CaseKing to sell i9-9990XE on its own

Seems der8auer's buddies will be selling the SI-only CPU to anyone willing to pay the €2999 price. Wishful thinking, but I'd love to see a few of these involved in the next round of #RIPLTT, #RIPGN, etc.

 

They also have a dual system you can buy if you can summon up enough money:

The King Mod CKPC-843 is actually not one system, but two machines in one case. The primary Core i9-9900XE-based HEDT is used for gaming, with an RTX 2080 Ti and an ASUS Omega motherboard, whereas the secondary Core i5-9600K-powered one is used for streaming with an Elgato/Corsair 4K60 Pro card installed. If you want to stream your games and still enjoy all 14 cores of the HEDT machine, you can dedicate the second Mini-ITX PC solely to streaming. The CKPC-843 costs €12,999.90 with taxes.

that name took multiple tries to read out ._.

It’s to make sure to let you know you aren’t just getting a good for the money PC, but a real King Deal.

Such an expensive rig and for some reason that second cpu is not a 9900k? Like, why?

It costs more than a damn car.

 

Ps: they have a 40k system as well, dafuq.

If you want my attention, quote meh! D: or just stick an @samcool55 in your post :3

An i7 8700 locked would have made more sense than an i5 9600K indeed for the second CPU.

 

Either ways the i9 9990XE is a bad processor, yeah... if it had iGPU and used Ring Bus then maybe it could be justified all the 'marketing' around it as the best CPU money can buy today.

It suits it intended niche in HFT perfectly. That it might not necessarily be the best at games or consumer workloads is not a problem at all for Intel.

Main system: i9-7980XE, Asus X299 TUF mark 2, Noctua D15, Corsair Vengeance Pro 3200 3x 16GB 2R, RTX 3070, NZXT E850, GameMax Abyss, Samsung 980 Pro 2TB, Acer Predator XB241YU 24" 1440p 144Hz G-Sync + HP LP2475w 24" 1200p 60Hz wide gamut
Gaming laptop: Lenovo Legion 5, 5800H, RTX 3070, Kingston DDR4 3200C22 2x16GB 2Rx8, Kingston Fury Renegade 1TB + Crucial P1 1TB SSD, 165 Hz IPS 1080p G-Sync Compatible
