I9 9900KF ?? News??

Sorry, I know that everyone is against this processor, but since I'm putting more than 500 bucks into a i9 9900k I'd just want to be sure it is worth it. I'm waiting for the i9 9900kf, which, I think legitimately, no one gives a damn. I just wanted to check if the thermals would be better then the 9900k. I know I can disable gpu via bios etc. but when my money are on the table I just want to check the 9900kf before deciding which to buy. 

I knew it sould be releases at the end of january, and that it's preordable from some sites (at higher price then the 9900k, which is totally insane), but no words since the announce that it will be released. 

Anyone knows or have some rumors about the release? 

thanks and sorry for the question, I know it is some kind of heresy to be waiting this cpu.

You're waiting on the 9900KF? why?

 

The 9900KF is identical in every way to an 9900K with its iGPU turn off, there's no difference, even pricing will be the same as Intel already stated identical MSRP.

Intel is trying to sell the 9900 chips that ended up with a broken iGPU after manufacturing by calling it a feature. If you have a dGPU your motherboard probably turns off the iGPU so it won't draw power anyway.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Yup thermals will be the same because when the iGPU is turn off it's the same as being broken/non functional like in the KF model.

 

QuickSync is becoming an extremely useful feature on content creation software, in fact QuickSync hardware acceleration is what is making the i9 9900K outperform a TR 1950X with double the cores and threads even on rendering so yeah, whoever buys the KF model is at loss.

 

If you want a Gaming only processor the i9 is actually worse than the i7 9700K due to Hyper-Threading issues... so I have no idea what's up with OP waiting this CPU xD.

Thank you guys I know your points, and I believe them too, but put yourself in my pants. My pc is 7 yo, I've waited since now, wouldn't you wait the fried chicken one reviews just to be sure? 

I mean, thank you for your answers, really, but I'm just asking if someone knows when it will be avaible, so I can watch reviews and then, probably, buy the i9 9900k anyway, but with the certainty of my choice.

Due to it not having a iGPU in theory and in practice (to some degree) the CPU will be able to overclock higher and run cooler. But this does not meen that it is a better CPU for you, as the iGPU is sometimes a life saver when debugging what has broken with your PC this time. Also can in certain workloads be utilised to speed up the applications, so they are faster than what they would run at even without the iGPU and overclocked
