Great gaming performance, Eight cores excel in parallelized workloads, Strong single-threaded performance thanks to high Turbo Boost clock rates, Solder TIM improves thermal transfer,
No bundled cooler means enthusiasts face additional expense, No Hyper-Threading Technology, High price tag

Abstract: Intel's newest line of desktop processors bring with them a number of changes designed to sway favor with performance enthusiasts. These new parts bring Intel's consumer processors up to eight cores, with higher frequencies, better thermal connectivity, a...
Great overall performance, Not as power hungry as i9
Still expensive, Doesn't include a cooler
The Core i7-9700K ends up as an alternative rather than something that's clearly better or worse than the i9-9900K. It delivers great gaming performance and uses less power, striking an interesting balance between competing features...
The Core i7 9700K is a really nice processor, a little less for heavily threaded applications, but for gaming it rocks. It is, however, a little more difficult to recommend when it's just about gaming as the Core i5 9600K makes more sense, value wise. For...
