Snapdragon 845 SMARTPHONE CPU from OnePlus 6T, Xiaomi Poco F1 ANDROID PHONES running on native Windows 11... crazy!! People have gotten full-fledged native Windows 11 (for ARM) running on these things! Actual CPU performance is probably equivalent to an i7-4600u or something when it's running ARM code, but this website's benchmark is compiled for x86 CPUs so the 845 runs it through x86 emulation which significantly dampens performance, making it as fast as a Pentium D or Intel Atom when it comes to emulated x86 windows apps.... yikes. Still it is better than nothing, considering you are literally running REAL Windows 11 full-fledged with no compromises, and PC games and other amazing PC software on your freaking pocket-sized phone! Totally sick! [Mar '22Ravash7]
Intel’s latest 10-core i5-12600K Alder Lake desktop processor offers an impressive 50% 64-core performance improvement over it's predecessor. The 12600K combines six hyper-threaded Golden Cove P-cores with clock speeds up to 4.9 GHz and four energy efficient Gracemont E-cores for a total of 16 threads. Alder Lake CPUs have a new LGA 1700 socket which requires new cooler brackets and a new Z690 motherboard. Z690 brings several new features including PCIe 5.0 and DDR5 memory. Most Z690 boards will ship in both DDR4 and DDR5 variants. DDR4 is likely the better option, at least until DDR5 prices settle. With an MRSP of just $290 USD, the 12600K is both cheaper and faster than the competition in both single and, notably, multi-core performance. As a result, even AMD's prolific marketing infrastructure (youtube, reddit, forums etc.) will struggle to drive sales, at least until Zen 4 launches (est. late 2022). In the meantime, Intel's i5-12600K is the obvious choice for consumers that do not wish to pay over the odds for almost unparalleled performance in the majority of workloads including gaming. That said, gamers that already own a K series CPU from the 8th gen. or higher will see limited gains in the majority of titles when paired with a 3060 (or lower) tier GPU. In some cases (e.g. PUBG or Overwatch) gamers will see fewer frame drops by disabling the E-Cores all together. If recent history is a guide, stock levels at MSRP are likely to deplete rapidly.
