Rocket Lake Review: A waste of sand...

I wonder if Intel will make one more 14NM CPU line and called it Titaniclake!

I don't know why we're even still on lakes tbh. There used to be a new code name second part with a new architecture.
This is the first new arch since skylake. And even alder lake is still a lake for some reason after that.

Nope, because only the fanboys, bloody-minded and badly informed even entertained this hot garbage to begin with.

Look at that Dave chump as a prime example. Bleating on from the beginning about how Rocket Lake was going to destroy everything, was proven to be wrong time and again, retorts with outright trolling yet is still buying the 11900K, defending his purchase with "but I have lots of money now, so ner".

That is the sort of idiot Intel is targeting, and that is the sort of idiot who swallows it all down.

Even the I have loads of money argument makes no sense. If you have loads of money you want the best, this is not the best
 
If people keep buying revision after revision then Intel will get away with it.
However I think the tables have turned with AMD and now Apple etc.
 
Intel's bios is clearly still wonky, some 11th gen owners can't even boot up their PCs and some who can report constant BSOD

"Intel i9-11900k: Pathetic and Embarrassing"

The first word, as intended, says it all - Pathetic.

My suspicion was that this was and is just a cash grab from Intel. They couldn't go over a full cycle with leaving AMD to clean up and further erode Intel's sector share. They had to release something, anything to give their loyal patrons something to purchase. The fact that it is barely better than than the previous gen (and in many ways worse) doesn't come into it, it will still sell.

This makes no sense either, the boards have been physcially out for months and they've had the chips for months to get the BIOS ready, just sounds wrong on every level, i wonder if it is an overpowered issue.
