The sharp eyes at videocardz spotted or retrieved the specifications of the tweakable K-Model Rocket Lake processors that are due for release in March. That means all Frequency specs for the eleventh generation desktop processors: the Core i9-11900K, i7-11700K, and i5-11600K.

The Core i9 11900K and 11700K have 8 cores and 16 threads, 16MB of L3 cache. The i9-SKU is characterized by its higher boost clock of 5.3 GHz. The 11700K achieves a turbo boost of at most 5.0 GHz. The i5-11600K comes with 6 cores and 12 threads and has 12MB of L3 cache. The maximum boost clock speed of the hexacore is 4.9 GHz. All in line with leaks we've been seeing a few months ago. Rocket Lake-S chips make use of the new Intel 500 chipset, but they’ll be backward compatible with selected higher-end Intel 400 chipset based motherboards. A new motherboard is required if you want to take advantage of a PCIe x8 DMI and USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 (20G).

The boost clocks largely line up with Comet Lake, however, the base clock of each variant is 200 MHz lower than that of its respective predecessor. Likely Intel needs to keep the TDP in line. That TDP is listed at 125Watts, however, we know the hazy effect of PL2 states, they can run 250 Watts likely for a minute.

The screenshot that got leaked seems to be from MSI. Presumably, it is a presentation of the motherboards from the 500 series. Intel has not yet revealed final specifications, this information is subject to change at any time.
