Intel Core i7-9700K Put Through Geekbench on a Z370 Motherboard
The Core i7-9700K will be Intel's second fastest 9th generation Core LGA1151 processor. The 8-core/8-thread chip is equipped with 12 MB of shared L3 cache, and clocked at 3.60 GHz, with 4.90 GHz maximum Turbo Boost. It's no secret that these chips will be supported on just about any Intel 300-series chipset motherboard provided you have a BIOS update; although Intel prefers you use one of its upcoming Z390 chipset boards for overclocking its 8-core chips. That said, there are plenty of Z370 chipset boards with fairly strong CPU VRM setups. Someone with access to the i7-9700K paired it with an Aorus Z370 Ultra Gaming 2.0 motherboard, and put it through Geekbench.
The Core i7-9700K yielded a single-core score of 6,297 points, which is marginally higher than that of a stock Core i7-8700K (3.70 GHz to 4.70 GHz), owing to a higher boost frequency. The i7-8700K averages 6,000 ±100 points in this test. Multi-threaded performance is where the i7-9700K comes alive, scoring 30,152 points, which is about 12 percent higher than the 27,000 ±500 points the i7-8700K scores; and about 4-5% higher than the 28,000 ±1,000 points the AMD Ryzen 7 2700X manages in this test. The lack of HyperThreading seems to be more than compensated by the two extra cores the i7-9700K has over its predecessor. The i9-9900K maxes out the silicon with HyperThreading and 16 MB L3 cache, which could enable Intel to target a higher price-point.

Intel should not be allowed to sell "new" CPUs with previously known serious security exploits which require software patching and the subsequent loss of performance which comes with it.

Both have nearly identical CPU performance in most tasks. The only thing that 9th gen i7 does better, is memory-intensive tasks (which seems even more prominent if you compare it to older and much lower 8700K results). Very convenient, if you look at DDR4 clocks.
But that's assuming it's stock CPU clocks for both, cause Geekbench is very-very bad at registering CPU speeds, unless you do a fixed max multiplier.
Higher clocks usually give higher Cine ST scores.
They'll probably both beat the 8700K/8086K in Cinebench Multithread (MT) :)
:rolleyes::lovetpu:
so, soon we see how 'good' ryzen 2700x 8-core cpu is..
i see amny useless hypeting it,likealways all amd product.. dunno why ppl want support it,amd not deserve it,lausy hardware coming every year.
so soon we seen as i say real battle intel 8-core and amd 8-core cpu battle:
intel 9700k/9900k 8 core VS amd ryzen 2700/2700x 8-core... qand winner is...??
i think im not be terrible wisdom if i say that ryzen 2700 series get crushed punch of nose and going kees..
no more handicap help for amd...its weird ...amd always want verify and competition tey product cpu and gpu for against lower level product...and then hypeting and hurray it...lol

9th gen vs 1.5 Gen my friend and AMD is gaining fast.

serious security exploits ''
I began to now think they invent them up to help insure you keep upgrading [faster] not hang on to your old still good working stuff ... that just cost them money ..lol... how many guys you see in forums get them ( meltdown, specter ) that cleaned there clocks and forced them to rebuild or what ever ? I don't recall any . scare tactic [opinion]
LMAO, just LMAO.
