Intel Announces Core i9 9900K Processor
During a live stream intel, today announced a Coffee lake-S refresh processor. Coffee Lake started as 8th gen six-core processors and now this is expanding towards eight-core processors. They have a TDP at 95W.
While not mandatory, the Z390 chipset based motherboards are recommended for the 8-core parts. The Coffee Lake 9000 are also based on a 14nm fabrication node, now with desktop in a 6-core and 8-core models. The Coffee Lake series processors are a refresh of the existing architecture and as such, the core basis is the same (as well as IPC). If we look back a little further, Coffee Lake-S shares design elements found in the Kaby lake and Skylake architecture, but now scaled upwards to 8-cores. The processor series is fabbed at 14nm.
- 9900K - 8c/16t has 16MB L3
In the initial release, you will see three primary procs, but that does not mean you'll only see a couple of processors in the Core 9000 range, word out on the street is that models like 9100, 9400 and 9500 Core series processors will be released as well. Next week the performance reviews on the newly announced products will go live. The presentation was a bit confusing for the Core 9000 series, Intel only talked about the Core i9 9900K, and nothing else. We'll add what we think we know.

Other website already posted some photos including slides from conference.
Most if not all Spectre and Meltdown vulnerabilities are fixed by Microcode + Software, meaning "software" mitigation.
Performance penalty at those prices. Da faq.

So let me Sum up the Announcement: Intel took all the existing SKU's, Replaced the toothpaste with proper Solder and showed it like "new Tech" that improves thermals/clocks etc', thanks to Soldered CPU's they raised the TDP and overclocked the CPU's - And now we got "new" CPU's and core i9- OMG it's sad day...
And the New 28 core "Beast" - same old Xeon with unlocked multi and crazy TDP - OMG- ROFL! well done Intel Marketing Department !
P.S- did any one count the number of time's they used "All New" in the presentations? we all know that it all same with n ew name-lol.

I'd say since it is $500, it is going to be a minimum of €500. Then it depends on the VAT. I guess something between €500 - €550.
Any word on EU price?

To add on what @MaCk0y says,
$488 converted to Euros at currant rates as of today = about €425 so then we add VAT on top of that, lets say, 20% VAT we're looking at €510 minimum - there will undoubtedly have import/export fees added as well as retail overheads so probably looking at €550.
