Intel’s Rocket Lake and Comet Lake Refresh processors will only go on sale in March, but the Belgian retailer has already revealed the cost of 14 Rocket Lake and 5 Comet Lake Refresh models. Surprisingly, the top-end desktop Intel Core 11 was more affordable than the current flagship Intel Core 10.
For ease of comparison of prices and characteristics, we present two tables. In the first – Intel Rocket Lake:

And this is how the prices and characteristics of those very five Comet Lake Refresh processors look like:
| CPU | Marking | # Of cores / threads |
Base frequency, GHz |
Boost frequency, 1 core, GHz | Boost frequency, all cores, GHz | Cache memory, MB | GPU | TDP (PL1), W. | Price without VAT, euro |

The most interesting, of course, is the cost of the flagship Rocket Lake. It turns out that the Core i9-11900K in Europe is even cheaper than its predecessor – 500 euros against 550 euros. This can be explained by the smaller number of cores of the new product (but the performance is even higher). And Core i7-11700K, on the contrary, is more expensive than Core i7-10700K: 375 euros against 320. Core i5-11600K is also slightly more expensive than Core i5-10600K: 240 euros against 230. However, there is a lot of time before the release of these CPUs, so prices may change and, probably, downward.
