Intel 10th Generation Core "Comet Lake" Lineup Detailed

Non-English speaking Europeans, English-speaking (i.e. where English is the language of the country) Europeans have the € sign at the front. ;)
Well, I speak English... :p
I don't really care what the norm is, to me it looks stupid to put the currency sign after the numbers.
But yeah, I forgot you use Euro in Ireland too...

In all fairness, we put in first in Sweden too, even though we write the letters for our own currency behind, but that might be because it's not a currency symbol?
 
Even if Intel does "launch" these processors I can't help but think it's going to be a "paper launch" simply to keep people who would think about going to AMD to hold off on their purchase in hopes that Intel will have something to buy. Oh sure, they might actually have processors to buy but good luck trying to get your hands on one though.

Remember the 8700K paper launch? Yeah...

I had my 8700K since November 2017 and was a very rock solid CPU for the last two years. Probably going to sell it on Ebay this November after I pick up my 9900KS. (If anyone is interested my 8700K can OC to 5.1GHz all cores AVX-0 Prime95 stability @1.4v)

9900KS is the last upgrade to the Intel 300 series boards.

9900KS is a cheaper alternative to binned Siliconlottery.com Delidded CPUs.

Intel 10 Generation is PCIe 4.0 as all next generation Xe video cards are PCIe 4.0 out of the box. I also heard USB 4.0 is on Intel 400 series boards.

Yes there is 10 cores coming Q4 2019 on new socket LGA is true but this article is fake as its not for shareholders.

If I remember correctly the 8700K was really hard to come back initially when they first came out. Supplies were very constrained, most of the supply went to the OEMs and the retail channel got what was leftover.

Depended on the retail outlet how many they bought! Intel only gives good deals to retailers when they buy in 1000s at a time.

I bought mine from Memory Express
 
I hope Intel next generation is PCI-E 4.0. Because that's only hope for them.
That mean when Intel show up with next generation AMD could implement DDR5 and Intel will follow them with Extreme platform.
What you think is it i7-5820K capable to provide normal gaming performance until DDR5 show up. I think yes he can.
In one moment I thought to retire from hardware update, I was ready to borrow money for ASUS Dominator motherboard and Intel Xeon Gold, but then I gave up because AMD have same performance almost for less then half price.
But my next platform will be best I ever build. Anyway because economic situation in my region investing in processor with DDR4 IMC now will leave me with obsolete memory sooner or later but much before time for new upgrade.

And that's borderline lying.

Thats How it Works... is the same with Ryzen 3 It Said 4.6ghz boost clock. Yes That with XFR so IF your Lucky to Get a Good cpu and Got decent cooling that Can handle it, but Is like 5% who see 4.6ghz on one core. Thats Lying too.
 
Fake or Leaked on purpose to just stay relevant, but it won't be real product since even the 9900KS will be better CPU in gaming and some ADOBE style apps, so how they will justify the new socket cost?
Edit: another proof it's fake: Intel always adds small number on mem speed so you need to go and read the FOOTNOTES.
all of those reasons are valid but you missed the biggest giveaway, source: wccftech lmao
 
Next Diarrhea Lake on 14 nm++++, same Skylake cores at 6.00 GHz boost. Buy a new motherboard to go with it.

lol, new socket for diarrhea , no thanks ..

PCIe 4.0 is not going to be relevant for consumers for a while. I don't think even the few consumer SSDs with PCIe 4.0 can sustain that kind of speed.

Your overclocked i7-5820K will be plenty for gaming for a few more years.
DDR5 only provides more bandwidth than DDR4, and more bandwidth only helps if you are bandwidth starved, which gaming is not. And if you were, you can just go for HEDT and get more memory channels.

TPU's NVMe SSD scaling article states the problem pretty clearly - Sequential does have its uses and there are places where this is a huge boon but for normal (desktop/consumer) usage you primarily want to look at all the 4K results:

You do know that TLC and QLC SSDs uses a cache to reach peak speed?
You need like SLC or Optane to sustain such speeds.
 
Yup. So top sequential speed is even more for show.
And yes, I get it that 4K needs SLC/Optane as much as sequential ;)

I really wish we had more Optane drive choices, especially M.2 form factor.
Right now, there is 800P that tops out at 118GB and is PCI-e 3.0 x2 and 905P that seems cool except the longer 22110 form factor :(
 
The only thing correct is Intel 10th generation is on a new socket LGA and 10 cores 5GHz CPU. Intel didn't even release the 9900KS TDP officially yet but 10th generation has TDP quotes? 9900KS will be most likely 95w base 4GHz and 195w for 5GHz Turbo would sound to be accurate.

Intel Xe is PCIe 4.0 based and wouldn't make any sense having there 400 series boards with PCIe 3.0 unless it has something to do with Icelake S memory controller is needed in the future? Meaning Intel could quote "PCIe 4.0 Reedy" boards.

Just think there's PCIe 5.0 & 6.0 coming...

I agree with your point, but I'm not sure Intel have put that much planning into it. Remember that Comet Lake is yet another stop gap while we're waiting for Sunny Cove. We can hope the 400 series will be forward compatible, but I wouldn't hold my breath.
As for memory controller, those are located inside the CPUs these days, as long as the pinout is right, the motherboard can me made to support "anything".

Just think there's PCIe 5.0 & 6.0 coming...
For servers.
 
The 10th generation Panic Lake lacks PCIe gen 4.0...
more tabloid style writing from btarunr.
 
14nm when everyone else is at 10 or even 7nm ? Weak.

You probably shouldn't comment on things you don't understand, the size of the transistors is irrelevant; only the density of the transistors matters - and in this metric Intel's 14nm process is largely equivalent to the 7nm glued together CPUs these Taiwanese factories produce - hence the similar performance and power consumption.
 
Those "leaked" slides are fake thus the whole article is bs. Intel confirmed this. Please update/remove the article.
 
I'm so happy because nothing attractive is on horizon and give me more time to save money for something worth of investment.
Who invest in PCI-E 3.0 now could freely to gave up from enthusiasm club.
 
I can't believe this "news" is still up in the trending topics...
Right? But that's on @btarunr and his clickbait approach to news.
intel panic mode activated. Intel ceo in panic while desing 10000 series.

Intel ceo: Gentlemen we need to proceed to 10 nm now and get the marked back from amd. We are ready to do it.

Intel worker to intel ceo: eh we still have problems with 10 nm, we are only ready for laptops now and servers next year. Maybe in 2021 for desktop or at least 2022. But dont worry, we have panic lake...on 14 nm+++++. We have added 2 more panic cores, higher boost clock in panic to amd better ipc and we now call it panic boost, we will set tdp low and not tell about real world power usage or how hot they will run. It would look great on paper.

Intel ceo to worker: :slap:

Also intel ceo: lest leak some slides for now...
Well while Intel indeed is doing absolutely nothing,with all the heckling of their 14++++ and performance penalty witch patches,zen 2 absolutely bombed with frequency and overclocking allowing a cpu like 9400f that's costs 650pln here to match 3600 at 1000pln in gaming.

It is great that both companies now field nearly equivalent processors for gaming, however its been there for almost 2 years on Intel's side. I have been enjoying Coffeelake since December 2017.

zen 2 could've been so much better if it clocked to 4.8ghz

frankly,for someone like me that's sitting on 8600k/7700k performance with my 5775c,Zen 2 totally bombed and coffee lake i7s/i9 cost more than I'd like to spend.
getting a ddr4 platform now is a short sighted purchase anyway,it was always waaaay too pricey for what it offered.
