Core i9-10900K can boost to 5.3 GHz, more specifications of 10th Gen Core Comet Lake-S leak
One more Intel related post today as a heavy on impact series of slides just leaked including information on the Core i9-10900K CPU with 10 cores and 20 threads. Indeed 125W but it clocks at 3.7 GHz base towards a 5.2 GHz in boost. A new feature called Velocity Boost will unlock clock speeds up to 5.3 GHz, but only for two SKUs: 10900K and 10900 non-K.
The information leaked at Informatica Cero, and shows Intel Comet Lake-S Gen 10 to arrive in 2020 again using the refined 14nm fabrication node. This range includes the flagship Intel Core i9-10900K. This processor has a Turbo Boost frequency of 5.2GHz and also is listing a 5.3GHz thanks to what is called Intel Thermal Velocity Boost technology. The processor is tagged once again at a TDP of 125W, 10 cores, and 20 threads and a 20MB cache.
Further down on the listing you will find the i7-10700K. This processor would replace the i9-9900K and consists of 8 cores / 16 threads with a base frequency of 3.8GHz and a Turbo Boost of 5.1GHz. It also has a TDP of 125W and supports DDR4 memory at 2933MHz natively.
And finishing the K processors, we see the i5-10600K, which comes with 6 cores and 12 threads with a base frequency of 4.1GHz and a boost of 4.5GHz for all cores. These CPUs will rely on the LGA1200 Socket (Not Confirmed) and will use the new Intel 400 Series chipset. As new, this chipset supports more Cores (10), supports Intel Wi-Fi 6 and Intel Rapid Storage. No exact date of release of these CPUs is known but rumored is April.

Another intel news and another intel amd die hard fans clash...
I don't see prices yet for both the cpu and platform.
It seems to me that Intel is going for the speed here and amd for number of cores, cache size and efficiency.
All that I can tell is: There is something for everyone.
You are more inclined to a home desktop & database server pc and you need big cache for serving data queries and working multi thread? - Amd got you covered.
You want to play games at the top 1.5 more frames than competition - Intel got you covered.
So, something for everybody.

They don't do what anymore?
Last time I checked they have reused to the bone the same tech process with tweaks and optimizations. Fanboy all you want, fact is a fact.

@squalles Pray, can you describe the 3700X weakness?
And what makes Intel 9900K "soo strong"?
mainly performance in games, i see almost 20fps of difference
its a huge difference to play on 144hz, its like a ryzen running one rtx 2080 with a rtx 2070 performance

And what about people who create content and make whatever minus gaming, your opinion still stands?

My yawnometer just hit the red area. I still hope for good competition tho... We need it for reasonable 4xxx Ryzen prices
Ye, I compared my 3900x(my home rig) to 9900k(in my office) and with Ryzen the system is way more responsive while using multiple apps. No compare here. I didnt check the 9900k for gaming tbh, but yes the wave of hot air is so much stronger
Well yeah that's a pretty trustable "source" isn't it?
