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.

In an ideal world.
Intel are pretty tight.
Unless they have binning issues for the i9 I don't really get why this exists? As it's a K model you could just overclock it to the full i9-9900 in 5 seconds.

So this is the 3700x to the 3800x but for intel ! Or the 9900k to 9900ks .....or the 3900x to the 3900xt ....ok you get the point ....i always find such cpus render pointless their bigger brothers normally the just clock 100 -200 mhz on max oc bellow their bigger brothers and even in stock you need to measure it with Benchmarks or have a huge render that takes hour to see diference of a minute or two....
