While graphics cards have become nearly difficult to come by throughout the epidemic, Intel’s cutting-edge CPUs have remained plentiful. Whether it’s an Intel Core i9 11900K or an Intel Core i5 11400F, 11th generation Core processors are currently available for PC gamers to purchase as needed at retail pricing. That’s why recent rumors regarding Intel’s 12th generation Core CPUs and their rumored release date have PC gamers so excited.
The information comes from a range of MSI goods that were just introduced. Existing customers who want to upgrade to Intel’s new CPUs, which need compatibility with the LGA1700 socket, will be able to do so for free with the forthcoming CORELIQUID AIO Liquid Coolers series.
MSI also announced two dates in the process of verifying this. The first is the day on which pre-orders will be available, October 27, which is also the date of the Intel Innovation technical conference, which is when Intel is most likely to reveal its 12th generation CPUs.
The official start date of the promotion is November 4, according to MSI. In other words, it’ll be when MSI’s upgrade kits go on sale, which means Z690 motherboards with LGA1700 sockets and 12th-generation Intel CPUs will almost certainly be available as well. According to MSI’s timetable, Intel will announce its 12th generation CPUs on October 27, including the top-of-the-line Intel i9-12900K, and then launch the range on November 4.
Other media outlets have subsequently confirmed these dates, with VideoCardz claiming that various sources have confirmed that Intel’s Alder Lake-S CPUs would be available on November 4. This is also the day that Intel has scheduled for review embargoes, according to reports. Furthermore, according to Wccftech, pre-orders will begin on October 27.
For the time being, three separate CPU SKUs are reported to be part of Intel’s 12th generation CPUs, all of which are expected to be unveiled on October 27. The i9-12900K, i7-12700K, and i5-12600K, as well as their KF equivalents, are the three SKUs. The i9-12900K is said to have eight cores, 24 threads, and a 5.3GHz turbo clock.
Obviously, nothing is guaranteed until it is made public. Intel’s Intel Innovation event is still a month away, and even if the information thus far is correct, plans can always alter. Whatever the case may be, PC gamers are in for a treat. Intel’s 12th generation of CPUs will be announced on October 27 and released on November 4th.
