Intel Core 9x00 Processor Prices Listed at Singapore Distributor

by Hilbert Hagedoorn on: 09/12/2018 08:22 AM | source: reddit (Dylan522p ) | 56 comment(s)

We've seen some early price leaks on the Core i5 and i7 9000 series processors a couple of times already, however things are starting to solidify a bit more as distributor BizGram in Singapore is listing the new procs in a flyer.

Now a couple of things first, the prices that you see listed are from Singapore, that means these are listed at SGD, we'll need to convert that. Next, to that, this is a distributor, who sells their stuff to retailers, e.g. Now I can only assume that local VAT needs to be added to the prices:

That said, here we go converted to USD.

Core i3-9350K is listed at 252 SGD = $189.99
Core i5-9600K is listed at 370 SGD = $269.99
Core i7-9700K listed at 518 SGD= $379.99
Core i9-9900K listed at 666 SGD = $479.99.

Also, interesting to see is the 9350K. The snapshot also once again confirms cores and threads.

i7-9700K is going to be a gaming king.

Rememer that HT and SMT lowers gaming performance in 99.9% of games. Same thing happends on Ryzen. Performance increase with SMT OFF. Go check out Gamers Nexus for proof. They most often include both SMT ON and OFF in their game tests. Also HT on / off sometimes. Performance are always worse with HT/SMT enabled.
Check your eyes. Check your dates. Check your conditions...
Then think about Zen vs Zen+ and HPET ON/OFF benchmarking.
I can already tell you that Zen 2 will be far slower than 8700K in high fps / CPU bound gaming.

I expect AMD to double core count on 7nm chips. Low clocks again. 200-300 MHz higher maybe. Arch is not geared for high clocks. It's made for scalability and high core/thread count. This is NOT what games are looking for.
I can already tell you that: You are spreading BS. There is no business model which would make AMD release 16C/32T for desktops. Users have no use for it. Doubles expense.
What Zen2 has is simple. 8~15% improved IPC, 5~10% increased clock. That's 13,4~26,5% higher performance than Zen+. Those numbers are what AMD promised and they stated that Zen2 overachieved its target.

It still remains to be seen, but 7nm EPYC will speak.
And there is simple reason why intel wants to be quickly 1st to market. I am sure even you can think that reason yourself.

He said the same for 8086 i7 praising it to sky and beyond, now he started with 9700 and what not.

I'm pretty sure AMD will kick Intel in the teeth when these puppies release. AMD are gonna rub salt in that wound and lower their 2600 and 2700 prices even more.

I have it on good authority that this will 100% happen and etailers have already been prepped on this.

$479 for 9900k is actually a good price. Let's see if this hold out to be true, and not just some placeholder price.

True 479$ is good for 9900k now only 2080ti for 800$ and 4K 144hz display for 600$ and its time to get new desktop

Wait, have we reached the point where a mainstream CPU for around 500€ is considered a great price???

Indeed. It's like "Intel is only marginally screwing us over on price. This is very good!" XD

And gamers are still a little portion of the CPU segment. Not to speak of high refresh gamers within gamers. Most of the players take a balanced setup, meaning maybe <1% of the gamers use a 1080 or 1080Ti on FHD.

Hah, I'm part of a 1%. Take that 99%'ers!!! :rolleyes:

Can't tell if you're joking or just plain dumb.

Hyperthreading does the complete opposite of what you said lol. It makes games run faster and smoother, not by a huge amount but it does.

To anyone passing through these comments, please don't listen to this guy. Hyperthreading has been around for years, and never once have I seen someone complain about it.

Just search the internet for if hyperthreading reduces performance and you'll get your answer.

This is the first time I've made an account for the sole purpose of replying to crap like that. What an idiot..

You must not have a lot of computer experience.

HT did hurt some applications/games somewhat when said application did not know how to deal with SMT.
This was commonplace years ago.

Today, yes, it usually does not hurt performance or help, but some games do like SMT like battlefield series

Well when you consider GPU's are going for € 1400 a piece now... Kinda

Anyways I'm eyeballing this CPU, better IPC then what I have, ability to finetune AVX workloads in the BIOS (similar to Skylake I presume, this is actually holding my OC back on my 5820K, I can get it stable over 4.5 Ghz, but the second I hit an AVX workload the temps sky rocket) and the promise of solder instead of garbage TIM.

It's not like I'm going to upgrade my GPU any time soon, I have a decent amount of money, but € 1400 for having a half decent upgrade, NVIDIA can go screw itself.

It used to hurt, similar to some power saving features of Windows. But nowadays it seems most developers managed to alleviate most of these issues and sometimes even harness the extra performance of SMT.

I think that games need to be programmed to be like what they want.
I bet there are part of a frame that can be created ahead, even with different output if you decide to use more cores.
So more core count is what games in 2018 and 2019 are not looking for, but the future can be written

More absurd than this 9700K costs USD 380 is people (fanboys) say that "will be game king"???
I think these people does not know read charts... in 1440p and 4k THERE IS NO FPS DIFERENCE compared to RYZEN+... even ryzen...
And than these people will pay USD 100 plus (a 2700x was sold by USD 289,00 at ebay last week) to gain no more than 3% FPS in a few games?!?!
Think about and starts to use their brains and invest it on a better VGA, better latency Memory and how to do some good overclock and you will really "gain" true FPS on your games
COME ON.......

Have fun with Ryzen or whatever suites you're needs.

If you aren't gpu bottlenecked in 1440p, then there is difference like 1080p. In average and min fps.

Completely agree.
Yet we see 27" monitors cost £2200 and mainstream GPU £900-£1200, and still people buy them instead of boycott them.
And anyone who complains against it, is a hater and competitor fanboy. Yet not even 1/5th of them actually buy the product.

Pure religious fanatics.

That 2700X was expensive. in UK is sold (Amazon) for £285 (2700X) and £252 (2700) which includes 20% VAT (sales tax).

And I agree with you about fine tuning. Bought a new Vega 64 Nitro+ in July (2 8-pin), spend 20 minutes tinkering the settings in wattman (downvolting/overclocking), and while is consumes 280W, it beats by country miles the performance of the GTX1080 @ 2190 i had previously. And I am not the only one who used those settings, others achieved the same perf on the Red Devil also.

Also that shows, how half a*sed the reviewers are when comes to Vega GPU reviews.
