the 9900k will not do 8 cores 16 thread at 5k Stock either, i have no doubt it will at overclocked levels though

I had seen all these same comments months ago before 8700K and 8086K was launched.

People had been said:

8700K will not do 6 cores 12 threads at 4.7GHz stock either...

8086K will not do 6 cores 12 threads at 5GHz stock either...

After reviews went live, yes 8700K can do 4.7GHz all cores and 8086K can do 5GHz all cores.

People who bought 8086K are lucky guys, I watched youtube months ago showed 8086K OC 5GHz all cores without delidded ran cinebench fine at 85C on 1.35V but that quite too hot then they went back into UEFI changed voltage to 1.200V, amazed 8086K at 5GHz ran cinebench much cooler at 71C on 1.25V.

I think Intel done incredible job with 8086K. 9900K on soldered CPU will be very interesting, I am sure 9900K will do 8 cores 16 threads at 5GHz stock.

The 2700X is so efficient it will overclock on its box cooler.

Not true. 2700X is not efficient when it overclocked on stock box cooler, many reviews I read tested 2700X OC with stock cooler saw temp went through roof at 90C, too hot for a stock cooler.


The 8700K you can't overclock it on anything less than a £150 AIO

Not true. I overclocked my 8700K to 4.7GHz just fine with 6 years old Artic MX4 thermal paste used with my Corsair H80iGT worth £79 with a single ancient Noctua S12-1200 fan plus my PC case don't have any case fans. Very pleased with 35-40C idle and 60-70C load.

I probably will replace my old Artic MX4 and Noctua S12-1200 fan soon with new Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut thermal paste (should be much better than Artic MX-4) and new Noctua NF-A12X25 fan before upgrade to 9900K.

Bare in mind that guy is only using 4.1ghz @1.375v and hits 93c during cinebench. Under a longer synthetic load like realbench etc that would probably shut down.

9th generation?!
When at least 5 of these so called "generations" are basically one and the same thing - 6700, 7700, 8700 and 9900 one and the same... And the difference between 2600 and 6700 is minor...

You say this but improvements have been made, small improvements on each gen add up to big gains from 2600 > 8700
