Intel Core i9-11900K, i7-11700K and i5-11600K Rocket Lake-S specifications confirmed by MSI

Intel Core i9-11900K Rocket Lake-S up to 5.3 GHz

We received an anonymous tip with Rocket Lake-S CPU series specifications. 

It appears that the chart originated at MSI, likely to be part of the recently 500-series motherboards presentations. The specifications of the 11th GeN core series are certainly still under NDA though.

According to the chart, Intel 11th Gen Core-K series will feature Core i9-11900K, Core i7-11700K, and Core i5-11600K. Only the latter is a 6-core CPU, while both Core i7 and Core i9 will debut with 8-cores.

The K-series are feature 125W TDP and DDR4-3200 memory support. While there is no change in TDP compared to the Comet Lake-S series, the memory support has improved. MSI slide confirms that the Core i9-11900K will boost up to 5.3 GHz in Thermal Velocity Boost mode with all cores reaching up to 4.8 GHz. The base clock is as rumored before, 3.5 GHz.

The 11700K will be 300 MHz slower, as it does not support Thermal Velocity Boost.  This SKU will have a 3.6 GHz base clock, which is 100 MHz higher than i9. The list ends at Core i5-11600K which is a 6-core and 12-thread CPU with a base clock of 3.9 GHz and turbo reaching 4.9 GHz.
