Intel has announced two new desktop CPUs. Do not buy them.

The first is the i5 120, a six core part that has the exact same specs as the Core i5 12400 from 2022, mostly because that's what it is. Admittedly not an awful part, particularly if you didn't run a workload that would make good use of the "efficiency" cores, because it didn't have any of those.

The second is the i5 110, a six core part that has the exact same specs as the Core i5 10400 from 2020, mostly because... Yeah. The 10th generation chips didn't even have "efficiency" cores yet, so you're safe there. But you will need to find a five year old motherboard and DDR4 RAM for it, because none of this modern stuff will work.

Oh, and it's 14nm.
