Intel Core i7 9700K Spotted Overclocked on Z370 to 5.5 GHz
Somewhere in Asia engineering samples of the pending Intel Core i 9000 series processors have surfaced. Someone grabbed a Core i7 9700K somehow and placed it into a Z370 motherboard with the latest BIOS. As it seems, it was overclocked towards 5500 MHz.
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.
As it seems, it was overclocked towards 5500 MHz based on just water-cooling, which is impressive. The scores then, in Cinebench R15 the new CPU reached 1827 and 250 points in multi- and single-threaded tests respectively (that is the overclocked cores). This places the proc in Ryzen 7 1800X / 2700X territory.

I expect 5,2 GHz in realistic conditions from i7, but not as much from i9. i7 and especially i9 will run very hot, so probably safer to just leave them at 5 GHz if you can reach that. This time water cooling is not a necessity, but I doubt something like Thermalright Macho B Rev 2 can keep i7 under 80 C with a clock of 5 GHz. If i7-9700K costs under 400 €, then it will be a fine deal if you are prepared with a good air ventilation and cooling solution. Over 400 € it's just not worth it and you can go straight with R7 2700X.
i5-9600K is probably a decent buy for very competitive gamers who want maximum FPS in their games and for those who just want 144 FPS all the time in games at the cost of graphical quality. i5 might be the real deal here, since it offers marginally something that AMD does currently not, but the more expensive options are for who? Content creators got to be real serious with their business if they are willing to pay for those chips and cool them properly at the same time.

5.5Ghz on Regular w/c now that is Impressive! The fastest ive ever had was 4.7Ghz on my old Fx 9370 I cant even begin to Imagine how fast that things is wow!
Intel for sure winning the clock-speed war!

I like how solder is magically ok now when they defended using tooth paste because of micro cracks or some bs with solder on such a small lithography.

No HT.
250p singlecore 9700k , and 2700x?
2700x @4.4GHZ 183pts

Owwww... they just forgot to tell what Chill or LN2 was used... and more... how many cores was at 5.5GHZ...
Its ridiculus how Intel try (and can) to deceive their fanboys....
Well, the piece of news mentioned water cooling so one could guess a 280mm or bigger.
