Intel Core i9 10900K with 5.1 GHz boost appears in 3DMark specifications

We've seen many signs that Intel is getting closer to release the desktop 10000 series of Core processors. Z490 motherboards for the new generation procs keep popping up, plus weeks ago the entire line-up got already posted. We can now add to that a Core i9 10900K listing on the UL ORB of 3DMark, showing a 5.1 GHz boost.



The entry has since then been removed, but once something is public on the web, you just know it stays that way. As expected the 10 cores and 20 threads processor has a base clock frequency of 3.7 GHz. The boost clock, according to the benchmark software it is 5.1 GHz. New for the processors series will be thermal velocity boost, with enough cooling a core could run to 5.2 GHz, that's, however, not showing in 3DMark.



Intel's next-generation Z490 chipset powered motherboards and 10th Gen Comet Lake-S CPUs are expected to arrive in April 2020. The release involves the next-gen processor line and their respective LGA1200 socket based chipsets. There is a pin count change and that this, of course, requires a new processor socket; socket LGA1200 as opposed to the current socket LGA1151. Likely current coolers can and will fit though. The new chipsets would be named H410, Q470, Z490, and W480. The Q470 and W480 chipsets would be aimed at embedded devices, H410 would become available for consumer motherboards as embedded,  however, of course, would not be pin-compatible with the W480 and Q470 chipsets. Z490 is likely to support the 'our thang' that fast, the furious and overclockable chips in that enthusiast range.

  • Up To 10 processor cores for enhanced performance
  • Up To 30 PCH-H High-Speed I/O lanes for port flexibility
  • Up To 40 PCIe 3.0 Lanes (16 CPU, up to 24 PCH)
  • Media & Display features for premium 4K content support
  • Integrated + Discrete Intel Wireless-AC (Wi-Fi/BT CNVi) Support
  • Intel Wi-Fi 6 (Gig+) Support
  • Enhanced Core and memory overclock
  • Integrated USB 3.2 Gen 2x1 (10 Gb/s) support
  • Intel Rapid Storage Technology (Intel RST)
  • Programmable (Open FW SDK) Quad-Core Audio DSP
  • C10 & S0ix Support for Modern Standby

The new Intel processors will stick to 16 PCIe lanes and the slides do indicate that to be PCIe Gen 3.0, then another 24 lanes for the chipsets and in between a DMI 3.0 link, that would be a 4 lane interconnect.

Intel Comet Lake-S is using a refined 14nm fabrication node. This range includes the flagship Intel Core i9-10900K. This processor has a Turbo Boost frequency of 5.2GHz and also is listing a 5.3GHz thanks to what is called Intel Thermal Velocity Boost technology. The processor is tagged once again at a TDP of 125W, 10 cores, and 20 threads and a 20MB cache.  Further down on the listing you will find the i7-10700K. This processor would replace the i9-9900K and consists of 8 cores / 16 threads with a base frequency of 3.8GHz and a Turbo Boost of 5.1GHz. It also has a TDP of 125W and supports DDR4 memory at 2933MHz natively.

And finishing the K processors, we see the i5-10600K, which comes with 6 cores and 12 threads with a base frequency of 4.1GHz and a boost of 4.5GHz for all cores. These CPUs will rely on the LGA1200 Socket (Not Confirmed) and will use the new Intel 400 Series chipset. As new, this chipset supports more Cores (10), supports Intel Wi-Fi 6 and Intel Rapid Storage. No exact date of release of these CPUs is known but rumored is April.
