Intel Core i9-10850K $449 10-Core Alternative is now Official, priced 453 USD

Intel Core i9-10850K $449 10-Core Alternative is now Official, priced 453 USD

After all the gossip and chatter, Intel decided to make the  Core i9-10850K official, basically to stay price-performance competitive against AMD's offering.

Zooming in on the specs you can see 10 cores and 20 threads, a 3.6GHz base frequency and 5.2GHz boost frequency. Line that up against the i9-10900K and you'll see that proc has a base frequency of 3.7GHz and boost at 5.3GHz, so we're looking at an i9-10900K running 100MHz less. It remains to be a simple Geekbench leak, nothing else is known about the processor, it is not clear if it is a model that will be sold in the market, or that it'll find its way into pre-assembled systems. It is a K model though, multiplier unlocked.

Update: the processor has been spotted, costs 453 USD and will be used in pre-fabricated systems.

Update #2: Whoo there horsy, look at that. The processor has been spotted in retail with some SKU listings after all. it looks like the product will be available at some etailers.

Update #3: July 27th, 2020. Intel now has officially released the product and added it to its slide decks. It's the value proposition towards the 10900K at a more reasonable price, here's the product stack.

The point of such CPUs is that they can sell a lower binned part. It may not meet the requirements for a 10900K, but it runs fine 100MHz lower. If you buy this expecting it to OC as good as a 10900K, you would be disappointed.
There don't have to be any binning issues. Binning is part of every stack. The best dies become 10900K, slightly worse become 10700K. If they can put something in between to sell dies that still have 10 fully functional cores, just clock a bit worse, thats a win for them - assuming people buy it.
The point Stairmand was trying to make is why exactly is this CPU a K series. The lower bin basically implies this will be a worse overclocker, and when it comes to Intel, you pay a premium for chips that can overclock. The performance difference is so minimal that if it really isn't capable of the extra 100MHz, it might as well be a 10900 (non-K) and shave $50 off the price tag. The fact it can overclock but is ever-so-slightly slower means the price difference will be insignificant, compared to the full product.

So how many cores can actually get to five plus gigahertz at the same time?

good 10900k does 5300 to 5400mhz all 10 cores prime stable :)

One of mine 10900k does 5300mhz 1.27v @ load on Apex xii. 4700c17 memory

If this is 10850k is a lower bin, 4.9 -5ghz all core is maybe the "max" for most.
