Intel® Core™ i9-12900TE

The Intel Core i9-12900TE is a embedded processor with a hybrid 16-core layout (8 performance cores + 8 efficiency cores) and 24 threads, built on the Alder Lake architecture (Intel 7 process). It launched in Jan 2022. Clocks run from 1.1 GHz base to 4.8 GHz boost. A 30-MB L3 cache backs the cores (2.8 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 35 W. Notable platform capabilities: Deep Learning Boost, AVX-VNNI, Extended Page Tables (EPT), AES-NI.

The Intel Core i9-12900TE scores 3,058 in single-core performance and 20,543 in multi-core performance (PassMark CPU Mark ratings). From those two ratings Feex computes 7,926 for overall performance, 17,634 for productivity performance, 16,803 for creator performance, 23,624 for engineering performance and 14,310 for gaming performance. Its multi-core throughput works out to 1,284 per core, 856 per thread and 587 per watt. Its computed efficiency index is 1,340. Its performance index is 98, so its overall performance is 2% below 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 i9-12900TE scores 75,024 in integer math, 50,169 in floating-point math, 240,382 in compression, 14,133 in cryptography, 1,255 in physics simulation, 13,770 in vector SIMD, 84 in the prime sieve and 26,659 in sorting. Higher is better. Compared with the Intel Core i5-12400, it is 27% above in integer math, 9% above in floating-point math, 5% above in compression, 23% above in cryptography, 15% above in physics simulation, 11% below in vector SIMD, 25% above in the prime sieve and 18% 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.
