Slides reveal Intel's entire 10th-gen series: Up to 5.3 GHz and 10 cores
Flagship Core i9-10900K is incoming
December 28, 2019
https://www.techspot.com/news/83349-slides-reveal-intel-entire-10th-gen-series-up.html

Something to look forward to: Intel is offering an appealing upgrade with their tenth generation of mainstream processors. Every CPU now has hyperthreading, and every CPU is getting a 100-200 MHz speed bump over its predecessor. The flagship i9-10900K is also getting two extra cores and a new boost mode that can push speeds up to 5.3 GHz.

Two Intel presentation slides detailing all their major processors have been leaked and published by Informatica Cero and confirmed by VideoCardz, who also helped to fill in some of the blanks. While the specs are in no way guaranteed, at this point, they seem quite likely to be accurate.

Core i9 & Core i7
The i9-10900K has two extra cores and its base, single-core boost, and all-core boost frequencies are 100 MHz faster than this year’s i9-9900K.
Core i5
Intel has finally relented and is giving their mid-tier i5 parts hyperthreading. They’re all getting a 200 MHz increase to their boost clocks as well, and the combination amounts to a decent upgrade.
Core i3
The budget i3 range is also getting the hyperthreading upgrade. The i3-10320 is getting a 200 MHz boost, and the other two models are getting a 100 MHz increase. We can conclusively say that the 10th gen i3 series is better than the 7th-gen flagship i7-7700K, which is absolutely awesome.

As a whole the tenth generation isn’t revolutionary, and for all but the most dedicated enthusiasts, the upgrade from ninth gen isn’t worth it. But it’s one of the bigger updates that’s happened in the last three to four years on Intel’s side, so it’ll be nicely competitive if pricing is in order.

In the past Intel claimed processors based on Sunny Cove (Ice Lake is based on it) should be immune to Meltdown, MDS, or L1TF / Foreshadow. Maybe disabling of HT is not needed anymore. Even if it is affected in some use-cases it is not that bad such as building desktop PC for gaming.

Well, I'll wait and see, for example, new Meltdown resistant Intel CPU's(9th gen) were actually more vulnerable to a new Meltdown variant(Zombieload) than older CPU models. Unless Intel will make significant CPU design changes, new sidechannel vulnerabilities will keep coming.

Leaked Intel document shows Core i9-10900K with 30% performance gains over Core i9-9900K
In multi-threaded workloads
January 2, 2020
https://www.techspot.com/news/83374-leaked-intel-document-shows-core-i9-10900k-30.html

Something to look forward to: We know that Intel’s 10th-generation Comet Lake chips are on their way, and they include the flagship Core i9-10900K. Now, what’s purported to be an internal document from Chipzilla has shown some of the official performance gains of the ten-core CPU.

The document comes from MebiuW, a Weibo forum user, via Tom’s Hardware. The main takeaway is that the 10900K is up to 30 percent faster than the 8-core/16-thread Core-i9 9900K in threaded workloads.
The biggest performance increase over its predecessor is seen in SPEC, where the 10900K has a 30 percent uplift, while there’s a 26 percent increase over the 9900K in Cinebench R15, thanks to its two extra cores. [...] Single-threaded performance increases aren’t as large, with the 10900K just 3 percent faster than the 9900K in XPRT.

[...] with the future Zen 3/Ryzen 4000 rumored to feature massive IPC gains, Intel could be looking at some tough times ahead.
We still don’t know when the Comet Lake CPUs will arrive but expect to learn more at CES.

Intel's 10th-gen processors haven't been announced, but they are for sale
February 15, 2020
https://www.techspot.com/news/84033-intel-10th-gen-processors-havent-announced-but-they.html

What just happened? Intel has sent out a wave of engineering sample processors, a few dozen of which are (allegedly) available for purchase on Taobao. If they actually shipped you one, then you’d be getting some very powerful hardware: those same engineering samples are beating their predecessors by 15-20% in a handful of online benchmarks.

Intel’s tenth generation processors aren’t confirmed, yet there’s little mystery surrounding them. In late December, Informatica Cero obtained slides detailing the entire lineup, and their information has been almost confirmed by about a dozen online sightings.

The flagship is the decacore i9-10900K, with a reported 5.1 GHz single-core boost and a 5.3 GHz single-core velocity boost. Two of its Fire Strike Physics scores have been uncovered, and at 28,462 and 28,988, they’re 15% and 17% higher than the 9900K’s average score of 24,741.
Seeing that Intel is shipping engineering samples in a fairly large volume, they must be getting close to release. And with such enticing leaks, that’s exciting.
Click to expand...

