Intel showed a new i9-9900KS processor with a turbo-frequency of 5 GHz per core
Yesterday, Intel unveiled its new eight-core processor (16 threads) i9-9900KS with a clock frequency of 5.0 GHz per core in Turbo mode. Turbo mode in Intel processors is a system that automatically raises the core clock frequency as the CPU load increases and is not overclocking. The base frequency of the new 9900KS will be 4.0 GHz per core.
Although the base and Tubro-frequency numbers are impressive, Intel can hardly be called good. The new i9-9900KS is actually a modification of the already familiar i9-9900K , which the company's engineers themselves admit. The new 9900KS uses almost the same layout and process technology at 14 nm as the 9900K, and engineers were able to achieve an increase in frequency thanks to a number of improvements. Also, no changes were made to the integrated graphics: the i9-9900KS will be equipped with the same Intel UHD 630 as the predecessor.
In fact, the new i9-9900KS received an increase of 300 MHz Turbo-frequencies for all cores - for i9-9900K this parameter was 4.7 GHz for all cores and 5.0 GHz with “boxed” overclocking of only CPU0. As an advantage, the “new” i9-9900KS will be fully compatible with motherboards supporting i9-9900K.

It is likely that the 9900KS processor will have a greater TDP than its predecessor 9900K, whose heat dissipation is 95 watts. Here is a comparative table of the characteristics of the top line of Intel processors:
We must remember that Intel is cunning, indicating the TDP values at the level of 95 W, because this figure is valid only for the basic mode, without Turbo. To fully utilize all the capabilities of top-end Intel processors and their secure overclocking, the same i7-8700K and i9-9900K recommend scalping . This procedure, to put it mildly, is not the safest, even if it is performed by an experienced person in such cases. In the process of scalping, there is a risk of damaging the textolite or the processor chip itself.
The exact date of entry into the market and the cost of the new processor is unknown. Considering that Intel does not offer anything fundamentally new to consumers, and the increase in clock frequency in Turbo mode is only 300 MHz per core (or 400 MHz in basic mode, 4.0 GHz per core for 9900KS versus 3.6 GHz for 9900K), then the cost should increase slightly. Now the recommended retail price from the manufacturer for the i9-9900K processor is $ 488-499.
