Core i5 still only 6 threads? What a pile of crap.

My favorite hardware news was actually the i9 series announcement in reaction to AMD.... I still find that just so hilarious.... like yesssssss Intel people want cpu's with more cores.

Boring. Wake me up when we have some concrete info on i9-9900K 8c/16t

The sad truth is that without Ryzen- i7 8700K could be 7700K with same 100~200 Mhz boost with new MB and chipset...
But most of the "Gamers" don't remember this, and for the 5% @720P~1080P performance boost they choose to pay to Intel Again- instead Helping AMD to keep the competition.
I get it when AMD had only FX 83XX and performace difference was massive, but now when the gap is less then 5%? those "Gamers" do deserve to be stuck with Intel's WalletRippers 😡.
Those CPU's are almost same as 6700K that was released 3 years ago! and now another "Update" you get 9X00 series-LOL.

Well, on one side it is "only 100~200MHz", on other side they may be good CPUs if price is good.
Someone with recent intel can shed some light:
Can non-K CPU like i5-9600 be told that it has Power Limit of 125W same way as with K chips? If yes, then one can get decent performance on all cores. (But they should have increase base clock here too, as in worst case scenario it will be no better than i5-8600.)
And then i5-9600K. Who cares about stock turbo clock? Owner is going to tweak it anyway.

Intel having a heart attack with it's "tick-tock" scenario.
Been "tock" for a damn while now 😀

Lemmeguess...the 8086K isn't a perfect 8700K, it's actually an early 9700K with some extra markup...

It's the same damn processor why do they lock off the threads? IT costs the same to make as an unlocked one so what is the point.

At intel headquarters it seems that they ve got some panic after the ryzen and threadripper release...excuse me...you know for what the bad blue people are releasing those i9 chips?
The extra die space that is being occupied by the integrated graphics is not allowing any significant improvement in terms of core count...it seems that intel is paying for their infamous $$$ marketing.
BLEH!
Celeron - dual
Pentium - dual w/HT
i3 - quad
i5 - hex
i9 - octa
That'd make sense...
...but then again when did anything intel ever did make sense?

Byebye Intel.
And a big BOO to all the 'tards buying their latest generation with "merely 100 and 200 MHz speed bumps".

Intel for sure has perfected it's milking business. It will work on the sheep who only care to have the latest and can afford anything.
They really have nothing new or are very stupid to think consumers are this dumb.
I love my i5 2500k to pieces but I'll not be a sheep, I'll buy the best cost/performance for all workloads and what I think will be more future proof (although it's impossible to predict the future).
