Intel has yet to officially announce its remaining 12th Gen Core desktop processors, but leakers have been ahead of the game. This time around, there are pictures of Intel's non-K SKUs, as well as more details on specifications.
DDAA1177, a user on Chinese site, Zhihu, appears to be in possession of an Intel Core i9-12900, a Core i5-12600, a Core i5-12500, and a Core i5-12400, posting pictures of each processor, as well as CPU-Z screenshots to give us a closer look at specifications. The only 12th Gen Core non-K processors missing from this leak are the Core i7-12700, i3-12300 and i3-12100, as well as their respective F variants.

Leaker @momomo_us was responsible for leaking the clock speeds and cache memory of the whole non-K line-up while also stating they would be out in mid-January. We assume that both standard and F processors share the same specifications, aside from the lack of iGPU on the F variants. You can take a look at the new details about the processors in the following table:
| Processor | Base Clock Speed | Boost Clock Speed | Core Configuration | L3 Cache |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Core i9-12900 | 2.4GHz | 5.1GHz | 8P+8E/24T | 30MB |
| Core i9-12900F | 2.4GHz | 5.1GHz | 8P+8E/24T | 30MB |
| Core i7-12700 | 2.1GHz | 4.9GHz | 8P+4E/20T | 25MB |
| Core i7-12700F | 2.1GHz | 4.9GHz | 8P+4E/20T | 25MB |
| Core i5-12600 | 3.3GHz | 4.8GHz | 6P+0E/12T | 18MB |
| Core i5-12600F | 3.3GHz | 4.8GHz | 6P+0E/12T | 18MB |
| Core i5-12500 | 3.0GHz | 4.6GHz | 6P+0E/12T | 18MB |
| Core i5-12500F | 3.0GHz | 4.6GHz | 6P+0E/12T | 18MB |
| Core i5-12400 | 2.5GHz | 4.4GHz | 6P+0E/12T | 18MB |
| Core i5-12400F | 2.5GHz | 4.4GHz | 6P+0E/12T | 18MB |
| Core i3-12300 | N/D | 4.4GHz | 4P+0E/8T (rumour) | N/D |
| Core i3-12300F | N/D | 4.4GHz | 4P+0E/8T (rumour) | N/D |
| Core i3-12100 | 3.3GHz | 4.3GHz | 4P+0E/8T (rumour) | 12MB |
| Core i3-12100F | 3.3GHz | 4.3GHz | 4P+0E/8T (rumour) | 12MB |
In addition to the newly unveiled details about 12th Gen Core desktop processors, @momomo_us also shared two listings of Bangladeshian store Nexus, showing the Core i7-12700 and the i5-12400 in stock for sale. This could be a mistake or proof that these processors are already being shipped to retailers.
KitGuru Says: The non-K and F SKUs should be cheaper than the current 12th Gen Core CPUs. Are you waiting for Intel to release non-K alternatives before upgrading?
