Intel Official Data Shows That Rocket Lake's PCI-E 4.0 Storage Performance Is 11% Higher Than Its Opponents


Intel is preparing to launch the Rocket Lake-S processor next month, which is the 11th-generation Core desktop processor. In addition to upgrading the Skylake core that has been used for many years to Cypress Cove, the new generation of processors, according to official data, Rocket Lake’s IPC and Comet Lake has increased by 19%, and it is also Intel's first desktop processor to support PCI-E 4.0. As the release date gets closer and closer, various official test data are also beginning to flow out.

Twitter user @ryanshrout found a storage test comparison of Intel’s official Rocket Lake processor PCI-E 4.0 SSD, using Samsung 980 Pro 1TB SSD, running PCMark10 fast system disk with rival Ryzen 9 5950X processor The result of the test is 11% higher than the opponent. From the test platform table, Samsung 980 Pro 1TB is plugged in from the disk, there is nothing on it, and the system disk is Intel 760p 512GB, but they did not explain how the two SSDs are installed.

It is certain that if it is Intel's own platform, Samsung 980 Pro is installed on the M.2 interface directly connected to the CPU, because their next-generation motherboard PCH will still not provide PCI-E 4.0 support, so it is necessary to test PCI-E 4.0 The performance can only be directly connected to the CPU. The AMD platform uses the X570 motherboard, the CPU and South Bridge provide PCI-E 4.0, and the CPU and South Bridge also communicate with PCI-E 4.0, but even if the SSD is inserted on the South Bridge, performance will still be caused due to latency issues. Slight drop, there is no indication on the PPT and specification sheet where the SSD is inserted.
