Nice! Shame that that Intel Rocket Lake-S Core i9-11900K only features 8 cores … I was expecting at least 12 cores. Still, a 5.3 GHz boost on all 8 cores is pretty decent.
Taken from Videocardz … The flagship Rocket Lake-S CPU has already leaked earlier this month through Ashes of the Singularity benchmark website. It was revealed back then that the CPU carries a base clock of 3.5 GHz. Unfortunately, the software does not report on maximum turbo frequency, so that remained a secret until now.
According to Twitter user davidbepo, the flagship Rocket Lake-S CPU has a single-core Thermal Velocity Boost frequency of 5.3 GHz. The leaker also reveals the CPU has an all-core TVB frequency of 4.8 GHz. While the single-core frequency is identical to the 10th Gen Core flagship Core i9-10900K, the all-core speed is actually lower by 100 MHz.

The CPU allegedly has a maximum PL1 (power level 1) of 125W and PL2 of 250W. Those as well appear to be identical to the 10-core Comet Lake-S flagship. The PL1/PL2 data for the rest of the Rocket Lake-S lineup remains unknown.
