Intel Core i5-11600K CPU Review

PCMark 10

PCMark 10 replicates many common tasks an office user might do such as manipulating photos, video conferencing, and spreadsheet editing and the 11600K outperforms every previous Intel chip.

Blender Benchmark 2.82 – BMW27

A new platform to collect and display the results of hardware and software performance tests. Aimed at an optimal comparison between system hardware and installations using open source software and testing content in the public domain.

Blender can take full advantage of multiple cores, so our breakdown here almost perfectly reflects core counts rather than raw speed. The 11600K is the fastest 6-core chip we’ve tested.

POV-Ray 3.7 Standard Benchmark – CPU

POV-Ray also scales linearly with core counts though we do find the 11600K shaving about 6 seconds off of the time achieved by the 10600K.

x265 HD Benchmark
A benchmark that measures how fast your computer can encode HD (1080p) video in the new H.265 / HEVC format.

Our 11600K fights its way into the score range previously only held by 8-core chips.

7-Zip

The benchmark shows a rating in MIPS (million instructions per second). The rating value is calculated from the measured speed, and it is normalized with the results of the Intel Core 2 CPU with a multi-threading option switched off. So if you have a modern CPU from Intel or AMD, rating values in single-thread mode must be close to real CPU frequency. There are two tests, compression with the LZMA method and decompression with the LZMA method. Once the total passes reach 50, the score is taken

In file compression activities, the 11600K pulls a solid lead over the older 10600K.

WebXPRT 2015

WebXPRT gives the 11600K a better score than every previous generation of Intel processors.
