Official version of Intel's 11th-generation Core i5-11500 appeared: 6-core hard-gang Ryzen 5 5600X

With the release time approaching, the official version of the Intel Rocket Lake 11th generation Core also appeared in the benchmark software. After seeing the high-end i9-11900K and i7-11700K yesterday, I saw the mainstream i5-11500 in GeekBench 5 today.

As rumored, the specifications of i5-11500 are 6 cores and 12 threads, 3MB L2 cache, 12MB L3 cache, base frequency 2.7GHz, and maximum acceleration 4.6GHz.

Interestingly, the test motherboard is not a Z490 or Z590, but an Intel evaluation motherboard.

In terms of running points, the single-core performance of the i5-11500 is slightly higher than that of the i7-11700K (after all, the frequency is 200MHz higher), but because there are less 2 cores, the multi-core performance is nearly 19% lower.

Compared with the Ryzen 5 5600X with the same 6-core and Zen3 architecture, its single-core performance is infinitely close, while its multi-core performance is 11%.

The i5-11500(F) is one of the lowest-end models of the 11th-generation Core of the new architecture. There is only i5-11400(F) below, and the lower-end i3, Pentium, and Celeron have no new architectures, but 10 The booster version of Core Duo.
