No 5ghz for us
I didn't realise AMD had launched the whole Ryzen 3xxx stack yet... Oh no, it hasn't, you've just got your knickers in a twist still
The 16/32 core was confirmed in case you missed it guys, it was shown off back stage on liquid cooling running at 4.1/4.2 ghz with 1.4v+ (which i guess means it's not ready yet) beating a i9-9980xe in cinebench
You never tell the girl you have a big one, on the first dateIf they have all the other chips ready then the 16 core is also ready. The issue I think is that there isn't a compelling reason to release it.

Lisa Su has got a big one?
Indeed but you might sneak her a quick look to peak her interest.
It looks that way. Holding on to a large one and it's only a matter of time before it slips out.
No 5ghz for us
So once they flop it out, you think it can grow much bigger with some coaxing?Given the head room in VII I wouldn't be surprised if we get overclocks up and around the 5ghz mark.
No offence to the lady, but she does look like she might have one, and a whopper at thatLisa Su has got a big one?

It's just the tip !The innuendos are real. I think that 5ghz+ is possible on this silicone and in fact I think the hand they have already played is holding a fair amount of performance back.
That's a gross oversimplification, and factually incorrect.
The 9900K has a base of 3.6GHz but that is not the speed at which is 95w is drawn under full load. Turbo works off tye back of thermal headroom, and you cannot have thermal headroom if your base clocks runs at the cooling limit. In reality, under heavy load a 9900K will turbo up to 4.7GHz until the thermal headroom is exhausted and then it will clock down to a clock speed that it can maintain 24/7 under the same heavy load. This clock down speed is where the 95w rated cooling is at its limit. For the 9900K that has been shown to be 4.2GHz.
The 9900K is an incredibly efficient CPU when operating at its TDP. The fact it never runs at spec, by choice, simply hides its actual efficiency.
Anyone that's read by my posts here and on Anandtech would know that I was highly critical of the 9900K's thermals on launch, but that changed once the true behaviour of it when propeely adhering to Intel spec became apparent. You'll recall there was an uproar amongst folk that didn't realise that this was also happening with the 8700K and 7700K too (though less noticeable at the time because they weren't throwing out silly power numbers that warranted further investigation).
In terms source, IIRC it was Gamers Nexus that first properly did a deep dive on what the 9900K was doing, and how it was supposed to operate according to Intel spec.

Here’s the frequency versus time plot when MSI’s Godlike is involved. For this setup, the ASUS board is still set to follow spec and has MCE disabled. The MSI board is under its Auto ET settings, which are the same as its Disabled ET settings. In this example, the MSI board is holding strong to 4735MHz, which is violating the spec in multiple ways: For one, BCLK is 100.8, which we already discussed. For two, the turbo duration limit is removed under these auto settings – and all settings, actually – and so it holds a higher ratio. Power draw is also higher, pegged to 152W instead of 95W from ASUS.
