The previous range of i9-9x processors are now out of stock. The i9-10x range are on Intel's site, but not in the channel. Any ideas on availability?

It seems ~16, maybe 18. the 12 core 3900X is some way behind the 16 core + CPU's which in turn is faster than the much higher clocked 9900K, beyond that its just clock speed, the 4.9Ghz 10980XE tops the cart but only by 0.01, good luck running that at 4.9Ghz in the real world.
For Premiere Pro the best value is actually the 3950X.
PS: Davincy Resolve is awesome
On the other hand, if you hate proxies and just want to get the best live playback performance possible, the new Intel Core X-10000 series processors are just as fast as the more expensive AMD Threadripper 3rd Gen CPUs for live playback. In fact, the 10920X, 10940X, and 10980XE all perform about the same for this, which gives you some flexibility when deciding which model to use. The higher-end models give better exporting performance, but you may opt for a less expensive model in exchange for larger/faster storage, more RAM, or other system upgrades instead if export performance is not your primary concern.

Had a good meeting with Intel yesterday, showed them that we have already pre-sold over 50 of the 10980Xe processor and they said based on our performance out ranking anyone else in UK and Europe we shall be the priority place and are pushing to get us some stock for next week potentially and enough to cover all our orders, so fingers crossed.
Why is this £1500? It's ridiculous in comparison to the US price.
