Intel 11th-generation Rocket Lake-S gaming CPUs did not impress us

Rocket Lake-S doesn’t look like a very compelling gen-on-gen upgrade.

Today marks the start of retail availability for Intel's 2021 gaming CPU lineup, codenamed Rocket Lake-S. Rocket Lake-S is still stuck on Intel's venerable 14 nm process—we've long since lost count of how many pluses to tack onto the end—with features backported from newer 10 nm designs.

Our hands-on test results did not seem to match up with Intel's marketing claims of up to 19 percent gen-on-gen IPC (Instructions Per Clock cycle) improvement over its 10th-generation parts.
