Intel 11th-generation Core i5-11400 processor appears on Geekbench
Earlier, Intel announced at the CES 2021 exhibition that they are currently the most powerful civilian processor, the eleventh generation Core i9-11900K processor. This processor uses the Rocket Lake-S architecture and is still a 14nm process.
At the same time, Intel also mentioned the way that more 11th-generation Core desktop processors based on the Rocket Lake-S architecture will be available in the first quarter of this year, but did not disclose the exact date of listing.
However, as a high-profile processor head company, leaks before product launches are inevitable. Today, some netizens found the parameter information of the unlisted Intel 11th generation Core i5-11400 processor in the Geekbench database.
According to the data, the Core i5-11400 processor adopts a 6-core 12-thread design with a base frequency of 2.6GHz and a core frequency of 4.4GHz. It is based on the Rocket Lake-S architecture and adopts a Cypress Cove core design.
As we all know, all processors based on the Rocket Lake-S architecture will continue to use the 14nm process, the i5-11400 processor is no exception, the pin is also LGA 1200, but because the previous generation of H410 and B460 motherboard cores are used 22nm process, so if you want to be perfectly compatible with this processor, at least it must be a 400 series H470 motherboard and above, or directly a 500 series motherboard.
According to the data of Geekbench, the single-core performance of the i5-11400 processor is 11% faster than the previous generation processor (i5-10400), and the multi-core is 8% faster.
