are we discussing it here?

#

intel housefire inside

timber herald
#

yay

fringe wasp
#

might be the first time I've ever used this feature

barren hamlet
#

contain the fire i guess

fringe wasp
#

nice it puts both chats up

barren hamlet
fringe wasp
#

nah that's fine

#

it's like tweetdeck

misty summit
#

Is there any info on the cooling solution used in the grahic you linked @fringe wasp ?

faint ocean
#

You don't have to keep discussion in here, but I figured having a space dedicated to the launch might be good when #techdiscussion moves onto other topics.

and it still caves to 12900K

barren hamlet
#

Intel's going to have to have a talk with them

What time is release or is it already released?

@timber heraldwhile it was technically released, public links to that are a no-go until after the embargo.

I ain't fucking scared, I co-ran /r/VesselRips when that was a thing

#

I wanna see the Intel 12th Gen CPUs with DDR4, that's going to the most compelling value question

timber herald

#

oh shit

#

DDR5 ram is up in NZ

#

it ain't good

#

NZD$600 after tax for 32GB

timber herald
#

not the whole thing, ig we just have to wait for in depth reviews, unless someone else leaks another vid

holy crap ram prices in australia is so high

timber herald
#

then those board prices will raise in price

#

oh god

#

ya ig prices gonna be high

fringe wasp
#

Look, I'm just happy I didn't have to stay up till 2am for the benchmarks like the other times

cold breach
#

DDR4 benchmarks will make it or break it for value

#

lol it's 2 am for me

glad delta
#

ah hello

fringe wasp
glad delta
#

12900k ST is >1800

#

not the one in vide

#

r23

#

also CPUz 903 ST ambient

#

enjoy

timber herald
fringe wasp
#

For sure

#

But I ain't fucking staying up till 2am for that

timber herald
#

just wake up at time

fringe wasp
#

fuck that

glad delta
#

Daily remindern

#

Dont get ddr4 on alder

#

This is similar to SDR>DDR

#

Generational leap

cold breach
#

I'll believe that when I see the DDR4 benchmarks

glad delta
#

I've got one and its about 5-8% slower in fc6

#

720p

#

We will see at launch

timber herald
glad delta
#

Friend does

#

And has tested both

#

But I want to see launch day reviews

#

Architecturally ddr4 is a massive.bottleneck

#

Starves cores of.memory bandwith

misty summit
#

I personally just feel like I'd majorly hate myself if I were to get a new CPU/Chipset only to stay on DDR4. Seems quite short sighted to me

glad delta
#

Correct

#

You're lockinh yourself onto a memory that won't be improving

timber herald
#

just realized the ddr5 linus used was cl38...?

cold breach
#

Yeah, it's the first releases of DDR5, it's not going to be the most opitmized

#

Takes time to figure out how to manufacture it well

ripe carbon
#

what do you expect 6000mhz cl20 ?

cold breach
#

I mean it's new stuff, people are learning

timber herald
timber herald
#

the 12600k looking like a pretty value cpu

#

wonder how the non k cpus like 12400 will be like in terms of price to performance....

#

Reviews are out

flat vault
misty summit
#

reviews might be out, but decent DDR5 supply doesn't seem to be, at least in my country wkek

barren hamlet
#

can find 12600k's for like $400

forest steeple
#

I got 32GB of DDR5 yesterday

#

They're shit sticks but I got em

#

especially since apparently the price was raised

misty summit
#

CPU and Motherboards seem to be available at MSRP, just RAM seems hard to come by

barren hamlet
#

cheapest z690 is the z690 UD ddr4 for $230

misty summit
#

targeting the 12600k + Z690 UD DDR5 personally

forest steeple
#

I'm waiting to get my 12900k for like $300 eventually

misty summit
#

UD seems to be a great value pick according to TPU

barren hamlet
#

what do you need to cool the 12600k?

forest steeple
#

gotta offset these mobo cost

barren hamlet
#

oh man the cheapest z690 ddr5 mobo here is $420

manic parcel
barren hamlet
#

for an i5

manic parcel
#

yea...

forest steeple
#

If you game and don't push the power limits you should be fine with a mid tier cooler I think

barren hamlet
#

who doesn't push power limits

forest steeple
#

I mean, it looked to pull less watts during gaming according to LTT

flat vault
#

eh a $50+ air cooler probably will work

barren hamlet
flat vault
#

yeah

misty summit
flat vault
#

Fuma 2 probably should also handle it fine

barren hamlet
manic parcel
#

boards in the uk are going to be an issue.

misty summit
#

TPU has the 12600k running at 66° on a U14S, Fuma 2 shouldn't have any issues

barren hamlet
barren hamlet

#

looks a bit better over here

manic parcel

yea this is going to be a problem

#

thats the cheapest bundle

barren hamlet
misty summit
manic parcel
#

wait no, 700...

#

fuck that

#

ddr4...

#

829 is cheapest with ddr5

forest steeple
#

the board cost are honestly the biggest issue for ADL

#

5600x is obsoleted by 12600k except the boards cost a minimum of like $200 more

misty summit
#

Honestly, I'm not in a hurry, so might as well wait for more stuff to become available

#

don't really feel like buying some random RAM kit out of desperation

barren hamlet
#

why not wait for zen 3d or b660

misty summit
#

because both are considerably far away and noone has a clue how prices will look

forest steeple
misty summit
forest steeple
misty summit
#

how much did you pay for them?

barren hamlet
forest steeple
misty summit
#

seems reasonable overall. I'll probably just wait a few weeks and hope CPU availability won't be an issue

forest steeple
#

yea but like the price for it apparently went up already.

