Marketing slides confirm Core i9-10900K, i7-10700K and i5-10600K
Well, it's not exactly a secret as to what to expect with Comet lake for Desktop, the difference however is that some leaked slides that do seem to originate from intel confirm some processors and core counts.
So here is the thing, over the weekend some slides of top three Comet lake models have appeared in Intel's upcoming line of desktop processors. The images partially confirm previously leaked specifications. The slides posted by VideoCardz confirm that the Core i9 gets ten cores. The i7 and i5 have eight and six cores, respectively. The three processors all have hyperthreading. The top model goes up to 5.3GHz with Thermal Velocity Boost.
The flagship proc would be the Core i9-10900K with ten cores and hyperthreading, where a single core would go up to 5.3 GHz with Thermal Velocity Boost. All cores clock looks to be 4.9 GHz would be possible, although this is not confirmed in the slides. A Core i7-10700K with eight cores and sixteen threads would lock in at of 5.1 GHz on a single core. There is also an unlocked Core i5 from the party and the 10600K. The six cores and twelve threads will run a maximum of 4.8 GHz. Intel reportedly announced the processors on April 30. Currently, the processor deck would show to be something like this:
CPU | Cores / Threads | Base Clock | Single Core Turbo | Max Turbo 3.0 | All Core Turbo | Thermal Velocity Boost | TDP |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
i9-10900K | 10C / 20T | 3.7 GHz | 5.1 GHz | 5.2 GHz | 4.8 GHz | 5.3 / 4.9 GHz | 125W |

Buying z490 asus Apex, and overclock the 10 core to the "moon"
Benchmarking with binned b-die memory and 2080ti.
That is "work" for a couple of months. Then wait for next gen gpu's, and repeat the benchmarks.
New hardware is fun toys, nothing more :p
What the name or color is, I don't care. I benchmarking them all

So you basically made a purchase with unrealistic expectations, didn't research before purchasing and it's now the product's fault.
I don't wanna sound like an asshole but you've got nobody to blame but yourself. It is well known and documented that the difference in gaming isn't there compared to Intel, it's multithreaded where the difference lies.
Next time do some research.

Im sure tdp is useless when it comes to Intel, thats a 200W 10core cpu that costs more than 500Eur while 8core is nothing but a 9900k with a different name. But hey, there is also a overpriced 6core that have HT now, what a joke.

Even after, when we all know exactly how Zen2 products are doing - and performing, we still have this conveyor belt of trash talk. Pathetic.
haha! I mean in some ways hes partly true I guess, Zen2 has no bells and whistes on the front (least if you just look at performance alone), but boy pop the hood and you get some of the best price to performance in a long time, including lower thermals, less power draw, typically more cores for similar or less price than intel, sadly not the best overclockers but the IPC is amazing... Just wonder if people get these chips thinking it will double their performance or something???

Well, bang on cue...and consistent as ever. I'm sure your Intel paymaster will be proud.
3900x - "nothing special about that CPU"..."I find that I just wasted money for mobo and 3900x"..."seen that level of performance with Intel for the past 3-4 years"
...Pretty damning!
And, also on cue...the back-up...
