Comet Lake is not faster in most, if not all games than an 11900K with Adaptive Boost enabled. ABT was added post launch. Not to mention all the Skylake bugs that were finally fixed with Rocket Lake. It’s a much better CPU unless you’re coming from Reddit. Not to mention the platform finally got PCIE4 and TB4 among other overdue improvements.
- debug-desperado 4y agoWhen you add in the fact that it’s the only Intel desktop chip that supports AVX-512, Rocket Lake is pretty uniquely situated. The overclocking crowd may have turned up their nose (to be fair Comet Lake can have excellent memory latency and speed with some tweaking), but folks who like to tinker with software and not worry about which thread scheduler the OS is running are well served by Rocket Lake.
- BuckRogers 4y agoI agree on all counts. I’m not sure why people are disagreeing with me without presenting evidence though. I have both a 10900K and 11900K. The 11th gen has better minimum frame rates and does better in 4K. They’re both good enough at 1080P. It also beat out my 5950X in single core while not as far back in multi threading as you’d think. I’m skipping 13th gen because it appears it won’t have native Intel PCIE5 storage. But once they have that and add AVX512 back I’ll be upgrading one of these systems.