#

It's a bottom barrel kit but it was already increased by $10

barren hamlet
#

12900k hits 70 C with the liquid freezer II 360...

#

hot hot hot

forest steeple
#

in what load? In gaming i thought it used less power than a 5900x

forest steeple
#

Power consumption is always a shit show to measure

#

According to GN 12900k used less power than a 5950x in blender

pseudo furnace
#

Power benchmarks are always a shitshow

lyric nimbus
#

you guys reckon an AK620 can properly cool a 12600K?

flat vault
#

probably

#

it shouldnt be that hard to cool

#

not $30 air coolers but shouldnt require something like a D15

pseudo furnace
#

There are legit great $40 air-coolers tho, like pa120

#

Something high end can still be cheap

icy token
#

Be intel
Release new CPU that is faster in gaming than AMD at a better value
Stock up .055%
Be AMD
Exist
Stock up 3.5%

Hopefully

#

Retire 5th gen, release 6th gen with better perf and keep similar pricing

When launch?

hasty dragon
#

Look man

#

Major launch

#

I might just show up

#

I look at the benchmarks and go back into my hole

mint pine
#

When i9 12900k com out

manic parcel
#

depends if there is stock, right @hasty dragon

Iunno

#

12400 gonna be fire

mint pine

hasty dragon
#

No but based on 12600K

#

It's looking tasty

#

Idk how ddr5 oc is gonna pan out but adl is a great start

barren hamlet

#

800 pound for a base 12600k mobo bundle is a little harsh

barren hamlet
hasty dragon
#

Idk what ddr5 pricing is looking like either

barren hamlet
glad delta
#

Just wait

#

Don't get alder with ddr4 just wait for ddr5 price drops

#

I'm pretty sure they're gonna do the 3d cache for Ryzen 9 only for consumers and I'm almost certain its gonna be a $1000 starting price

glad delta
#

Oh yeah

#

Its complete.hopium

#

They sold out 5950x at what, 700?

#

What was msrp

forest steeple
#

simply because of the complexity, the extra die space, extra processing, and all the dead chips that go along with that new process

glad delta
#

Yep

forest steeple
#

5950x MSRP is $800

glad delta
#

Oh wow

#

1000 minimum for 5950xt

forest steeple
#

not even

#

5900xt 1000 min

#

5950xt still has plenty of room to move up between TR

#

wasn't the last cheapest TR like $1600?

glad delta
#

Theu have no incentive to price.5950xt anywhere close to 5950x

#

5950x sells out easily

forest steeple
#

yes so 5900xt $1000, 5950xt $1350

glad delta
#

But there's competition now

#

Wasn't competition for 5950x before

forest steeple
#

there wasn't competition for 5950x because amd priced it so high

keen carbon
#

I'm just out here trying to upgrade my i5 3570K and DDR3-1600 RAM

#

But DDR5 seems pretty unattainable and the cheapest Z690 mobo with modern IO is 300 dollars

#

Wondering if I should just buy a 12600K now to avoid any shortages.

#

And wait for the rest to go down in price and become available.

forest steeple
#

No buy it all at the same time

either GN or HUB for tech news videos for me but I dont really use video for news

Our Intel i5-12600K CPU benchmarks compare the 12600K vs. the AMD R5 5600X, R7 5800X, Intel i9-12900K, and more as we look for the best CPUs of 2021 for gaming, video editing, & more.

Hmm

#

Cache is important, but more cache doesn't mean free performance in all workloads.

#

Otherwise my old Broadwell Xeon would be performing even better than it does, though it's cache does help.

#

LOL why

manic parcel
flat vault
#

well for one, there are other outlets that do record a few % of difference between 10 and 11 in MT tests

#

but GN's results show 10 being faster, or on par across the board

#

so what is exactly 11's scheduler doing then

manic parcel
#

I can cherry pick data too

flat vault
#

Steve straight stated R15 results are not normal tho

manic parcel
#

I know.

flat vault
#

throughout the tests 11 vs 10 is basically... no difference

#

not that I have a problem with it

#

I'm just wondering how

manic parcel
#

its a feature update.

flat vault
#

I was referring to the supposed scheduler

manic parcel
#

there is very likely very little difference

#

early days,

flat vault
#

which basically does nothing

#

yeah it's either software needs to catch up

manic parcel
#

it might help power usage

flat vault
#

Or just usual marketing BS

#

true

manic parcel
#

and not touch performance

forest steeple
#

Thats just one source for what he test tho. I think hwu shows win10 has some issues in some apps

#

And why are you posting cinebench? It either uses one core or all the cores so whats the scheduler doing there?

flat vault
#

Which is why I said that others saw a difference but GN doesn't

#

HUB demonstrated a 5% loss in multicore

forest steeple
#

But you posted single thread cb

pseudo furnace
#

Win11 scheduler helps determine whether to use e or p cores

#

If a load is using 100% of all cores, I doubt it's going to show demonstrable differences

forest steeple
#

Thread director must be better than we thought

flat vault
#

That makes a lot of sense I guess

forest steeple
#

I think a while ago inread that thread director does prioritize the P cores, then ecores, then virtual cores

#

So to see the value you have to be doing something that uses more than 8 threads fully but not all threads
