Intel Officially Announces Marvel Avengers Collectors Edition KA Series Processors

[Uskompuf]

We previously reported on the leaked listings for the upcoming Intel KA series processors from a Vietnamese retailer. Intel has now officially unveiled the chips and provided some extra details on the collaboration. The Intel KA series of processors are identical to their K series siblings apart from the Marvel Avengers box branding. Intel is reportedly launching five models from their i5, i7, and i9 lineups the Intel Core i5-10600KA, i7-10700KA, i9-10850KA, and i9-10900KA. The box artwork was designed by painter/muralist Tristan Eaton, Intel didn't announce pricing or availability for the lineup.

When all else fails, make a gimmicky partnership/co-branding...

 

[dj-electric]

This is where memes come to die.

What happened to good old game bundle collaboration, Intel?

 

[Vayra86]

The box art was designed by who? It looks like a bad, overcrowded Photoshop!

Oh wow... so there is an actual market for this, apparently. Faith in humanity -100

 

[watzupken]

I doubt this will have an impact on sales to the enthusiast market which this fancy processor box is targeting.

 

[kayjay010101]

oh wow cool box with my favowite super hewoes! gimme gimme gimme! what's a CPU anyway?

 

[john_]

That's a really, really ugly box.

 

[Octopuss]

Let me get this right: this is the same CPU in a differently stylized paper box, right? Right?

 

[Krzych]

Damn, that's even worse than the name 'Ryzen'

 

[TheoneandonlyMrK]

Let me get this right: this is the same CPU in a differently stylized paper box, right? Right?

Seems so.

 

[Chaitanya]

Word का(ka) in Marathi language translates to - Why in english. So quite approriate labeling for pointless marketting or pointless CPUs.

 

[Easy Rhino]

Apparently this is the only CPU that allows you to beat Thanos.

 

[laszlo]

i can say only one word ...marvelous !

 

[neatfeatguy]

Reminds me of Tommy Boy when he makes reference about taking a shit and slapping a guarantee on the box.

 

[ratirt]

Maybe this Avengers Intel box is saying that the processor you buy will be just as unpredictable as the Avengers?

 

[Basard]

It WOULD be kinda cool if the IHS was anodized with a fancy design, or at least etched in monochrome. But I guess a box is good enough for some people.

 

[hurakura]

Just smell the desperation

 

[R0H1T]

Let me get this right: this is the same CPU in a differently stylized paper box, right? Right?

Of course not, it's from the alternate timeline. Focus people, come on focus

 

[Rahnak]

Judging by the logos at the bottom of the image, does this come with the upcoming Avengers game? It's so bizarre though.

 

[kapone32]

They are brazen enough to call it exactly what it is. Not box art but packaging.

 

[AsRock]

That's a really, really ugly box.

80's design ?, WOW hell no sure don't look at the box it gets put away but dam NO it's bad enough for me not buy it.

Pandering much.

So they labeled their product with some thing i want nothing to do with ?, awesome well done Intel.

 

[Spencer LeBlanc]

What makes this product better?
This year they put a 10 on the box (Tron reference)

 

[Turmania]

It is blessed with holy water giving you +2 all powa!

 

[Bansaku]

To make matters worse, they put Kamala Khan front and centre with... Iron Man?! Damn, why not go all they way and replace the latter with Captain Marvel?! I mean, both comics are bleeding numbers and both "heros" are universally despised by comic fans, so I guess why not Intel, why not?

Perhaps AMD needs to bring back Ruby and modernize her to reflect the CPU market.

Gamer girl water give you +100, 100 POWA!!!!!!!
