Intel Core i9-11900K Debuts at PassMark as Fastest CPU in Single Core Performance


By the Hall of Fame of PassMark, the top-of-the-range processor Intel Rocket Lake-S has been seen, and this is none other than the Intel Core i9-11900K, an 8-core processor and 16 processing threads with a Base/frequency. 3.50 / 5.30 GHz turbo (4.80 GHz all cores) under the Cypress Cove @ 14nm +++ microarchitecture .

Without surprises in between, this leadership has been achieved thanks to its 5.30 GHz, which translates into 3764 points, so it proved to be 7 percent faster than the AMD Ryzen 7 5800X, and it is almost 19 percent faster than its predecessor, the Intel Core i9-10900K with the already archaic Skylake architecture.

When these 8 cores and 16 threads are squeezed @ 4.80 GHz, we have a score of 28,082 points, thus being just 2.2 percent slower than the AMD Ryzen 7 5800X. Interestingly, it is 16.6 percent faster than the Intel Core i9-10900K despite its 10 cores and 20 processing threads.

These benchmarks confirm what we already knew, that the Rocket Lake, and the Core i9-11900K, are squeezed to offer the best single-core performance possible to take the crown as the best CPU for the gaming market (marketing), although at the time of The truth is that AMD processors are much more complete, not to mention that the Ryzen 7 5800X can be 7% slower in gaming, but of course, consuming less than half the energy.

Really interesting processors are the Alder Lake-S for the end of the year, except that by surprise Intel throws the prices with the Rocket Lake, something that seems that will not be the case, so it is a jump-start by users.
