Intel i7-11700K Memory Benchmarks: Gear 1 vs. Gear 2 on 3200MHz
7,730Intel's Core i7-11700K CPU has been in our hands for over a week now, but we focused our initial CPU benchmarks on Intel's new memory Gear 1 & Gear 2 modes.

Intel's Core i7-11700K CPU technically gets announced later today, but we bought one at retail with the help of Hardware31 (a case modder) to buy it. We're saving our 11700K review until we test the newest microcode, but for now, we'll benchmark the 11700K with memory Gear 1 & Gear 2 at 3200MHz to determine how much (or whether) it matters. This includes 10700K benchmarks on the charts, but the rest has been held for comparison until we publish our review. NOTE: WE HAVE CHANGED OUR CPU TESTING METHODOLOGY, SO RESULTS ARE NOT COMPARABLE TO OLD DATA.
Erratum: 5 minutes 29 seconds (can't type because it'll break timestamps) should say DDR4, not DDR3. Typo.
