Intel S 9Th Gen Coffee Lake Refresh Detailed Unlocked Core I9 And Core I7 Octa Core Processors Incoming

Earlier this week it was revealed that Intel was planning to launch its 9th Gen processors on October 1 and now detailed specifications of the new CPUs have surfaced online. According to a recent report from Videocardz, Intel will launch three SKUs of the 9th Gen chips, including the Core i9-9900K, the Core i7-9700K, and the Core i5-9600K. Image: Videocardz

As of now, it isn’t clear if the six-core Core i5-9600K will also be using a soldered IHS design, because the documents only refer to the 8 core processors. It’s expected that the new unlocked chips will be able to reach frequencies of up to 5.5GHz, which is a significant jump in performance over last gen chips. Image: Videocardz

As of now, there’s no word from the company on the pricing but more information is expected by next month, along with the official announcement.