But like the 9900K, which requires specific and pricey motherboards and coolers to sustain peak performance, these new processors might conceal hidden compromise. Please wait for reviews before purchasing these chips, even if Taobao’s listing makes for an enticing offer.

Intel's 10th-gen desktop CPUs are coming soon, according to a Dell ad
We could soon see a successor to the popular Core i9-i9900K gaming-centric CPU
March 3, 2020
https://www.engadget.com/2020/03/03/intel-10th-gen-desktop-processors/

Intel's 10th-generation "Comet Lake" CPUs appear to be just around the corner to take on AMD's Ryzen chips, according to a new YouTube video from Dell. It show's the company's latest XPS Tower desktop computers equipped with 10th-generation Intel Core processors.

We expect to see a full lineup of chips from the 10-core i9-10900K (replacing the i9-9900k) to the 8-core i7-10700K, all the way down to Core i5 and i3 chips with six and four cores, respectively. To stay competitive, Intel will reportedly be dropping the prices and plans to bring hyperthreading to the entire lineup (currently, only the i9 series chips are multithreaded).

These CPUs should be competitive with Ryzen 9 chips both in terms of performance and price. However, they're likely to be much more power-hungry, devouring up to 300 watts at maximum load, according to Wccftech.

Intel Core i9-10900K Could Outperform i9-9900K By Up To 30 Percent
The i9-10900K looks to be quite the 'mainstream' workhorse
March 27, 2020
https://www.tomshardware.com/uk/news/intel-core-i9-10900k-outperform-i9-9900k-by-30-percent

As we're approaching the rumored Intel Comet Lake-S desktop launch, we're slowly starting to spot more performance figures that fall in a much more believable range. The latest test submission comes from Tum_Apisak, who has kindly trawled through the Geekbench results databases and found some figures for the alleged i9-10900K.

The Intel Core i9-10900K is expected to be the successor to the Core i9-9900K, packing an additional two cores and featuring slightly uplifted frequencies.
The results found by Tum_Apisak place the i9-10900K at a single-core Geekbench score of 1437 points, and a Multi-Core score of 11390 points.

Looking purely at core count, you would expect the Core i9-10900K to notch a 25% increase in multi-threaded performance, but the 30% figure jumps over that by a significant margin. The slightly elevated clock speeds would account for that somewhat, but not by the entire 5%, so we reckon there is something more going on.
Click to expand...

The biggest bit of information that we're still missing is what they will cost -- though given that AMD's Ryzen 3000 CPUs are brutally competitive and Intel does need to catch up, we somehow doubt the price hikes will be all too steep. Even so, Intel says it might take until late 2021 for Intel to catch up with AMD.

Intel Comet Lake-S slides leak, 10 cores at over 5GHz reportedly arriving on April 30
April 4, 2020
https://www.neowin.net/news/intel-c...-at-over-5ghz-reportedly-arriving-on-april-30

[...] Intel may be preparing to introduce the desktop counterpart Comet Lake-S lineup reportedly by the end of this month on April 30. This information comes from El Chapuzas Informatico who leaked the detail about a week ago.

Although not much, they appear in line with the previously leaked complete Comet Lake-S desktop lineup with no apparent changes in place since then.
Being on 14nm for so long, Intel has really been able to tweak the process to their advantage that even its mobile processors are now capable of over 5GHz speeds.

With a 25% bump up in core count in the upcoming Core i9-10900K over its 9900K predecessor, we should expect a healthy improvement in overall performance, though it still may not be enough against AMD's Ryzen 9 3950X in heavily threaded applications.

10-core Intel Comet Lake CPUs draw the same power as an RTX 2080
The new 10th Gen desktop chips are going to be hot and hungry for power.

April 9, 2020
https://www.pcgamer.com/intel-comet-lake-power-draw-turbo/

If you want to get a consistent turbo clock speed out of your new ten-core Intel Comet Lake processor you're going to need some serious cooling. And a monster power supply too, because at peak performance the CPU alone wants to draw 224W. That's higher than the TDP of an Nvidia RTX 2080 graphics card and actually about what we've measured in terms of peak 2080 board power too, which is… a lot even for a desktop processor.

