Intel Core i7 9700K processor review 4

Posted by: Hilbert Hagedoorn on: 10/19/2018 02:00 PM [ 314 comment(s) ]

It is time to review that secondary Coffee Lake-S refresh release. In this review we put some blisters on the Core i7 9700K. This is the higher end mainstream processor. With eight cores it is aimed at the Z390 chipset based platform. But is it an interesting enough proc with just 8 threads, as this dawg does have hyper-threading?

excellent review....

I really like your final words ...>"I am liking that Core i5 9600K just for what you can achieve with it (gaming wise)"

Grrrrrrr......you just give me a big upgrade itch that I can't scratch off!...:p

Well, 9900k is a weird CPU as far as I can tell.

Even in 720p benchmarks doesn't make it shine (pure CPU cap).
However Intel finally created a consumer CPU that doesn't lose to Ryzen in raw power. And overclock make the gap further.
So it could a good CPU for 144fps+ gaming AND content producing. We'll see how it gonna age.

9900k looks ok, but pricing.. oh well.. geizhaltz has them listed from 600€+, avg more around 700-750€.. lol good luck with that.


Like I said few times, Icelake or ryzen 2 for me. Maybe I'm leaning towards Icelake more because of ddr5, I know ryzen2 will still be ddr4.
