Intel next gen CPU may come soldered.

I think the 9700k would be a far more interesting chip to overclock than the 9900k. Processors with HT usually can't overclock much while having stability.
And in essence, the 9th generation are all but Haswell/Skylake refreshes. Correct me if I am wrong.

I think the HT on the 9700k was intentionally removed to prevent cannibalizing sales on the 9900k despite having a higher cache being the main difference between both processors.

Basically for Gen 9, it seems like only i9 will get the HT treatment.

And so far, only one i9 model inside whole Gen 9 family.

And I think it will be the only model as such otherwise it goes into HEDT territory where Intel will earn less on mainstream platform.

Which also makes it the only model susceptible to the TLB exploit. Irony?

does that mean i will need a 360mm aio if i want a 9900k @ 4.7ghz for avx tasks?

I feel the 9700K would be the most optimal one to get even compared to the i9 9900k. If I were to consider the 9900k, I would rather pay more for a HEDT Platform since I believe it is the lower end of the HEDT Buyer's that look at this option in the first place.

If you want a fast, affordable HEDT and want something better than current 8700K, then the 9900K is the one to go for.

I believe 9700K will be the most popular one, follow by 9600K and then the 9900K.

With max turbo at 5 GHz, looks like another 14 nm iteration. We might have to wait for a real die shrink before seeing any clock boost.

But if you don't consider cost as the main driver, then it would be reliability concerns as mentioned in the article, and only a madman would think that. What if haylui commits suicide upon hearing of this idea?

Won't la. What Intel do has nothing to do with me.

Is Stilt going to the dark side?
