximum frequency is not amazing. However, it should be noted that the engineering sample was tested – in the product version of the CPU, let’s hope the maximum frequency will be higher.
