Intel announces Core i9-12900KS with 5.5GHz clock speed at CES 2022
By MYBRANDBOOK
At the recently concluded CES 2022, Intel announced the Core i9-12900KS. The 12th Gen Intel Core ‘Alder Lake' CPU offers a 5.5GHz boost clock speed on a single core and is also capable of functioning at 5.2GHz on all cores while performing heavy multi-core tasks.
Specially binned for high performance, the company informed that this is the first Special Edition processor for desktops from Intel since the Core i9-9900KS that was launched at Computex 2019. The new processor is similar to the Core i9-12900K CPU and sports eight performance cores and eight efficiency cores. According to the company, the 12th Gen Alder Lake Intel Core i9-12900KS offers up to 40 percent higher performance generation-on-generation.
Intel also ran a live demo of the CPU running Hitman 3 during its launch, where the CPU was shown to maintain a clock speed of 5.2GHz on all eight performance cores.
Readers might recall that the 9th Gen Intel Core ‘Ice Lake' 10nm CPU offered users the ability to boost the CPU to 5.0GHz on all cores. Unlike its predecessor, the new Core i9-12900KS offers a 5.5GHz boost clock on a single core and the ability to sustain 5.2GHz on all cores, especially while gaming.
Intel is yet to reveal details of exactly how much power the new Intel Core i9-12900KS will draw, or how much the CPU will cost. But it has informed that the new Intel Core i9-12900KS will be available to manufacturers in Q1 2022.
Like the previous Intel Core i9-9900KS Special Edition CPU, customers should also be able to purchase the CPU at retail outlets. The Core i9-12900KS will compete with AMD's new Ryzen 7 5800X3D that was also unveiled at CES and was shown to surpass the Intel Core i9-12900K in some gaming benchmarks.
