More and more news points to Intel's launch of an 8-core 16-threaded CPU called i9-9900K. The latest news from Wccftech and Xfastest is that the CPU belongs to the 9th generation Core family and continues the LGA 1151 interface.
This is the mainstream desktop platform, and Intel will also have actions on the HEDT fever platform.
First, from Q4 this year to Q2 next year, the Basin Falls Refresh will be debuted. The so-called Basin Falls is the Core X for the X299 motherboard. Kabylake-X has been retired. The main representative of Skylake-X is the current Core i9.
This time given Specifications increased to 22 cores (7980XE is 18C36T) and LGA2066 V2 , meaning that Intel wants to play 'cat greasy', The Skylake-X Refresh processor is not compatible with the first generation X299 motherboard.
Then we look at the heavy ones, On the iterative aspect of the ultra-high-end fever platform (Ultra HEDT) represented by the Core i9-7980XE, Intel is actually introducing the Cascade Lake-X architecture using the LGA 3647 interface. This is supposed to be prepared for the next generation Xeon Xeon.
At the same time, the core number piles up to 28Of course, even so, there is no 2990WX in the second generation of AMD's second-generation Ruilong thread tearer, directly 32 core.
Finally, the 2019 server and workstation platform, the former upgraded to Cascade Lake-SP, The latter is the first Cooper Lake-SP, with 4,189 contacts (LGA 4189).
Although the lineup is a bit confusing, it is at least a lot, and the 'gunpowder smell' between AMD and AMD is getting stronger.
