(Our review of the Core i9-11900K has more detail on all that.)

.Intel Core i5 11400F processor review We again descend from eight towards six processor cores and twelve threads, this round with the Core i5 11400F, a processor that might be considered the most high-grade value for money in the Rocket L

Lastly, Intel has given the I/O capabilities of Rocket Lake a much-needed upgrade over the previous generation.

Even so, we think the 11600K is not the chip to go for because its performance-to-value play is not that strong.

It's a very few percentage points improvement. should you buy the new core I5 11600 K Honestly, I cannot think of a reason not to. If you're in the market for a six core processor for reasonable money and a motherboard to go with, I don't see any reason to not choose Intel plus a preferably budget motherboard, but 200 pounds or so, maybe less rather than the Ryzen 5 and B550 combo

So yeah, that's my recommendation for the 11 600k review. Still buy Intel, but just not this new one, rather the one they released this time last year.

The I5 is absolutely fantastic for gaming. you've got great airflow in this thing. It looks fantastic with all of those fans and it's really quiet as well

So for this one where the 11700k, like the 3800xt should be snapped out of existence, the 11600k actually comes out looking very competitive in gaming. Specifically factoring in the price, that's its major advantage now the same position that Amd was in approximately three to four years ago, so hopefully that roughly sums it up for you. The 11600k has places where we would definitely recommend it as a an option for a budget gaming build
