[The Exiled]

Čovek je bil dosad za dosta toga u pravu, kad je Intel u pitanju, tak da ne bi bilo ništa čudno da i ovaj put zna više od ostalih.

There is one, and only one, benchmark that compares Alder Lake against AMD products, the rest only compare against 14nm Intel products be they Rocket/Ice cores or Sky Lake derivatives. The AMD chips were crippled due to the Windows 11 cache and core selection bugs but to be fair Intel acknowledged that up front. This is the long way of saying the AMD numbers should increase substantially when the patches, now out, are applied.

With the 12th Gen, Intel is changing the definition of "PL" power levels. PL1 is now an abstract concept, and no longer strictly matches with the TDP advertised for a particular SKU. All of the unlocked K/KF SKUs come with a "processor base power" rating of 125 W. The company will no longer use the term "TDP" in its documentation or marketing. The PL2 value as we knew it, will now be referred to as "maximum turbo power." For all SKUs being launched today, the default value for both these values is 241 W, so PL1=PL2=241 W. We're not exactly sure how this can work together with a "125 W" claim—we'll know more on September 4th when our reviews go live.
