Unpopular opinion: the i9-9900K doesn't deserve the enthusiast/prosumer i9 name and should have taken the mantle of the i7-9700K in the Coffee Lake refresh.

 

i3 is low-end; i5 is mid-range; i7 is high-end; i9 is enthusiast/prosumer

 

i9 doesn't belong to hang with the mainstream Intel CPU gang and never will be in my eyes. Enthusiast grade called, they want their i9 name back.

    Yeah I'd consider i3 as mid-range and Celeron/Pentium as low-end. Anyway, it keeps getting more confusing year after year. What would you call a low-end Xeon?

    Intel Atom?

    Atom CPU's are no longer a thing. Intel dropped their tablet/phone CPU line.
