It's a single core on a better binned cpu, temp and power will be mostly the same.
Also not a single person that cares about high clocks cares about temps and power, just like not a single person that cares about temps and power cares about low clocks.

Probably because it's irrelevant for this CPU, as it's the best binned 12900 series SKU. People getting this is probably going to look for records and such. I doubt many people, unless hardcore Intel die-hards, will get it at the premium Intel will be asking. Which I'm wondering how much it'll be. Then again, Microcenter will have it with a good discount soon after launch, I'm sure, lel.

Regards.

The 1.381 Core VID that is shown in the screen capture is not comforting.

The Core i9-12900K may debut in the first quarter of this year; however, the exact date and pricing remain a mystery.

It's not going to debut in the first quarter this year. I'm going to predict November 4th, 2021 for $589.

Perhaps I'm just too cynical these days but in my mind, for the term 'blow it out of the water' to apply to CPU performance, something more like a minimum 10% increase in clock speeds is required.

It's a little disappointing that Intel still feels the need to lean so heavily on these sorts of meaningless, willy-waving antics.
