With competition hitting them right in the face in the desktop market thanks to the Ryzen 3000 series, we still don't know how they plan to respond in the immediate future. We’ve heard rumors about a price cut for their current CPU’s and we got a new 9900KS but that’s not really a counter. The full list of 10th gen leaked so let’s go through it.

Starting with the i3’s it looks like intel decided to put a little more pep in their step by enabling hyperthreading on all the CPU’s. The 9th generation were all 4 cores 4 threads and now, well we get 4 cores 8 threads. They also all benefit from an extra Megabyte of cache which is interesting and they all get a slight bump in core speeds of about 200Mhz. Those chips will be priced between 129 and 179 US with only the 10350K being an unlocked processor. This means you’ll have to spend more to overclock and it seems like its the case with all the intel cpu’s. Since AMD has not released their Ryzen 3’s yet, we don't have anything to compare with right now.

Moving on to i5’s and once again we see the same move from intel enabling hyperthreading on all the sku’s. I think we’re starting to see a pattern here because the i5 also gets a bump in cache and in clock speed although they are a bigger bump than we saw with the i3’s. The i5’s will start at 179US and go all the way up to 269 for the 10600K which once again is the only overclockable sku in the i5’s. If we compare that to something from AMD, we have the 3600x which comes in at about 20$ cheaper, but interestingly enough, the intel part might be the better one here. At 6 cores and 12 threads, the 8700K is a challenger for 3600X so I wouldn't be surprised the increased clocks and cache are a match for AMD! Very interesting.

On to the i7’s and things look very very hot *That’s hot. The 10700 and 10700K look exactly like the 9900k except for clocks of 4.9 and 5.1Ghz respectively. Now here’s the thing, we heard about a price cut for the 9900k, but this price right here , for this CPU, is kind of insane. The 10700K with 8 cores and 16 threads will be , according to the leak, 339.Now that is a pretty big price drop from the 9900k’s 500$. 339 places it right under the 3700x for 9900K levels of performance. That’s insane. Look , I told you , I dont play favorites and this looks like a proper response coming from intel.

And lastly we got the almightly i9’s. Those were rumored for a longtime but here they all are sporting the biggest core count we’ve ever seen.. from an intel mainstream processor… 10 cores. DAMN. and they come with pretty extreme clock speeds too. The 3 models all reach 5Ghz minimum with the 10900F and10900KF reaching 5.1 and 5.2Ghz respectively. All 3 also get 20MB of cache. Those cpu’s will start at 409US and go all the way back up to 500$ for the 10900KF which is, once again , the only overclockable sku. In this case, the only comparison that can be done is with the 3900X from AMD. since we dont really have an equivalent right now, I wouldn’t know which is best although AMD’s single core has been really good against intel so the 2 extra cores might favor it.
