06 January 2022
That's for a single core - it can sustain 5.2GHz on all performance cores.

does it ship with a water chiller to keep the temperatures under control?

    How about 6 GHz 12100S or 6 GHz 12400S?

      SO YEAH. I would absolutely agree that upgrading for example from the i7-3570k to the i7-4790k was a silly idea as it brought maybe 10~12% boost. but let someone grab an i7-11700k from i7-3570k and it's a massive boost.

        *Whistles* Pretty impressive for STOCK clock speed.

          Just purge X86 from the face of Earth, both Intel and AMD are colluding to bring pathetic +10% annual performance increases with the dated and hopeless x86 architecture.

          This is literally holding progress from 2014 to 2019 intel made a measly 25% performance gain ....fuvvvk

            Increase CPU click doesnt make it better...shame on Intel cause they never reveal things right and dont get lower than 7nm anyhow.

            AMD still better bang for the buck, better overall and you can have a lower clock, more cores and overall lower temperatures.
