Go and read the reviews, you're very wrong. Gaming power consumption is very, very good on these chips.
Look, igor even says so here (via Google translate)

On a 12900k? Some AIO's are struggling to keep the temps down. Depends on if you have a 1700 compatible cooler. Some of the "non compatible" coolers struggle to keep temps down.
Yeah I guess I am. Will just downclock when it hits thermal limits so will boost and give you the performance your cooling can deliver.
They are however potentially very power hungry when at 100% utilization. Intel can call their 14nm/10nm Intel 10 and Intel 7 but imo the TSMC 7nm is a far superior process and allows for better efficiency. All the cpus and gpus from the TSMC 7nm have excellent performance/watt and performance/watt still belongs to Ryzen.

Sorry misread - Thought he was referring to the 12900k. I've no info on the 12700k

I could, but means I miss the return window for my current 10400f and b560, only couple weeks old from the rainforest, so ideally if I'm going to do it, now would be the cheapest for me as the initial outlay would me much lower
Also got until the 20th to return, so could watch closely and see what happens with updates etc

We are looking at it from a broader sense than that, not everyone plays games only, all you need for that is a 12600K or a 5600X.
You would buy the 12900K or 5950X for its MT prowess, high load workloads, the 12900K is using over 130 Watts more power than the 5950X, twice the power consumption and the performance is no better.
Add to that AMD's CPU's are getting on for 2 years old, they are on a 4 years old 2 generations surpassed process node.
Its not good, but AMD do see it as threat and that is also not good because they have so much left in the tank and they may just push the "go nuclear" button for 5nm and if they do that... double the core count, IPC up by 30 to 40% and still on much less power than ADL Intel would be pretty much toast by this time next year.
As you know I’ll buy INTEL or AMD…..have had loads of different rigs over the years….
The 12900k doesn’t seem to offer much over my 5950X so I don’t really understand your post.
What the 12900k does offer over 5950x is more heat and considerably more power consumption.

Hope you haven't stripped down the 6700K yet! When's your 12700KF and Mobo due, today? What's your score with this...

Is the ADL motherboard in stock?
There is hardly anything in it, as long as you have a cooler for ADL too and AM4 if you decide on 5800x.
Not a loyalist
Still mocking power use.
IPC wise seem to be just a hair ahead of Zen3. Some 10% overall performance core for core, thanks to higher clocks, at cost of higher power use.
Plus expensive new motherboards with useless Pcie5. Plus even more expensive new memory.
Are they really THAT great?
12600K is the best in price/performance in the new lineup, and it is basically equal to 5800X in most benchmarks. (Once AMD responds by dropping prices as they usually do, will be equal in price)

Do they do a 1080 or 1440 chart of equivalent?
My processor uses no power when switched off, which is pretty much the same amount of usage I use at 720p.

Jeez do they have a plugin bench suite for everything?
6700K system still up and running as I have active weddings I'm editing through still. Gonna run that now and report back!
Edit*
No idea on mobo, it's still on awaiting stock at OcUK. Cannot find it anywhere else sadly.
Edit2*
The LR Benchmark wants me to change various HDR/Panorama settings to its own selections which I don't want to do as it changes my preferred values and don't want to faff about with that again sadly. I will just compare the export time between this system and the 12700KF upgrade as I have already timed that.

I agree with you, the question is with everything in mind would you buy the 12600K?
Hmm so it seems there was more to the 8Ghz claim than meets the eye , looks like Gigabyte/Hicookie are trying to pull the wool over peoples eyes ... bad show from them and good on Derbauer for calling them out , no one likes a cheater
The new processors do look good though but not enough to sway me away from my 10900K for now considering the 0.1% uplift at 4k which is the resolution i game at

Provide links or stop trolling
Google "intel thread director" + your OS and you’ll find all the documentation, plus Z many links. Alder lake + DRM issues is insightful.
It says due for delivery on Tuesday the 9th.
Cooler wise, just waiting for EK to release a upgrade kit for my 280 AIO.
Would ADL offer me anything else over the AM4 setup ignoring DDR5?
