We're Not Supposed to Have This: Core i5-12400 ES Benchmarks & Preview (Engineering Sample)

We got an Intel Engineering Sample Core i5-12400 ahead of launch and discovered several issues with the ES QXDY model. These are abundant on eBay and AliExpress, but be cautious. This review of the Intel Core i5-12400 Engineering Sample (QXDY) looks at the performance versus the 12600K, AMD R5 5600X, AMD R5 3600, and more. Of course, the biggest thing we're doing is showing the (potential) severe limitations of some Engineering Sample models, and demonstrating why you should exercise caution when purchasing very early Engineering Sample revisions online. They often work just fine, but in this case, we discovered issues with the PCIe capabilities for the GPU, the frequency boosting, and more.

i dont see the point in anybody upgrading there intel chip if they bought one in the past half dozen generations. your not really gaining much. in some cases you may lose some latency performance with the X platforms. i am hearing gamers shutting off E cores. wow lol. why even buy the new generation for 200mhz more boost. the mother board prices are crazy and the ddr5 ram. maybe in another 2 generations intel.

If the 12400(f) launches for the alleged 180 price and beats the 5600x like the other leaks suggest, Zen 3 and AMD is in major trouble. Competition is clearly back with 12th gen and I cant believe Zen 4 is a whole year away still. Seems like 2022 will be Intels year.

What i'mn really hoping for is a sub 30w i3-12100, but instead of a cut down 8+8, it is basically just re-branded i7-ultramobile on an LGA 1700 where the top model has 2P core 8 E core and 96 EUs, but the same cut down IO as ultramobille to keep the price under 150

I run an old i7 Engineering Sample CPU in my laptop. I was super worried when I bought it on eBay it'd be fake or something (was very good deal). But it's done me well for many years. I do need a new laptop tho this thing is kinda slow now.

Should we expect something new from AMD in the low end on the AM4 platform. Or would it be wiser to wait for AM5/whatever intel has to offer and DDR5 to be affordable to build a budget gaming pc right now?

You also used to find unreleased SKUs like i7-999 and other just totally whakadoodle stuff that the engineers used to take home because Intel were never going to sell it.

Keep up the good work guys and lets hope the retail versions are alot better so it'll drive AMD to make a budget CPU again to keep the competition alive.

12900 non K?!? Y tho? Wouldn't a KF be much more reasonable? I mean sure, OC is dead but this seams a bit harsh to me to cut OC from the top tier product.

For a third of the price, I might be interested in one of these for a cheap livingroom pc, or a DIY NAS. As it stands though? As you said, not worth it!
