Engineered on the new Cypress Cove architecture, 11th Gen Intel
Core S-series desktop processors are designed to transform hardware
and software efficiency and increase raw gaming performance. The
new architecture brings up to 19% gen-over-gen instructions per
cycle (IPC) improvement2 for the highest frequency cores and adds
Intel® UHD graphics featuring the Intel® Xe graphics architecture
for rich media and intelligent graphics capabilities. That matters
because games and most applications continue to depend on
high-frequency cores to drive high frame rates and low latency.
Designed to Game: With its new 11th Gen desktop
processors, Intel continues to push desktop gaming performance to
the limits and deliver the most amazing immersive experiences for
players everywhere.
At the top of the stack is the 11th Gen Intel Core i9-11900K,
featuring unmatched performance with up to 5.3 gigahertz, eight
cores, 16 threads and 16 megabytes of Intel® Smart Cache. The
unlocked 11th Gen Intel Core desktop processor supports fast memory
speeds with DDR4-3200 to help enable smooth gameplay and seamless
multitasking on this platform.
Improvements in this generation include:
- Up to 19% gen-over-gen IPC performance improvement.
- Up to 50% better integrated graphics performance with Intel UHD
graphics featuring Intel Xe graphics architecture.3
- Intel® Deep Learning Boost and Vector Neural Network
Instructions support to accelerate artificial intelligence (AI)
inference — vastly improving performance for deep learning
workloads.
- Enhanced overclocking tools and features for flexible
overclocking and tuning performance and experience.
Through close collaboration with more than 200 of the top game
developers, Intel brings a host of game, engine, middleware and
rendering optimizations to applications so they can take advantage
of 11th Gen Intel® Core™ S-series processors to deliver exciting
gaming experiences.
Superior Tuning and Stability: 11th Gen Intel Core
desktop processors introduce new overclocking tools and features
for more flexible tuning to achieve unmatched speeds and superior
game performance. This generation includes real-time memory
overclocking which enables changes to DDR4 frequency in real time,
extending memory overclocking support for H570 and B560 chipsets
allowing users to experience overclocking, Advanced Vector
Extensions (AVX) 2 and AVX-512 voltage guard band override, and an
all new integrated memory controller with wider timings and Gear 2
support (in addition to Gear 1 support).
Media and Streaming Features for Days: The new 11th Gen
Intel Core S-series delivers rich media experiences, from AAA
gaming to high-definition streaming with additional features
including DDR4-3200 MHz support, 20 PCIe 4.0 lanes, Intel Quick
Sync Video, enhanced media (10bit AV1/12bit high-efficiency video
coding decode and end-to-end compression), enhanced display
(Integrated HDMI 2.0, HBR3), and discrete Thunderbolt™ 4 and Intel
Wi-Fi 6E support.

1Intel® Thermal Velocity Boost (Intel® TVB) is a feature that
opportunistically and automatically increases clock frequency above
single-core and multi-core Intel® Turbo Boost Technology
frequencies based on how much the processor is operating below its
maximum temperature and whether turbo power budget is available.
The frequency gain and duration is dependent on the workload,
capabilities of the processor and the processor cooling
solution.
