Pfff they should make pay per view fight matches where every company should bring their champion to fight each other in cage matches to death ,for the privilege of buying their cpus!

AMD should do the same with a cherry picked Thread Ripper or Ryzen!

I sense 360mm radiar to keep is cool here... 255W?This will eat up 350W in peak. Thanks Intel for the kettle!:D

*sigh* Gone are the days when people were fine with 255W for kick ass performance... we need more POWAH! 😀

Will 9990XE (14-core) be less 4 cores than 9980XE (18-core)????

Overclockers are used to high watt usage, so 250-350w is no problem. Using coustom watercooling for my 7980xe @ 4.7ghz, 9900k @ 5.3 ghz, 1950x @ 4.2ghz all cores. Need for speed> powersave 😀

I guess they need more money, because their current overpriced lineup doesn't make them enough?

i'm pretty happy with high TDP cpus, all this auction thing seems like a very dumb move for me, but it looks like Intel is untouchable, they are still doing great even after all their awful business practices.

that's the rumor.. higher clocks instead of core count

I don't understand the point of this. Surely, it shouldn't be that hard to overclock a 9940 to 5GHz (let's face it - if you've got the budget for such a CPU, you've got the budget for a good cooling system and PSU). Aside from the most diehard Intel fans, I don't see why anyone would care about this.

I also found this confusing. Shouldn't it be the 9940XE?

More of a novelty. It may sell for a lot to an Intel collector.

Stranger things have happened before... Also if you like manga, give Kengan Ashura a try, is a very nice one.
