The price of the 11th generation of Intel Rocket Lake-S desktop processors has just been leaked thanks to a Dutch reseller. Overall Intel is reverting to a more modest core and thread count.

The next Most premium Core i9, i7 and i5 should adopt a maximum of 8 cores / 16 threads against up to 10 cores and 20 threads on the previous generation. Prices increased slightly across the entire range, but this increase remained contained below 3% (2.8%).

Intel Rocket Lake-S: prices drop a bit on the high end

In fact, Intel seems to have slightly increased the prices of its entry level, and more sharply the prices of the mid-range for lower prices on the most capable Core i9s. The most powerful Core i9-11900K is almost 9% cheaper than the previous generation – with as we told you, however, one core and two fewer threads.

Intel is reacting to a market that it is losing to its competitor AMD. In January 2021, AMD indeed passed Intel in market share in the desktop PC segment. Intel nevertheless retains the advantage over laptops with an 85% market share for the moment.
