What are the integrated GPU EU counts for these SKUs?

You can bet it's the small, 32 unit version (G1/ UHD, whatever you want to call it).

So basically, Intel's rocket lake i9-11900 is an i7-11700 with a higher clockspeed. Gee I wonder how much Intel's gonna mark up the price because of the Core i9 name.

It was like that with 9700, 9700K, 9900 and 9900K, wasn't it? Plus the HT was disabled, to differentiate the product more. The 900 was higher bin than 700 (more efficient, able to stay stable at higher frequencies). The K versions have higher power limits (allowing higher frequencies) and might be higher bins than respective non-K as well.

L3 cache is smaller because there are fewer cores. It still works out to 2 MiB per core (while it's shared, the total size depends on core count; as evidenced by the models with fewer cores).

All intel has to do is price them lower than their direct AMD counterparts... please don't mess this up Intel

This really is the key. Performance should be competitive with AMD's equivalent core count parts, albeit with dramatically worse power characteristics, so they really need to account for that (significant) deficit by dropping prices significantly.

This is Intel, though, so I expect we'll see them price them equivalently (at retail) and brute-force the OEM market as per usual. AMD simply can't supply enough products to actually lock Intel out of the market, so they'll more than likely get away with it, too.

Just call it Coreium already. Named after the nuclear reactor meltdown product corium. Crawled out of Chernobyl.

There are recent SSDs and GPU cards tht can benefit from the higher bandwidth enabled by the 20 PCIE4 lanes.

Confirmed... this will be flop lake.

Sorry for the double post.  To clarify, that only applies to gaming.  Productivity, AMD spanks Intel.  Badly.

If this holds up, it sounds like Intel may be able to match AMDs performance at a cheaper price point.  Assuming they're the same price as comet lake.  Problem will be efficiency, keeping it cool.

Lava Lake.

Stove lake

Meh.

It sounds like AMD will still be kicking intel's butt.

Waiting for my furnace lake someday
