Intel Core i9-10900K to boost up to 5.3 GHz, specifications of 10th Gen Core Comet Lake-S leaked

Update: Right before the story went live we were asked not to share some of the slides, but we are still sharing the information from them.

Original story: It appears that guys over at Informatica Cero leaked the most interesting slides for the Intel CPU market in 2020.

Intel Core i9-10900K/i7-10700K/i5-10600K (K Series)

The most high-end CPU in the Comet Lake-S lineup is the Core i9-10900K CPU with 10 cores and 20 threads. This part is confirmed to be 125W TDP SKU. This processor will feature clocks of 3.7 GHz to 5.2 GHz in boost. The new feature called Velocity Boost will unlock clock speeds up to 5.3 GHz, but only for two SKUs: 10900K and 10900 non-K.

Meanwhile, core i7-10700K is an 8-core and 16-thread CPU with clock speed up to 5.1 GHz, this part does not have Velocity Boost though.

The Core i5-10600K will boost up to 4.8 GHz with a single core. This part is a six-core and 12-thread processor.

Intel Core i9-10900 – i3-10100 (non-K Series)

Only the Core i9-10900 features Velocity Boost of 5.2/4.6 GHz. The Max Turbo Boost 3.0 is also exclusive for two SKUs: 10900 and 10700 (5.1 and 4.8 GHz respectively).

Performance Matters:

• Up to 4.8 GHz All-Core Turbo
• Up to 5.3 / 4.0 GHz Thermal Velocity Boost Singe / All-core Turbo
• Up to 5.2 GHz Intel Turbo Boost Max 3.0
• Up to 10C and 20T
• Up to DDR4-2933 MHz dual-channel
• Enhanced Core & Memory Overclocking
• Active Core Group Tuning
