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.

Until we see prices, Intel remains not interesting in my eyes.

Here's a game for 2020:
Each time Intel adds a "+" to their 14nm tech process, take a shot.
Must be a boring game, since they don't do that anymore. Only trolls invent those names at this point.

Will unlock clock speed only on two SKUs.
And 5,3Ghz is nothing to sneer at, trouble is that apart from the high clock speed, there aren't many things in Intel's favour as a overall platform.
And there is no mention of disable HT, or performance loss by applying the vulnerability patches.
TL;DR too little, too late, IMHO.
Here is an idea Intel: get your head out of your butt, hire people who can open-source and develop better your Management Engine, add more security layers without performance loss and adjust prices.
Yes, there will be an uphill battle, but you spent too much time sleeping on your laurels.
But hey, feel free to ignore my opinion.

Not very interesting to begin with but when nVidia finally moves its cards to PCIE 4 (probably around June) Intel will be completely dead on the desktop. No one will want to buy obsolete tech.
