Intel® Core™ i7-12700E

The Intel Core i7-12700E is a embedded processor with a hybrid 12-core layout (8 performance cores + 4 efficiency cores) and 20 threads, built on the Alder Lake architecture (Intel 7 process). It launched in Jan 2022. Clocks run from 2.1 GHz base to 4.8 GHz boost. A 25-MB L3 cache backs the cores (3.2 MB per core). It addresses DDR5, DDR4 memory up to 128 GB across 2 channels. The chip drops into the FCLGA1700 socket and exposes PCIe 5.0 (20 lanes). Rated TDP is 65 W. Notable platform capabilities: Deep Learning Boost, AVX-VNNI, Extended Page Tables (EPT), AES-NI.

The Intel Core i7-12700E scores 3,611 in single-core performance and 27,844 in multi-core performance (PassMark CPU Mark ratings). From those two ratings Feex computes 10,027 for overall performance, 23,154 for productivity performance, 21,814 for creator performance, 30,280 for engineering performance and 17,794 for gaming performance. Its multi-core throughput works out to 2,320 per core, 1,392 per thread and 428 per watt. Its computed efficiency index is 1,244. Its performance index is 124, so its overall performance is 24% above the Intel Core i5-12400 (index 100). Each bar shows the score as a share of a reference ceiling, which is the larger of the 99th-percentile score across the Feex CPU database and a fixed baseline.

Scores for individual PassMark CPU Mark test categories. Higher is better. These are measured test scores, not computed from the single-core and multi-core ratings.

In the individual workload tests the Intel Core i7-12700E scores 103,077 in integer math, 75,741 in floating-point math, 325,471 in compression, 18,027 in cryptography, 1,580 in physics simulation, 20,618 in vector SIMD, 100 in the prime sieve and 35,814 in sorting. Higher is better. Compared with the Intel Core i5-12400, it is 75% above in integer math, 65% above in floating-point math, 43% above in compression, 57% above in cryptography, 45% above in physics simulation, 33% above in vector SIMD, 49% above in the prime sieve and 58% above in sorting. Each bar shows the score as a share of that workload's reference ceiling, the larger of the 99th-percentile score across CPUs with a recorded value and a fixed baseline.

The Intel Core i7-12700E has 12 physical cores and runs 20 logical threads. It uses a hybrid layout of 8 performance cores and 4 efficiency cores. It runs at a base clock of 2.10 GHz and boosts up to 4.80 GHz.
