Intel 10th Gen Comet Lake thread

Pay close attention.


isn't the 125w tdp for the 10900k at its base speed of 3.7ghz per core, god know's what it would be at 4.8ghz all core, and hell a all core 5.3ghz would be astronomical number power wise, thermals may well be under control but power wont be thanks to 14nm++++++++++.
no one really knows yet what they will do, but i bet power draw will he high

I see price cuts incoming for Ryzen CPUs and older Intel CPUs. If the 9900K gets below £200 I might just bite.
I doubt intel will cut prices as they know people are locked into the 1151 socket and it's the best CPU on offer for it. I'd be very surprised if the 9900k drops below £400, the old quad 7700k is still over £300!.

Thats their official News twitter for investors etc.

Get your act together for heaven sake, google exists for decades use it.
SOrry you're talking crap.

There is no announcment of a September release, on their Twitter or anywhere else.

The *only* thing there is, is the usual merry-go-round of "news" sites quoting each other. Apparently "digitimes" heard a rumour/leak of a September release, then VideoCardz quoted DigiTimes, Toms quoted VC, etc, etc, etc.

So all the "news" sites carry this rumour that is not based on anything official.

There is NO official announcement of a September 4000-series release, and you are making it up 100%. Why don't you "get your act together" and stop conflating rumours with official announcements?

Why are you linking me to a Twitter account with NO mention of a September release? You are basically just trolling at this point.
 
Just quick search around the new motherboards for them using 3 fans for the VRM. :D:D


OH MY! looks like lga 1200 is the new hedt, fair performance but at the cost of power, figures, if the new 10th gen was on the newer 10nm node maybe lintel could challenge AMD but it didn't happen, at least not for a few more years. AMD long live the king!

Sadly, I fear you are right. It's part of the point of forcing a new motherboard, after all. Oh well, I don't need a 9900 and when I do need 8+ cores, I'll be evaluating Intel against AMD and it doesn't look good for Intel.

It's already been confirmed by motherboard vendors today, the CPU will pull up to 350w with all the boost options enabled. It is limited by temperature though - the bios won't let the 10900k just draw 350w on a tiny $10 cooler - cpu temperature must be under 70c at load for the full boost to kick in but when they boost kicks in that's when you get 350w and 5.3ghz, if the temps go over 70c clock speed and power draw drops

Not even a 360mm AIO is enough to get advertised performance from the 10900k, it's a custom loop and a big one at that or bust.

In previous generations Intel cpus would boost as long as temps stayed under 100c but for the 10900k the boost limit is 70c. I wonder why, is Intel thinking the cpu will degrade at over 70c???

would a 480mm rad with push pull be enough?, if not when Intel showcased the phase change system for the 3175x will be needed XD.

gotta feel for the poor vrms on all the new boards they are gonna get a hell of a work out XD
 
I worry about amateur system builders who think it's a 125W cpu and buy a 550W power supply for their gaming rig.

all retailer's should put up warning's of how power hungry the cpus become under overclocking conditions, i wouldn't be surprised if Intel refuse rma's due to cpu's dying using low end psu's, you'd be talking 1k psu's or 2 650-800w units in tandem if you got serious with overclocking :(

Obviously some of the mobo vendors feel the same........................hence the need for 3 40mm fans over the VRM's. Makes the the 1 fan on the X570 look tame and understated :D
 
Intel seriously need to get their act together, how on earth is such an enormous company still putting out 14nm chips? AMD have a fraction of their R&D and manufacturing budget yet they've managed to put out 7nm chips and are supposedly targeting 5nm as their next step. This is yet another launch where they're trying to paper over the cracks, it's a bit embarrassing for a company that were so far ahead of AMD at one point.

i'd hate that, its bad enough with my x570 chipset fan, constantly checking it making sure it works to avoid overheating, now z490 you have to check the same but often in hard to reach locations, if anything dies you could overheat very quickly and muck up an entire build XD
