A few days ago, the GK5 database exposed the results of a Lenovo notebook equipped with the RTX 3080 Ti+i9-12900HX combination, which made people look forward to the performance of the 12th generation Alder Lake-HX high-end laptop processor. Recently, three more HX end processors have been exposed.

It is reported that The Alder Lake-HX is likely to be based on the desktop Version of the Alder Lake-S processor, which supports up to 8 P cores (performance cores) + 8 E cores (performance cores), 24 threads, as well as 30MB of L3 cache and 32EU units of Xe core display. The main specifications and benchmark results of the i9-12950HX, i7-12850HX and i5-12600HX mobile processors were recently exposed in the Geekbench benchmark database.
i9-12950HX
The basic specifications of the two HX-end mobile processors with the same 16 core/24 threads are different in the cache size - the i9-12950HX has 30MB L3, while the i7-12850HX is only 25MB L3, and the L2/L1 cache is also lower than the i9-12950HX, which is believed to be for partition positioning.
i7-12850HX
In terms of frequency, the Core i9-12950HX is also a bit higher – the base 2.5GHz/full core turbo up to 4.888GHz – while the i7-12850HX is only 2.4/4.688GHz.
i5-12600HX
The third SKU is the 12-core/16-thread i5-12600HX with a base frequency of 2.8GHz/full core Turbo up to 4.6GHz. For comparison, the previously listed i5-12600H has a maximum of only 4.588GHz, but both have 18MB L3 cache.
i9-12900HX
Finally, put this previously exposed i9-12900HX specifications: 16 cores and 24 threads, base frequency 2.49GHz, acceleration frequency 4.888GHz, 32KB x 12+48KB x 12 L1 cache, 1.25MB x 3 L2 cache and 30MB L3 cache. From the parameter point of view, it is not much different from the i9-12950HX.
As a mobile processor, the performance of the Core i9-12900HX series is very terrifying, single-core, multi-core in the same level of products have no competitors, and even can directly just the flagship model of the desktop platform, to know that the latter's TDP is above 100W or even 125W. It is foreseeable that this year's game market will be a great relief for many hardcore players and creators with continuous high load/high performance demand.
Not surprisingly, ADL-HX and related products will be released in Q2, while the price of the terminal products configured with the i9 is expected to exceed 20,000 yuan.
