Intel's new Rocket Lake supposedly edges out Ryzen on single core performance (but only on a single core test and only on Intel's favorite test of the moment (a special "single core best of the lot" test that is heavily tweeked for AI usage) and only for a short thermal duration and
only on two very specific Intel sku units that were cherry picked for this very purpose).
New Intel BS trickery is suspected (see follow on posts for analysis).What is this data good for? Well, it challenges AMD to go beat it, and
you know they will, plus an extra 10-15% for good measure.
As will Apple's M-2 chipsets coming out later this quarter .......
But, by then Intel will have printed these "new results" on 10's of thousands of product boxes so Joe and Rita Sixpack can continue to read that Intel is still in the lead, still, whenever they go computer shopping.
So Intel's whopper marketing lies actually helps motivate AMD and Apple to build "the processor staircase to Heaven" one step height at a time.
Also, Intel likes to push out yak yak that they plan to do this and plan to do that, but the generations of stuff Intel promises never gets built as it was never real in the first place.
Meanwhile, Joe and Rita never see this stuff ........

insists that all published testing is done using the stock cooler. AMD only claims what a stock AMD rig can do ...... unlike Intel which lies out their ass all the time using a variety of tricks which include non-standard settings and custom cooling.
Lilbits: Intel’s Adaptive Boost for Rocket Lake chips
This week Intel introduced its new 11th-gen 14nm desktop processors, code-named Rocket Lake-S. Set to hit the streets at the end of the month, the new processors are manufactured using a 14nm process rather than the 10nm process the company uses for most of its recent laptop chips. But Intel is still promising a modest boost in CPU performance and bigger boosts in integrated graphics.
Intel is also promising even better performance for its most powerful Rocket Lake-S chips. The upcoming Intel Core i9-11900K and Intel Core i9-11900KF will support a new feature called Adaptive Turbo Boost, which allows some of the eight CPU cores to run at up to 5.1 GHz simultaneously, assuming they processor is running cool enough to support the feature.
AnandTech has a more detailed explanation, including some useful graphics that show how Adaptive Turbo Boost differs from regular Turbo Boost and Thermal Velocity Boost. The tech news and analysis site also already has a review of one of Intel’s less powerful Rocket Lake-S chips, the Core i7-11700K, and it seems like the processor only kind of delivers on Intel’s promises of performance improvements. It all depends on what you ask the chip to do.
Intel’s New Adaptive Boost Technology: Floating Turbo Comes to Rocket Lake [AnandTech]
Intel’s new Adaptive Boost technology will bring better multi-core performance to the highest-performance Rocket Lake-S desktop processors by enabling selected CPU cores to hit speeds as high as 5.1 GHz simultaneously under the right conditions.Question: how many seconds of this action before the BIOS thermal sensor built into the chipset itself shuts it down for thermal throttling (self preservation) ????
So, it is a another hyperclocking gimmick that only operates in certain circumstances (such as a carefully set up CPU benchmark test) to give out a false impression of real processor performance under those certain specific circumstances.
An Intel PC equipped with chilled water or freon cooling
might be able to get all 8 cores actually up and running on this trick (aside from the fact that Intel rates the processor off the single one best performing core and the rest are always catch as catch can as far as real performance goes.
Using them Intel "Magic Minute" tricks again I see ........ however this time they are only a few magic seconds in duration.USING FAN AND FIN COOLING, THERE ARE CURRENTLY NO REAL WORLD TASKS THAT CAN ACTUALLY USE INTEL'S ADAPTIVE BOOST TECHNIQUES INSIDE THE
VERY FEW SECONDS THAT BIOS CONTROLLED THERMAL THROTTLING WOULD PERMIT FOR THEM TO BE EFFECTIVE.
Intel Marketing BS, smoke and mirrors, lies you pick the term you would prefer to use.
