Intel Core i7-10700K Features 5.30 GHz Turbo Boost
Intel's 10th generation Core "Comet Lake-S" desktop processor series inches chose to its probable April 2020 launch. Along the way we get this fascinating leak of the company's Core i7-10700K desktop processor, which could become a go-to chip for gamers if its specifications and pricing hold up. Thai PC enthusiast TUM_APISAK revealed what could be a Futuremark SystemInfo screenshot of the i7-10700K which confirms its clock speeds - 3.80 GHz nominal, with an impressive 5.30 GHz Turbo Boost. Intel is probably tapping into the series' increased maximum TDP of 125 W to clock these chips high across the board.
The Core i7-10700K features 8 cores, and HyperThreading enables 16 threads. It also features 16 MB of shared L3 cache. In essence, this chip has the same muscle as the company's current mainstream desktop flagship, the i9-9900K, but demoted to the Core i7 brand extension. This could give it a sub-$400 price, letting it compete with the likes of AMD's Ryzen 7 3800X and possibly even triggering a price-cut on the 3900X. The i7-10700K in APISAK's screenshot is shown running on an ECS Z490H6-A2 motherboard, marking the company's return to premium Intel chipsets. ECS lacks Z390 or Z370 based motherboards in its lineup, and caps out at B360.

Surely you have your reasons, but the ones listed dont have much when held up to the light.
Happy trails!
No one sells a quad-core performance for so much money :kookoo:
I really dont know how to respond to the rest of that drivel though, sorry.
Nobody gives a hoot about power use when it comes to cost...the point was cooling and quiet...;)
As for PUBG you can always dream, I'm sure we'll meet one dank and darky

Carry me!
Those Pentiums and Celerons with 2 threads and 58-watt TDP are crazy. Poor people who would have them, tell everyone NOT to buy those :kookoo:
Rocket Lake not but whatever comes after it should be more interesting as well.
Zen 4 is AM5 socket for only new system builders and not backwards compatibility with all AM4 socket boards!
At the same time as Intel also has another new socket too.... Intel H6 LGA 1700 socket with new architecture...Intel 12th gen 16 cores (Alder Lake) 10nm++
I personally am waiting for Intel 13th gen (Meteor Lake) 7nm+ on second generation H6 socket.
It's going to be battle of the Sockets very soon!
You've just earned another fanboy certificate, well done!
AND
we don't know if they actually use the same die - I bet NO!
Also, Ryzen 9 3900X is just a salvage part of Ryzen 9 3950X. Everything is the same, except the binning and maybe artificially disabled CCX...
Also... what sort of weird comparison is this? per core price? We don't do this when we count GPU shaders either, do we? We know the upper end has a markup bigger than its relative performance.
If you want to compare core counts by price gap, you also have to take into account the relative number of cores of the low end compared to top end. After all, if you have more total cores to spread your cost difference across, you'd expect a different pricing structure too.
So really, until Intel and AMD sell like-for-like cores AND core counts across the whole stack, you can't just put dollars side by side and say one is better or worse than the other.
Why are you comparing an F to a K all of a sudden? Is it because in a fair comparison your argument falls apart? I think it is.
/sigh
....who cares about gaps between core/thread count? Lol
This may be the first time Alf has been called an Intel fanboy...lol
Intel has much more diverse lineup.
This is fact and I'm not fanboy of Intel - I agree that their product lineup creation is better.
