The Intel Core i9-11900K beats the Ryzen 9 5950X in new Ashes of the Singularity benchmarks

[Redaktion]

Intel's next flagship desktop processor, the Core i9-11900K, may only have eight cores, but it is already comparing well against the AMD Ryzen 9 5950X in gaming benchmarks. The Core i9-11900K holds upwards of an 8% advantage over AMD's 16-core Vermeer chip, even with essentially the same boost clock as its Comet Lake-S predecessor.

Intel has bigger silicon size, so let's stop the BS.

But doesn't TSMC have higher density?

The only problem is that 5950x is a 2020 processor available now, while 11900k... when it's gonna be released btw?  Maybe it'll have to compete with 6950x :) while still being inferior to 5950x in all tests except one. So now Intel has to catch up, or will loose significant part of the cpu market.

DOA processor generation for sure

Look, it's faster!*

*when we tested against the competition with half the RAM

They had the 32 GB sticks, couldn't pop them into an AMD rig? I wonder why they didn't...

[Kevin Wallace Hake]

Oh ha, these are just individual benchmarks, not a lab test :-[

[Mediacenterkodi84]

Who cares. Intel rapes their customers with prices. AMD is still the superior manufacturer in my mind. Hey drop hundred/hundreds more for single digit performance gain. Dumb, very dumb. AMD will take that from them in the coming years as well.

I don't see any  Intel 14nm CPUs on the roadmap after Rocket Lake.  Perhaps gamers will  fondly reminisce about these as the last of the great overclockers, as hot-rodders dream of the old gas-guzzling muscle cars.

[Gigaplex]

If this new chip beats the 5950X by around 500 points but only beats the 10900K by around 300 points, then this is already a rare title that favours Intel. Did we really expect the new chip to not beat the 5950X in this title?

[Jediwombat]

This is very misleading. The as-yet-unreleased Intel chip beats the current-gen AMD, on a single benchmark, if we give it double the RAM. It will also cost probably at least 30% more than the 5950X.

Is this site sponsored by Intel, or something? This is blatant cherry-picking.

[Your code is trash]

Click bait article you should be ashamed

[Sjoerd]

How convenient... Bottlenecking an AMD with 16gb RAM... When you know that AMD runs significantly faster with enough and fast memory! With a processor that will most likely cost double as much and isn't released yet... In only one benchmark...

Of course, they say the AMD is last gen tech, but, it's also practically unavailable.! 🤣

[Thedrakenangel]

 :( you cannot even compare these... They are not competing on even ground. Any system with more ram will be more responsive up to a point. And the 32 gig seems to be the point of diminishing returns. But, from 16 to 32 there are gains to be had... This is all click bait.

It's not available .. anywhere.  LIAR