Intel 10th Gen Comet Lake-S Desktop CPUs & Z490 Platform Official
First 10 Core, 20 Thread Core i9-10900K Flagship Chip With Up To 5.30 GHz Clocks For $488 US
April 30, 2020
https://wccftech.com/intel-10th-gen-comet-lake-cpu-z490-desktop-platform-official-launch/

Intel has finally unveiled its 10th Generation Desktop CPU family, codenamed Comet Lake-S. The new family of processors will feature support on the latest Z490 motherboards featuring the new LGA 1200 socket and a range of enhanced I/O functionality. The CPU lineup itself brings forth the fastest clocked high-core count chips from Intel released to date such as the flagship 10 Core, Core i9-10900K.

The Intel Comet Lake-S or the 10th Generation Core Family is expected to be the last CPU lineup to reuse the 14nm Skylake architecture. The Skylake architecture has been with us since 2015 and Intel has yet to replace it for desktop consumers.
There are a total of 32 SKUs planned for Intel's 10th Gen Desktop family which include six unlocked SKUs. There's the flagship Core i9-10900K which is followed by the Core i7-10700K and the Core i5-10600K
Click to expand...

The Intel Core i9-10900K will be the flagship part of the 10th Generation Desktop CPU family. Intel has a few tricks up their sleeves to offer even better performance than the Core i9-9900KS. The i9-10900K features 10 cores, 20 threads a total cache of 20 MB, and a 125W TDP.

The Intel Core i7-10700K would be featuring 8 cores and 16 threads. The chip would house 16 MB of total cache and a TDP of 125W. The chip would feature a base clock of 3.8 GHz, a boost clock of 5.0 GHz (single-core), and 5.1 GHz (single-core) with Turbo Boost Max 3.0.
The Intel Core i7-10600K would be featuring 6 cores and 12 threads. The chip would house 12 MB of total cache and a TDP of 125W.

The Intel Core i3 lineup is also worth pointing out as it is made up of 3 SKUs which seem to be part of the initial launch family. The Core i3-10320 would be leading with 4 cores, 8 threads at 65W. 8MB of cache, clocks of up to 4.6 GHz with a single-core, and 4.4 GHz on all-cores sound decent enough for what is supposed to be a budget chip retailing under $150US.

Engadget: Intel's flagship 10th-gen desktop CPU has 10 cores, reaches 5.3GHz

It's about time. After months of leaks and rumors, Intel has pulled back the curtain on its 10th generation "S-series" desktop chips, with the Core i9-10900K leading the pack. For $488, you'll get a 10-core processor that can reach up to 5.3GHz, with a base speed of 4.9GHz. And best of all, it's an actual 10th-gen chip, unlike the confusingly-named X-series processors Intel launched last fall.

If you're not willing to spend close to $500 on a new CPU, you've also got plenty of cheaper options. The i7-10700 looks like more of a deal, with most of the speed you’ll find on the i9 chips, and its unlocked variant might be decently overclockable. This time around, every Core CPU also features hyperthreading — even the lowly i3 models! —for better multitasking support.

Intel 10th Gen Comet Lake Desktop CPUs Now Available For Pre-Order – Core i9-10900K Starting at $529.99 US
May 13, 2020
https://wccftech.com/intel-10th-gen-desktop-cpu-pre-orders-core-i9-10900k-529-usd/

It looks like Intel's 10th Generation Desktop CPUs are finally available for pre-order at major retail outlets across the globe. Launching in retail next week, those who are interested in hopping over the new Z490 platform can now pre-purchase the CPUs so they won't have trouble finding a chip for themselves at launch if supply ends up being short.
Intel's 10th Gen Comet Lake Desktop CPUs Available For Pre-Order - Flagship 10 Core, Core i9-10900K Listed For $529.99 US
As of now, you can find the flagship Core i9-10900K across all major online retailers while a select few have listed down other processors in Intel's 10th Generation family. The Intel Core i9-10900K has been listed for pre-order for $529.99 US, slightly above the $488 US pricing that's purely for 1K units as made clear by Intel themselves.

As for the pre-order prices for the Intel 10th Gen processors, the unlocked SKUs are definitely higher priced than AMD's Ryzen CPU line-up which they would be competing against. The standard 65W SKUs seem to be feature prices that are just about right but you take away the overclocking advantage.
Click to expand...

Unless or until you're going for an H470, B460, or lower-tier motherboard, a Z490 with an unlocked CPU doesn't make a whole lot sense.
The H470 and B460 motherboards from Intel are expected to arrive at the end of May so if you're going for a 65W chip then you better wait a bit more rather than getting the pricer Z490 products.

