Look at the difference in 0.2% lows, +82%
The difference between 4C/4T and 6C/12T, but even the 1600X is heavily CPU limited.

20% of the price though.
Cinebench 23 is comparable to what Custompc got - 22466, but don't know what speed ram was usedThe Intel Core i7 12700K will be the most interesting new Intel Processor. At 160 watts, the consumption is outperformed by the 10900k or 11900k. 22689 Points in Cinebench 23 and 8658 in Cinebench 20 with DDR5 4800.

(Although would suggest it was probably 5200 as they review 2 sets in the same issue)
Nope. Apparently the Corsair UK Site had them for all of 5 minutes around midnight before they immediately sold out!! Even more annoyingly, I was awake...at my PC...F5'ing the Corsair sites.....I just didn't happen to refresh within that tiny 5 minute window!! Arrgghhhh!!
Corsair really have dropped the ball on this one and the CS reps on their own forums and reddit and their online support have gone into hiding!!

115 watt for 12600k, not bad. My 5600x pushes 100 watts at 4.7.
What is the issue number of the custom pc magazine? I have access to subscriber magazines as part of my Hampshire library services account (free if you join a local library) and can "borrow" for free most UK magazines and can see the December issue of Custom PC there but no Alder Lake review noted in this issue!
Im going for it guys, pre ordering the 12600kf for now, then will decide what to do about the board, and also to hear back from EK about aio brackets
It's issue 220 - January 2022
Guess you won't get to play with your new CPU on one day then, whats the plan? I'm on a H150i none XT, having to get a Capellix just so I can use the standoff you can't get.
Not Impressed with "160 watts" that's still very high, the performance tho, at least in Cinebench is very nice.
I'm hoping it performs well on ddr4 as really can't stretch to ddr5 money at the momentI don't think you'll be disappointed - best i5 released since the 2500k apparently
