The chipset features all of the additional I/O not incorporated into the processor die, including additional PCI Gen 4 lanes, USB, Thunderbolt 4, etc. Like the last few generations, the new Z690 chipset is essentially an I/O hub, because all of the traditional functionality previously found in legacy Northbridge chips has been integrated into the processor itself. Keep in mind though, that these are the default top memory specs and much higher memory frequencies will be possible when overclocking. Official DDR4 memory speeds top-out at 3,200MT/s, while the base DDR5 JEDEC spec is a much higher 4,800MT/s. Motherboards will feature either DDR4 or DDR5 memory slots though, not both (at least for the most part). When we say 12th Gen Core processors support DDR4 or DDR5, it just means the processors can work with both memory types. Note, however, that DDR5 memory slots are not compatible with DDR4.
Motherboards will also feature support for leading-edge DDR5 or DDR4 memory technologies.
When a 12th Gen Core processor is paired to a Z690-based motherboard, the platform will offer 16 lanes of PCIe Gen 5 connectivity, hanging right off of the CPU, which doubles the bandwidth of PCIe Gen 4 (per lane). the Intel 600 series, which is spearheaded by the flagship Z690.

With that new socket also comes a new series of chipsets, i.e. To accommodate all of the new plumbing necessary to implement the latest I/O and power gating tech in Alder Lake, Intel’s 12th Gen Core processors will use a brand new socket, LGA 1700, with many more pins that the previous-gen. Some of the processors will also feature integrated Intel Xe-based graphics engines, and 12th Gen Core processors have support for Deep Learning Boost, and Intel GNA 3.0 as well, to accelerate AI and machine learning workloads. In addition to the new hybrid core architecture, 12th Gen Core processors also feature support for the latest memory and IO technologies, including PCI Express Gen 5, DDR5 (though DDR4 is also supported), Thunderbolt 4, and Wi-Fi 6E. So, thankfully the days of Intel refining and pushing 14nm+++ to the ragged edge are over. The chips are built on Intel 7 process technology, formerly known as 10nm Enhanced SuperFIN. And we also have an interesting discussion for you, with Intel's GM of its Gaming Division, Client Computing Group that took place last night to share as well.ġ2th Gen Core processors incorporate two new CPU core designs, dubbed Efficiency (E-core) and Performance (P-core) cores. We will summarize things a bit here, however, if you’re not up for navigating a few browser tabs. If you want to understand all of the plumbing and what else Intel has baked into its 12th Gen Core platform, you’ll want to check out our Architecture Day 2021 coverage and last week’s news at the very least. Today’s embargo lift is all about benchmarks and performance. We’ve covered the Alder Lake architecture and the initial 12th Gen Core processor line-up in detail previously, so we won’t be going in-depth again here. Today we find out if the company actually pulled it off. After years of incremental updates, the launch of 12th Gen Core processors is meant to be a major leap forward for Intel. Alder Lake is based on a totally new hybrid architecture, which leverages “big” Performance cores paired to “little” Efficiency cores, and the supporting platform is rife with bleeding-edge I/O technologies. Needless to say, after years of aggressive competition from rival AMD, this particular platform launch has great significance for Intel. We’ve had the flagship 12th Gen Core i9-12900K and mainstream Core i5-12600K processors in hand for testing for a couple of weeks now, and have all of our findings laid-out for you on the pages ahead. The time for innuendo and speculation is over – for the most part. After many months of speculation, an early glimpse into the hybrid Alder Lake architecture in August, and an official line-up and feature reveal last week, Intel’s 12th Gen Core processors are finally ready for prime time.
