Intel Core i9-12900K allegedly scores 30K points in Cinebench R23

Insane numbers if true! Personally as an owner of a 5950x, I do hope that Intel comes back mainly because we saw what happens when there's no competition. When Intel had no competition, endless quad cores. When AMD had no competition, screw the budget segment. We need companies to continue to trade blows. Hopefully Zen 3 Vcache will be competitive.
Microsoft’s SQ3 Chip Based on Snapdragon 8cx Gen 3 Said to Deliver 60% Performance Improvement Against SQ2; Equal to an 8-Thread i7-1160G7

If true, the CPU Arms race will get more competition as well. Plus Windows PCs could have an alternative to Apple's M1 even if it ends up being slower but giving you a significantly larger apps support.
Can the Slowest PS5 SSD Upgrade Run Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart?
Overall it makes sense why such a "slow" (by 2021 standards) SSD is able to keep up. Read speeds are generally not the main issue with budget SSDs. Endurance and write speeds are. Hence why the write speeds are crazy long. Still while it works just fine with Ratchet and Clank, as per video, it's best to get an SSD that's above spec rather than below spec.
