What are your thoughts on the announced 9th gen cpus ?

I will probably get it along with a Formula XI.

 

Been waiting for 16 threads from intel without going XE.

 

As strange as it seems the 9 USB ports are a big selling point for me.

 

Prices are a bit crappy though.

 

 

what cpu ?

overpriced, fastest gaming cpus for 12-14months, overpriced on purpose, 9900k will still go out of stock,  feels exactly like nvidia's launch. 9600k is useless

 

Edit: just checked that 9600k is soldered also, so decent gaming on a budget after oc.

Seems silly to me to forgo 4 threads to step into the i7 8 core cpu with very minimal other improvements, just surface reading though. Seems that they've also increased the price over general releases. Idk. New hardware is becoming less and less entertaining and more and more frustrating.

Sorry if I stop responding, I've probably gotten busy as I mostly am only on here while working.

Wait a bit and prices should normalize after a few months post-release.

I9 9900k look like the most interesting intel cpu right now. Im dissapointed in there new hedt line up. Still 18 cores and a tard more exspensive again.

 

The problem is just that if i want a new pc it will be on hedt platform. I9 9900k looks great on it own and soldered finnally.

 

But for now i will stick to x58 and my i7 980X

With the inflated intel prices here in europe i expect em to cost 700+ euro

I7 8700k was 379 at launch, its now at 599

Let's agree to disagree

I'd wait for Zen 2, tbh.  This doesn't seem like a big upgrade from 8th gen CPUs at all.

Yeah - I am coming from a 4770K though.
