Intel is working on Core i9 9900 KF Series that lacks iGPU, also B365 chipset at 22nm

A couple of leaked slides show some new stuff from Intel, first off with their 14nm production shortage, they will be moving what is called the B365 chipset towards a 22nm node. The chipset would replace B360.

More interesting news, however, is that Intel seeks to plan additional processor SKUs. Intel would be releasing 'KF' models of the ninth generation processors. Listed are the Core i9-9900KF, i7-9700KF, i5-9600KF, i5-9400F, i3-9350KF and i3-8100F.

The models would not get an integrated graphics solution if we can believe what the Chinese description states. if so, these could definitely be a little more friendly for your wallet. When these will be released and with what specs remains unknown right now, TBA.

It makes for a smaller die i suppose, if they really aren't binned versions of current CPU's.
The Chipset is a clear step back though. They both show serious constraint at 14nm at Intel Fabs.

By removing the iGPU they would have more space for additional cores, but Intel being Intel who knows what they will come up with.

It's the price for performance that's matters

I would have thought that, but what TIM material will be used, on the K's at least i'd expect STIM.
Also, for the same amount of cores, you'd have a smaller die area. Thats harder to cool than an unused GPU.
It was quite a large portion of the Chip iirc.

edit : on wikichip the die view shows its about 1/3 of the chip on a hex core i5.
