Most Rocket Lake-S leaks covered the 8-core Core i7/i9 series, leaving the Core i5 series a bit of a mystery. Today the first result of the i5-11600K CPU on Geekbench has been discovered, but it does paint a clear picture yet.
The i5-11600K is a 6-core and 12-thread Rocket Lake-S CPU with a base clock of 3.9 GHz and a boost clock of 4.9 GHz. The sample was tested on a Gigabyte Z490M motherboard and (unfortunately) with 2133 MHz DDR4 memory. This means that the score is definitely affected by relatively slow memory configuration.

With a single-core score of 1565 points, the CPU is slower than 6-core AMD Ryzen 5 5600X. The same applies to multi-threaded performance. However, in comparison to Comet Lake-S CPU, we are looking at a 19% increase in single-core performance. There appears to be an issue with multi-core performance, as right now it appears that the current-gen CPU (10600K) is 13% faster than its successor.
The chart below represents average scores, either from the official Geekbench V5 CPU ranking or manually calculated from available scores.
