I decided to rewrite post about i9-9900K to put all old and new discoveries in one post, so it will be easier to find and read.

i9-9900K is 8 core CPU with enabled hyper threading giving us 16 logical CPU’s. It was 95W TDP, base frequency 3.6 GHZ and Max Boost 5.0 GHZ. It cost about $529 USD.

If you compare specs with previous top 8700K you will see that there are 2 more cores (give plus 4 logical CPU’s), additional 0.1 GHZ base frequency and 0.3GHZ additional Max Boost frequency. It also has 0.5 MB L2 cache and 4 MB extra L3 cache. But guess what? Tech process and TDP didn’t change. Moreover, there were no big changes in
