Intel To Release Core i9 9900KS processor: runs 5 GHz on all eight cores

Intel today announced a new processor prior to the start of Computex, the Core i9 9900KS processor will have 5 GHz boost activated on all eight cores.

So basically in threaded workloads where one or all threads are utilized, the processor will jump to 5 GHz in all threads/cores. The existing Core i9 9900K, which has one core active up to 5 GHz, and all core stress translates towards a maximum of 4.7 GHz on all cores.

Intel did not share any details on what the TDP is going to be for this SKU, as certainly it'll be higher than 100 Watts. Intel shows a demo that at standards utilizes all-in-one water cooler. Intel has not disclosed a price either.

Didn't know you were vulnerable while gaming. :p

On topic.

Not entirely sure if this is designed for gaming, and would only be of marginal use for desktop use.

Most likely just a special edition, simply because they can.

Your feelings are vulnerable to bullying while you game! And do not forget your 1337 pride is also in the line so paying 500 usd instead of 350 to get 102 fps instead of 100 is not just 2 fps ! Is for the sake of your mental well being and that's priceless !
