I9 -9900K Benchmarks leaked

When is Ice Lake coming? Is it next year or 2020? That's the one i will look at from my 5820k, better perf & hardware fixes for vulnerabilities. This looks good but I'd rather wait for the next chips.

I'm getting excited. I think this could be the one for me. I know that AMD will follow up with something crazy for less money. Like a 16core chip. But I won't use all those cores. For a gamer primarily this 9900k could be the one for me. Might go for the i7 though. Either way exciting times. I'm going to America a few times in Q4 so might get a deal.
 
So is this like a 8700k / 8086k with a couple more cores basically? Looks decent enough but I suspect, if my 8th gen is anything to go by, that it will be hot and power hungry. I find it weird that Intel are throwing generations out for fun, this must be the 3rd new gen release in 6 months? It's like throwing **** at a wall in the hope that something sticks.

Latest talks from Intel basically put 10nm to late 2019.
Thought I wouldn't be exactly trustfull of that.
I mean they still can't make it work even for small lower clock chips.

10 nm chips are currently slated for 2H 2019 but have been delayed half a dozen times already so I wouldn't expect anything until 2020 at the earliest.
 
When are Intel releasing a chip with better hardware level security?

I buy CPU's to last a long time and I worry this would slow down as new things are discovered and patched over the years.

EDIT: Ignore me that was literally just answered above.
 
tittle says "benchmarks" but inside i find only and ONE old futuremark link :/ .... disappointed

it was already discussed as someone already mention... no point starting another thread about it

I already stated I never seen it @Chaos666, but if you really need to be pernickety about it then crack on, obviously an English teacher as well, 'Benchmark' / 'Benchmarks'
Who actually gives a toss.

Coffee Lake 6 core was last October and the new 8 Core allegedly will be this October so that's two in 12 months with increasing core counts as you'd expect with AMD back in the game. Seems perfectly normal to me.
 
Well this is what we've been waiting for over the last 6 years, real competition. I'll just buy whatever is the best for my needs later :)

My perception of time is known to be junk :) Not going to lie, I got lost around when Intel got lost... So somewhere around skylake. I am even currently rocking more Intel than I ever have! Skylake & KabyLake G Laptops with a proper processor (1950x) in my desktop.
 
So they reckon they'll OC to 5ghz without much effort? Nice to know that there will be an easy upgrade out there if I ever do cap out the 6c/12t in the current gen :)

Unless Ryzen 3000 is amazing, obviously, but tbh I'm not expecting it to break 5ghz until the generation after.
