DDR5 4800 is just the starting point
DDR5 will be hitting some big speeds for sure, give it time.
Decent improvement already around launch with that 6400 cl36, guessing even just 6 months should bring even better again.DDR5 4800 is just the starting point.
DDR5 6400MHz is already been tested and passing, so the speeds will ramp up massively!
Remember DDR4 first hit at like 2133MHz with very poor latencies. We now have DDR4 at 4000MHz plus with tighter latencies.

If all this is true im saying bye bye to Alder lake and waiting on Raptor lake. No interest in upgrading to W11 atm, the cost of the upgrade is phenomenal.Info leak from Chinese guy who uploaded benchmarks of the 12900k
list of claims:
* big.little doesn't work in windows 10, in windows 10 half the 12900k cores get disabled
* All new boards supports only DDR5 or DDR4 exclusively, nothing hybrid
* PCIe5 on z690 is only supplied to 1 GPU slot, all other board slots and m2 connectors are PCIe4. You likely have to wait for Raptor lake to use a PCIe5 Nvme drive
* Maximum temp before throttling is 108c. z690 chipset doesn't run hot, all boards feature passive cooling
* Disabling the Little cores in the Bios does not lower power draw, but allows the Big cores to clock higher.
* 12900k is able to reach 5.2/5.3ghz all core OC on the big cores. Little cores can't be OC'd
* RAM performance on games isn't great with DDR5. To beat 3600 CL14 DDR4 game performance he had to overclock his DDR5 kit to over 8000mhz
How about leaking dripping gaming benches?Leaks leaks I want gaming benches...
Do we know yet if the 12900K will draw more power than the 11900K?
I'd assume so, given the 8 extra lower clocked cores.

I see AMD is jacking up prices for the 5600x.... it's now 300 quid again. Is that really smart of them in the face of alder lake coming out within weeks?
