Competition always is a good thing ! Battle of the multi cores incoming ... 😀

Only CPU worth grabbing from this lineup is i9 9900k, the price is absurd for 14nm+++~ Tech.
Wait for next year, Zen 2 comes out with potentially even more cores, lower temps, solder, higher Clock / PPC (compared to gen 1 Zen) for most likely a fraction of this cost.

I'm curious to know what Intel is doing with the 6 core part I mean did they tweak the die to just not have hyperthreading because that seems wasteful to make a 6core 12thread part only to have all of the extra threads disabled

what insane pricing
I really dont understand, what is the point of this if you can buy x299 for less today, which all intents and purposes will perform very similarly or better in almost any workload at the same clock speeds, and has more features.

the 7820x is on sale for 440 euros including vat right now btw.

raytracing is nothing new, that being said, cpucores are not suitable for raytracing in realtime, would still be faster to do it on a gpu without rtx support.
You'll likely see a "mixed" version of raytracing implemented for use on other gpus , if developers decide to implement raytracing at all.

This is just bad news after bad news.
I'm thinking about selling my computer and hoping the next console generation will deliver 60fps (I don't care about 4K, just as long as it's 60fps).

€732? WTF? Are they serious?

^ you just never know with Intel prices do you. If these are even close to being true they're all bonkers prices.
Still waiting for Zen 2 (Ryzen 3)

Boxed version could come with a AIO liquid cooler for all we know...maybe Intel are actually trying to market it as something big instead of just holding out their hands, because faster. And hell, it's going to be a LOT faster than Ryzen, just in the irrelevant range for most.
edit: to me it seems the 9900K should be around €600-650 retail around here, so let's see...
Embra
I wish I could say this was surprising.
And they will sell tons of these at these prices.
Laci
I agree, there will always be people willing to pay that extra amount of money to get the latest and fastest green-blue combo 😉

I guess a i5 9600K is the new i7 for gamers then? Anything above is overpriced.
MK80
i5 9600k is i5 8600 sold.... Same cores, same very cpu.... GOD intel is crazy or stupid.
MK80
with these intel prices .... good job

If it wasn't for the pricing the 9900K should be a damn nice CPU.
Jagman
Those prices can't be right, they make no sense o_O
Jagman
I think I'll ignore Intel for a couple of years, they're off their rockers 😕

I love how everyone is bashing intel about these prices because a random e-shop set them up. There are tons of overpriced random e-shops out there.
Jagman
I think it's more of a case of hoping they're not true (or even close to being the correct price), for a lot of people anyway.
vazup
Already found one with a price tag of 430EUR for the i7. I bet that they are going to be under 400 when they launch or at least a month later.