Intel’s new i9-10900K—fast, yes; competitive, not so much
The i9-10900K's numbers are better than Intel's lackluster PR led us to expect
May 20, 2020
https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2020/05/intels-new-i9-10900k-fast-yes-competitive-not-so-much/

We finally got our grubby paws on the flagship SKU of Intel's new Comet Lake desktop processors—the (sorta) 5.3GHz, (well over) 125W TDP i9-10900K. Intel's extremely lackluster performance marketing led us to believe the processor would probably be little if any improvement over last year's i9-9900K—but, happily, that's not the case.

The more troubling thing for Team Blue is that it isn't only competing with its own CPUs. Intel's real competition isn't itself, it's AMD—and for now at least, the company is still struggling to keep its head above water.
[...]
Conclusions
The i9-10900K is on the high end of the "what we expected" range. It's a very significant year-on-year improvement from last year's i9-9900K, with—to our surprise—a larger all-cores than single-core performance increase.
Unfortunately, it still can't compete well with its Team Red competition—AMD's Ryzen 9 3950x came out first, consumes less power, drastically outperforms it in multithreaded workloads, and is only 3.0 percent slower on a single-threaded Cinebench R20 test.

Intel Core i5-10600K review: Mainstream performance sets a new bar
May 23, 2020
https://www.neowin.net/news/intel-core-i5-10600k-review-mainstream-performance-sets-a-new-bar

Comet Lake S is Intel's 10th-generation of desktop processors, and the family of CPUs was announced last month. Intel was kind enough to send over a Core i5-10600K and Core i9-10900K to review, and frankly, this has been a fun project. While I've reviewed over a hundred Windows 10 PCs for Neowin, I've never started with just a CPU.

It's worth noting that Comet Lake S processors fit in the new LGA 1200 socket, which means that you do need a new motherboard. You may not, however, need a new CPU cooler.
This is nice because almost every cooler currently on the market says that it's for LGA 115x boards; however, there's still a caveat. [...]
Click to expand...

And the Core i5-10600K is really good. It will get you solid performance, as you can see from the various benchmarks. Indeed, it's more powerful than before with hyperthreading and the higher TDP, but that higher TDP doesn't seem to come at a cost to thermals.
This is a mainstream CPU for mainstream gaming, and it absolutely gets the job done.

But the i5-10600K doesn't break the bank at $262, and it doesn't break the bank when it comes to other parts that you're going to need in your build. If you go for a more powerful part like the Core i9-10900K, you absolutely need to put more thought into the power that it will consume, thermals, and more.

Ten cores for less money? Intel Core i9-10850K discovered on Geekbench
A Core i9-10900K for those on a budget?
July 6, 2020
https://www.techspot.com/news/85886-ten-cores-less-intel-core-i9-10850k-discovered.html

Rumor mill: If you’re considering a 10-Core Comet Lake-S chip but don’t want to pay over $500 for a Core i9-10900K, a cheaper option could be on its way. According to a Geekbench entry, a Core i9-10850K is in the works, and it sounds very similar to the flagship processor.

The news comes from Twitter user and regular leaker Tum_Apisak, who posted a link to the Geekbench result for the Core i9-10850K. Assuming it’s real, the chip has the same 10-core/20-thread configuration as the Core i9-10900K while also boasting 20MB of L3 cache and 256KB of L2 cache per core. No mention of the TDP but expect it to be around 125W.

— APISAK (@TUM_APISAK) July 3, 2020
The only real difference between the two chips are the clock speeds. The upcoming CPU's base clock is down as 3.6 GHz, making it just 100 MHz slower than the Core i9-10900K. It can boost up to 5.18 GHz, whereas its sibling can hit 5.3 GHz with Thermal Velocity Boost (TVB), suggesting the Core i9-10850K lacks this feature.

Intel's Core i9-10850K is a 100MHz slower, $35 cheaper 10900K
July 27, 2020
https://www.pcworld.com/article/356...50k-is-a-100mhz-slower-35-cheaper-10900k.html

What's the value of 100MHz? Apparently $35. At least that's how much of a discount Intel will give those who buy the new Core i9-10850K "Comet Lake-S" CPU it officially unveiled today.

So why did Intel bother stapling the Core i9-10850K onto a 10th-gen lineup that officially rolled out just over two months ago? "The i9-10850K is based on immediate feedback we’ve received from customers, including to further expand options and different price points," the company says. "This will also obviously support long term demand for i9K processors as well."
More cynical observers believe Intel's really aiming to make lemonade out of lemons by taking 10-core dies that don't quite reach the full Core i9-10900K levels and selling them as Core i9-10850K chips
