Posted July 24, 2018 Update July 25, 2018 Intel Core i7 9700K confirms not to have HT Original post below Not much to go on except some leaked picture on the the specifications for Intel's upcoming 9th gen cpu that runs off 8th gen architecture. The 3 cpus leaked is the Core i9 9900K, i7 9700K, and i5 9600K. Core i9 looks to be the first mainstream 8 core with HT, and the core i5 9600K, is about the same as the current Core i5 8600K, both at 6 cores without HT. What might catch everyones attention is the core i7 9700K. It's also an 8 core, but it lacks HT. Not really sure why Intel will go this path, but an i7, 6 cores with HT, would be better off. The core i9 and i7 both have an base clock of 3.6ghz, with the i5 at 3.7ghz. Boost for the i9 goes up to 5ghz, 4.9ghz for i7, and 4.6ghz for the i5. All of them have a tdp of 95w. https://videocardz.com/76808/intel-core-i9-9900k-i7-9700k-and-i5-9600k-possible-specifications-emerge Intel Xeon E5 1650 v3 @ 3.5GHz 6C:12T / CM212 Evo / Asus X99 Deluxe / 16GB (4x4GB) DDR4 3000 Trident-Z / Samsung 850 Pro 256GB / Intel 335 240GB / WD Red 2 & 3TB / Antec 850w / RTX 2070 / Win10 Pro x64 HP Envy X360 15: Intel Core i5 8250U @ 1.6GHz 4C:8T / 8GB DDR4 / Intel UHD620 + Nvidia GeForce MX150 4GB / Intel 120GB SSD / Win10 Pro x64 HP Envy x360 BP series Intel 8th gen AMD ThreadRipper 2! 5820K & 6800K 3-way SLI mobo support list Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted July 24, 2018 Do we have any idea on whether it will be a new chipset to 8th gen? Irish in Vancouver, what's new? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted July 24, 2018 now the real key is if Intel is actually going to solder these as has been rumored or if they will keep with the horrible TIM/Glue method they are using now and producing horrible results with temps.
