When Intel launched the 12th generation desktop processor in the second half of last year, it first launched the K version of the unlocked processor to market its performance increase, and the performance was indeed quite amazing. In this morning's CES show, in addition to launching the notebook computer version of the 12th generation Core processor (see: [CES 2022 ] Intel launched the 12th generation notebook processor to provide more performance with heterogeneous cores Also for mainstream general/business users of desktop computers, a non-K version of the 12th-generation Core desktop processor series and matching H670/B660/H610 motherboard chipsets are launched.

Intel 12th Generation Core Desktop Non-K Revision Processor Family

This time Intel has launched a total of 22 12th-generation Core desktop non-K version processors, including general version, F version without display core, and low-voltage T version, using the basic 65W/35W power consumption configuration, BR66 maximum power The consumption is BR66 from 69W to 202W. Intel hopes to provide consumers/shippers with more different installation options by using different power consumption and internal display combinations under the same core/thread count configuration. The following are the 12th generation Core desktops launched by Intel this time. Upper type non-K version.

In the performance section, Intel said that the mainstream i5-12600 processor can be 8% to 30% higher than the rival Ryzen 7 5700G.

In the content creation application part of video and photo editing, the i5-12600 is also 17% to 31% more efficient than the Ryzen 7 5700G.

Compared with the previous generation i9-11900, the i9-12900 has a performance improvement ranging from 9% to 55%, especially in the video editing part, the improvement is quite large.

Intel said that even the non-K version of the processor has a very good performance in game performance. Compared with the previous generation i9-11900, there is a performance improvement ranging from 6% to 21% in various games.

As a non-K version of the processor, Intel also announced the H670/B660/H610 and other 600 series motherboard chipsets at this CES event, with PCIe Gen 4 channels (the H610 chipset does not), integrated WiFi 6E wireless network And with Intel VMD device management technology, etc., and the main differences between each chipset are in the overclocking performance of the processor, the number of memory channels, and the number of peripheral connections supported. The following is a comparison table of the 600 series chipsets in Intel's presentation.

In the face of fierce competitors, Intel also hid an Easter egg in the pre-CES presentation, that is, the i9-12900KS processor with 5.5 GHz overclocking performance. Before the CES show, Intel officially announced it through Twitter. It is revealed that in addition to a single-core clock (P-Core performance core) of up to 5.5 GHz, this processor can also achieve an overclocking setting of P-Core all-core 5.2 GHz, while the E-Core efficiency core is maintained. At the 4.0 GHz level, the KS version of the 12th Gen Core desktop processor is also expected to go on sale in the first quarter of 2022.
