Core 9000 series

Oh dear Intel :( So they put STIM on the chips but its not actually going to do much really, other than allow other businesses to hike the price of the chips on delidded Lapped CPU's, so expect to see £1500 5.4ghz 9900k's soon lol.
 
That heat is a deal breaker for me. Looks like AMD it is. Unless the 9700K runs a LOT cooler.

If you listen he said he also tested the 9600k and that was the same lol :( so the 9700k is also going to be just as bad...

Intel must have taken a leaf out of AMD's book, deliver an awesome product but screw it up at the final whistle haha
 
So Intel at the same place they were with the Pentium 4? better clock speeds than AMD but Thermals that are way OTT? and needing a whole new architecture rather than just a node shrink to fix this?

Ahh well, I can wait for 7nm Zen. I'd rather give AMD the money anyway tbh.
Im going to squeeze another 200Mhz out of my 4690K anyway as it's coming into winter. So I will feel like I have a new CPU lol.
