Core i9-12900HK: Faster than Apple’s M1 Max


The Intel Core i9-12900HK mobile processor can outperform AMD’s Ryzen 9 5980HX and Apple’s M1 Max.

Intel is also planning a number of new processors based on the Alder Lake series for mobile devices. Are now

First major results for the Intel Core i9-12900HK
Gives better values ​​for CPU. The CPU with 14 cores and 20 threads does not yet have exact clock ratios. A base clock of 2.9 GHz can be obtained from the definitions. However, it is not clear whether this only applies to fast core or slow game cores. Intel uses six high-performance cores with hyper-threading and eight energy-saving cores without hyper-threading. Intel is trying this concept of different cores for the first time.

Excellent geekbench results

The Core i9-12900HK scored 1,851 points in a single core test on Geekbench. The CPU can score 13,256 points in a multi-core test. The processor crashes the previous high score on the Geekbench database of mobile CPUs. Accordingly, the new Intel mobile chip, based on the Zen 3 (Raison 5980 HX: 1,506 points) or Apple’s M1 Max (1,785 points), is pushing even earlier pioneers from AMD to the bottom. This also applies to the multicore test, which is significantly better with 13,256 points than the previous generation Core i9-11980HK with 9,149 points.
