Intel 10th Gen Comet Lake thread

A short summary of Intels massive improvement between a cpu from 2017 and 2020. Both 10 core.

Cinebench R15 multiscore:

Intel 10900k at 5.4 ghz : 3002 points



intel 7900x at 5.4 ghz : 3048 points

If all other things are equal like RAM ect I'd put that down to mitigation impact.

However depending on how close apples to apples it is does show there's only so much maturing of processes can get you .
 
Also in games,the mesh bus causes problems. IIRC,there were games where SKL-X was slower than Zen in,but the consumer socket SKL was faster than Zen.

Yeah mesh is hit n miss and you need to OC your mesh properly or it'll hold back the platform a fair amount. Intel's HEDT platform outside OC fun is pretty useless from a practicality standpoint.

If the needed HEDT for multi core scaling, quad channel or more PCIe lanes, TR4 is the way to go.

I do think the 6C/12T Core i5 10600K and Core i5 10400F are going to be solid choices for gaming IMHO.

zThe 10900k is slower cause of the security patches lmao. Intel have made architecture improvements, albeit tiny ones at that over the years. I bet without any mitigation's the 10900k score would be 200 points higher. Not that it matters as those mitigation's are baked in so the customer can't disable them

Ring vs mesh...dual vs quad.

I thought cinebench container run inside the CPU cache so the ram is irrelevant - that's why overclocking your ram won't change your cinebench score

and I'm pretty sure it also doesn't care about mesh, Cinebench is not a latency sensitive app

Finally we get some stock realistic numbers and not golden bin overclocks on exotic cooling

ahttps://wccftech.com/intel-core-i9-10900k-10-core-cpu-hot-power-hungry-at-stock-benchmarks-reveal/


At stock the 10900k runs at all core 4.8ghz, draws 235w and with a 240mm AIO peaks at 93c.

Thermal velocity boost did not kick in to boost the clock speed because the temperature exceeded the 70c ceiling for Thermal Velocity Boost. To get TVB clock speeds you need a cooler that is 23c better than a 240mm AIO

Steve From Gamers Nexus will call that 125 Watt's you watch ;)

OH DEAR, OH DEAR, OH DEAR looks like 360mm aio or custom cooling is going to be needed minimum to have any chance of keeping it below 70 degrees to enable thermal velocity boost

Also the pump needs to be after the rad otherwise the liquid might start evaporating :P

Well wccftech aside but jebsus if that's true. :eek:
 
Not all that surprising though, they're eeking all the clockspeed they can out of these things thermals be damned.

but if the latest leak turns out to be true the tvb tech will never be reached if a stock cpu hits 93 degrees on a 240mm aio, will have to bring back phase change cooling but for the masses XD
