Sorry for the rather threadbare preceding pages, but our results speak for themselves. The Core i9-9900K often shadows chips costing nearly twice as much in multithreaded workloads while delivering unbeatable single-threaded responsiveness, gaming perfor...
Intel has stepped up to the plate with the Core i9-9900K CPU. We all know that AMD's Ryzen 7 2700X is exactly where Intel set its sights and it is surely on target when it comes to performance in any workload you assign it to. The 9900K is a the better CP...
After using the Intel Core i9-9900K for the past week we found it to perform exactly like we expected it to. Intel finally has a mainstream 8-core, 16-thread processor to compete with AMD's parts with the same core and thread count. The 9900K was able to...
8 cores and 16 threads, 5 GHz boost, Trades blows with more expensive Core i9-7900X, Unlocked multiplier, Soldered IHS, Works on existing LGA1151 platform, even with Z370 motherboards, Integrated graphics, Supports up to 128 GB memory
High price, Held back by power limits, Only small gaming performance improvements, No heatsink included, Weak integrated graphics
The Core i9-9900K is currently listed on Amazon for $530. For some reason, the Newegg price, which we usually use, is $580. 8 cores and 16 threads 5 GHz boost Trades blows with more expensive Core i9-7900X Unlocked multiplier Soldered IHS Works on existin...
8-core, 16-threads, Best performing mainstream processor we've reviewed, Great gaming performance, Solder thermal interface material (STIM), Can easily reach 5.0 GHz or above when overclocking
Price compared to competition
So Intel's newest flagship mainstream processor is here and as you saw from the past few pages it tops the results in almost all of the tests that we ran. So let's talk about what Intel has done with the 9th generation Core processors and specifically the...

The 9th Generation of Intel CPUs has taken the increased core count we saw from the 8th Generation and pushed it a little further. The Intel Core i9-9900K now has eight core and sixteen threads to help your system work as quickly as possible, whilst doing...

Abstract: Intel sent over the Core i9 9900K as their first 9th Gen Coffeelake-S CPU hitting store shelves today. With the embargo on that now expired, let's have a look at how well this eight-core / sixteen-thread processor performs under Linux.The Core i9 9900K is...

The Best Single-Thread Performance, Strong Multi-Thread Performance, Hardware-Level Exploits Patched, More Cores, More Cache, Compatible With Existing Mobos, Solder TIM
In its stock configuration, the Core i9-9900K's power consumption is also in-line with expectations. The processor appears to be approaching the limits of Intel's 14nm manufacturing process, however, and will require robust cooling and a quality motherboa...
