An entry of Intel’s Alder Lake-S primarily based Core i7-12700K CPU has presumably been found throughout the SiSoftware Sandra database. The CPU noticed was working on a desktop platform & will likely be a part of the Alder Lake-S section which is headed for launch later this yr.
Intel Core i7-12700K Alder Lake-S Desktop CPU Noticed – 12 Cores, 20 Threads & 25 MB of L3 Cache
The CPU has no title however given its specs, we’re most undoubtedly taking a look at Intel’s Core i7-12700K (12700) SKU primarily based on older leaks. The pattern options 12 cores of which 8 are primarily based on the Golden Cove and 4 ought to be primarily based on the Goldmont structure. This could give us a complete of 24 threads (16 threads from efficiency cores and eight threads from effectivity cores). As for the clock speeds, since that is an engineering pattern, we’re taking a look at a 1.20 GHz base and three.40 GHz increase frequency however anticipate them to be a lot greater in retail and closing qualification variants.
Intel Alder Lake-S Core i7-12700K ES Desktop CPU Itemizing at SiSoftware (Picture Supply: Momomo):
As for the cache, nicely very first thing’s first, current software program suites aren’t absolutely up to date to acknowledge the Alder Lake-S hybrid CPUs absolutely, as such, the precise core and thread depend could also be inaccurate. That is the case right here because the chip is definitely recognized as a 12 core and 24 thread CPU whereas genuinely, it ought to be 12 core and 20 threads. The cache depend is appropriately displayed for 9 cores which signifies that the software program is studying the 8 efficiency cores appropriately however the effectivity core cluster that’s made up of 4 cores is being acknowledged as 1 entire core. Extra particulars on the cache configuration of Alder Lake-S CPUs may be discovered right here.
Most likely i7 12700K
– 12C 20T (misreported as 24T)
– 8*1.25MB + 4*384KB = 11.5MB L2
> L2 cache is reported as 9 core, I believe that’s proper resulting from 4 small core = 1 cluster. Benchmark might acknowledge cluster unit.
– 8*2.75MB(minimize from stuffed with 3MB) + 4*768KB = 25MB L3 https://t.co/fO84Bz2qM3— 포시포시 (@harukaze5719) August 9, 2023
The cache can also be being displayed for all 9 cores at 1.25 MB per core when this isn’t the case. The efficiency cores carry 1.25 MB cache & the effectivity cores would carry 2 MB cache per 4 core cluster. The L3 cache depend falls according to the earlier rumors which positioned the Core i7-12700K at 25 MB cache. It appears just like the cache will likely be minimize down on sure Alder Lake-S configurations with this chip particularly rocking 2.75 MB (3 MB full) L3 cache on efficiency and a 3 MB cache per effectivity core cluster.
Intel twelfth Gen Alder Lake Desktop CPU Specs “Rumored”

Following is what the core configuration of all Alder Lake CPUs is rumored to appear to be:
- Intel Core i9 Ok-Collection (8 Golden + 8 Grace) = 16 Cores / 24 Threads
- Intel Core i7 Ok-Collection (8 Golden + 4 Grace) = 12 Cores / 20 Threads
- Intel Core i5 Ok-Collection (6 Golden + 4 Grace) = 10 Cores / 16 Threads
- Intel Core i9 A-Collection (8 Golden + 8 Grace) = 16 Cores / 24 Threads
- Intel Core i7 A-Collection (8 Golden + 4 Grace) = 12 Cores / 20 Threads
- Intel Core i5 A-Collection (6 Golden + 0 Grace) = 6 Cores / 12 Threads
- Intel Core i3 A-Collection (4 Golden + 0 Grace) = 4 Cores / 8 Threads
The Alder Lake-S Core i7-12700K CPU was examined on a desktop platform comprising of 16 GB DDR5-4800 (PC76800) reminiscence. Judging by the take a look at setup, that is undoubtedly a preliminary take a look at board & not a correct Z690 motherboard which are anticipated to launch in This autumn 2023.
