Evidence of Intel’s 12th Gen “Alder Lake-S” flagship processor being able to best AMD’s Ryzen 9 5950X continues to mount. The latest stems from a user on China’s Bilibili forums, who shared a CPU-Z benchmark teasing the alleged single-core performance of a Core i9-12900K.
According to the test, Intel’s upcoming flagship is capable of reaching a score of 825 on CPU-Z’s single-core benchmark. This is 143 points greater than its predecessor, the Core i9-11900K, and 178 points greater than AMD’s Ryzen 9 5950X.
The implication is that Intel’s 12th Gen “Alder Lake-S” flagship could be up to 27 percent faster than the current competition. Here’s CPU-Z’s rankings for comparison.
