Alder Lake-S leaks

[Purgatory]

Which is my point. In the real world you won't notice a drop in FPS with the largest From intel or AMD chips.

Exactly.. this is why I find it strange some are moving from a highend AMD to this Intel ADL. For gaming... Total waste of money and time doing such an "upgrade" and then becoming a beta tester for Intel and Microsoft at the same time with windows 11 and this new chip design.

Once it all calms down and the beta testing is over, I want to build a 12700KF or K mini-ITX build as a HTPC/Gaming living room pc as I have a spare 3090 sat here as a spare for my work pc with 3090s in NVLINK. So I would like to get some use out of it too while it sits as a spare. Just waiting for more Z690 min-ITX boards to drop that I like, so far not many and not looking great too, may end up a Micro-ATX or Mini-DTX.


Have a feeling it may end up this X570 motherboard below and the new 3D V-cache AMD cpus for the build too.

Not today you won't, sure. But if you keep your CPU for 4+ years you're going to want something that holds up.

I must say the pricing is completely ****** in the PC market currently. 3 years ago I got my Asus Strix Z-390E for £220 and now a TUF costs that much. Insane.

It sometimes makes me wonder if Crypto currencies never existed and what it would be like today.

The 11900K was a piece of crap. Or as Steve Burke likes to say, a total waste of sand.

That Dave bought lol

Well he made one of these with his last CPU,




so guessing a new 11900k keychain soon.

no one should be upgrading if currently on AM4 to Alder Lake , Zen3d will probably take it back anyway and its on AM4 , I myself have the 5900x I will see what AM5 brings and see where Intel are at that time and decide also DDR5 prices and choice should be better

Agrred. What's especially amazing is the energy efficieny when gaming. You get the best gaming performance of any CPU to date, coupled with lower power consumption than Ryzen!

Zen3 is over 12 months old ? hardly amazing is it

Intel 10nm is 7 years old, pretty amazing how it beats newer tech isn't it

No its not and no its doesn't ^^^

That's just wrong but i want one, hope its was already dead.

Sorry but many do game at 4k. Loads more at 1440p

They know, we know etc. The whole point is to show what's possible with future gpus and give you an idea on what's possible if the cpu becomes a limiting factor. The lower the res, the more important this becomes. Not many people buy a whole pc setup for one generation of gpu.

Finally managed to build it up today, thankfully ram for a competitor turned up, only 4800 c38, but shall do for now.

Fairly amazing improvement from my 8700k @ 5ghz

Age of empires 4 utilizes AVX according to the minimum specs:
https://www.systemrequirementslab.com/cyri/requirements/age-of-empires-4/16657

Might be why it performs better with Alder Lake CPUs, than Zen 3.

Makes me wonder if this applies to other games that use AVX heavily too.

Are Z690 boards shipping with Multicore Enhancement on by default? If you turn it off, does that also put Intel PL1/2 limits in place? (I'm assuming PL1=PL2 tho)
