It enables an environment where applications can run within their own space protected from all other software on the system. Intel Virtualization Technology for Directed I/O (VT-d) Intel Virtualization Technology for Directed I/O (VT-d) continues from the existing support for IA-32 (VT-x) and Itanium processor (VT-i) virtualization adding new support for I/O-device virtualization. Intel VT-d can help end users improve security and reliability of the systems and also improve performance of I/O devices in virtualized environments. Intel Virtualization Technology (VT-x) Intel Virtualization Technology (VT-x) allows one hardware platform to function as multiple virtual platforms. It offers improved manageability by limiting downtime and maintaining productivity by isolating computing activities into separate partitions. Intel 64 Intel 64 architecture delivers 64-bit computing on server workstation desktop and mobile platforms when combined with supporting software. Intel 64 architecture improves performance by allowing systems to address more than 4 GB of both virtual and physical memory. Intel Clear Video HD Technology Intel Clear Video HD Technology like its predecessor Intel Clear Video Technology is a suite of image decode and processing technologies built into the integrated processor graphics that improve video playback delivering cleaner sharper images more natural accurate and vivid colors and a clear and stable video picture. Intel Clear Video HD Technology adds video quality enhancements for richer color and more realistic skin tones. Cache CPU Cache is an area of fast memory located on the processor. Intel Smart Cache refers to the architecture that allows all cores to dynamically share access to the last level cache. Intel AES New Instructions Intel AES New Instructions (Intel AES-NI) are a set of instructions that enable fast and secure data encryption and decryption. AES-NI are valuable for a wide range of cryptographic applications for example: applications that perform bulk encryption/decryption authentication random number generation and authenticated encryption. Idle States Idle States (C-states) are used to save power when the processor is idle. C0 is the operational state meaning that the CPU is doing useful work. C1 is the first idle state C2 the second and so on where more power saving actions are taken for numerically higher C-states. Intel Turbo Boost Technology Intel Turbo Boost Technology dynamically increases the processor's frequency as needed by taking advantage of thermal and power headroom to give you a burst of speed when you need it and increased energy efficiency when you dont.

Simplified Alder Lake die processor

Unlike the new Core i7 and Core i9 chips, the Core i5 processors are based on a smaller, simplified Alder Lake die. Because of this, our test Core i5-12600K only has 6 high-performance cores on board, supporting 12 logical threads and 4 additional power-efficient cores. The former can be accelerated to a frequency of 4.9 GHz, the ceiling of the latter is 3.6 GHz. The main rival of the novelty from the AMD camp is the 12-thread Ryzen 5 5600X processor based on the Zen 3 architecture.

Slightly faster Ryzen 5 5600X

In the synthetic CPU-Z and Cinebench tests, the new product from Intel is literally half a body away from the Ryzen 5 5600X - in most measurements, the advantage is 2-3%. In games, the Core i5-12600K and Ryzen 5 5600X show almost the same performance. The level of energy consumption also differs little. And it's great, because the older Core i9 from the Alder Lake family turned out to be seriously voracious. All things considered, the new Intel chip could cause a lot of excitement among gamers and people who need a fairly powerful and modern PC for work.

New processor - new motherboard

Prices will play a key role in this confrontation between Ryzen 5 and Core i5. Now in east european retail for both processors they ask plus or minus the same $400. In favor of Ryzen is the fact that this processor can be used with motherboards on the good old socket AM4. To work with the Core i5-12600K, you will need a new motherboard on the LGA1700 socket. And they are expensive. As for the use of DDR5 memory, so far there is no particular use from it - most synthetic tests in comparison with DDR4 received an increase in performance by literally 2 – 3%. For a Core i5-level processor, this is now superfluous.
