Core i7 9700K Results Spotted in Geekbench Database
Little is left to explain as to what the new Core i9-9900K and i7-9700K series processors will be and bring. Over the weekend i7-9700K results have been spotted at Geekbench.
Geekbench, the i7-9700K results have now been published, the cpu shows a single-core score of 6,297 and a multi-core score of 30,152. To compare a bit, the i7-8700K has a single and multi-core score of ~5,830 and ~24,450 points respectively. The Core i5-9600K, i7-9700K, and i9-9900K will likely officially launch in October.
It is expected that three new Intel processors in the 9000 series launch October 1st, the Core i9 9900K and i7 9700K. Intel's soon the be most high-end desktop processor the Core i9-9900K is the same 8-core part, yet now with HyperThreading enabled (16-threads). This processor has some interesting stuff, it can do 5.0 GHz on a single and dual-core turbo frequency. Also really interesting, it'll do a boost up to 4.7 GHz on all cores.
The Core i7 9700K is an eight-core and eight-thread processor (that's right no Hyperthreading) with a boost up to 4.9 GHz on one single-core. However, it can turbo at 4.6 GHz maximum on all cores. The Core i5 9600K is the 6 core 6 threaded part (no Hyper threading either) running 3.7 and 4.6 base /turbo frequencies.

Nope, 9700K is just much more efficient. Gaming wise it seems it will be also a superior choice. Less and more powerful threads. That is what we really want. After single threaded performance the most important factor is the distributed power between cores/threads.
I'm quite surprised to see such a clear win for the 9700K over the 8700K in this benchmark for the multi-threaded portion, because the 8700K has 12 threads vs only 8 for the 9700K, I thought that in multicore tests they would be closer to each other with maybe a very slight win for the 8700K. Maybe Geekbench doesn't use 12 threads effectively, like maybe there's a ceiling for the number of threads it can use, don't know?

All these years Intel saying paste is fine we dont need solder.
Lets see if they apologise and admit they were mistaken and man up.
Lets see if they deserve any respect and admit when they are wrong.
Lets just see.

i7 8700k is what... 4.2 or 4.3 GHz on all cores
i7 9700k is 4.6 GHz @8-cores

9600K seems pointless compared to the other two. But I guess they need it for the full lineup.

Geekbench3 did not support SMT. Likely nothing changed with Geekbench4.

I think you missed the point in toothpaste. They made it with Ivy. Compare its thermals with Sandy...
Sandy @4,5GHz ~60-62°C under full load and all cores (with good air cooling). Maximum OC around 4,8-5,0GHz before thermals/power consumption was an issue.
That's for chips sold as 3,3~3,4GHz guaranteed once all cores are under load.
Ivy changed that. Not so easy, not so cool. Intel dropped toothpaste and went metal solder at time when toothpaste had too little thermal headroom. They would have trouble delivering those stock clocks with toothpaste.
And in this situation, they are risk-free from repeating another Sandy which lasted 5 years before stock CPUs started to outperform them.
Now you have chip with little OC headroom. And next chip can keep same clock, just improve IPC by 5% and it wins by that margin. Or they bump clock by 5%.

3.5v on core? your heatspreader most be like a car on size jaja ( i suppose it is 1.5v)

probably 1.35v
my sons 8700k runs 4.7Ghz 1.255v all day long so it is probably that.

Those single core scores are making me jealous.
My 7820X @ 4.7Ghz only gets 5786/32375

Yes this is indeed a nice single score, but not that great in Multicore. But I really do not like GeekBench, especially when you see some scores from mobile phones that can be as good as an i7 8xxx. I don't really rely on this Benchmark test, I prefer to see real benchmark like Cinebench, Blender, X264, X265, After Effects... they are more real life usage.
My best scores on GeekBench on single core is just 5244, and the Multithread score is just 39210. On Cinebench I get 182cb / 2316cb, Blender Ryzen Logo : 17 sec.

well multiply your score with 1.08 and you will see the diference is really between 8~9% .....so really will you even notice comparing to what you have ?

"We don't need solder"
Yeah no that's not what they said. They published a paper that said Solder has a chance of cracks and that means it can break within the warranty period and... a company shipping millions of processors has to account for the number of processors it will have to replace, the defect %
Now whether it was actually something that ended up mattering is a different matter but don't misrepresent the argument with populist sentiments.

Im defo switching my 8700k for the 9700k
Aslong as it performs same or better than what iv got then im happy, cause the 8700k gets stupid hot in some games and i dont ever want water cooling
