The article has a lot of speculation about the upcoming release so I flagged it as rumor, but I wouldn't be surprised if most/all of speculated details are fairly accurate.
There's only so much room for Intel to improve the 14900k without updating the architecture. Rocket Lake is itself a glorified refresh of Alder Lake too.
It's going to be interesting to see what happens in the CPU space in the near future. Intel launching a refresh of a refresh and then AMD launches Zen 5 sometime in the year, then Zen 5 + 3D cache. Should be a rather favorable exchange for AMD. Will Arrow Lake be able to reclaim the crown for Intel the year after? We might see a bit of see-sawing of CPU dominance each year at this rate.
I'm glad I was already planning to skip this cpu gen.
