Intel has been working hard on its upcoming desktop CPUs based on 10nm process, though they have been successful in implementing the new Icelake architecture in laptops, it seems that the desktop and server end CPUs have given Intel some huge trouble.
So, again Intel will be repeating its tik-tok method on its age-old 14nm Skylake architecture and implement the 10th Gen Comet Lake CPUs to counter AMD’s superior 7nm based Ryzen 3000 CPUs. Intel has no other option but repeating its same architecture for the fifth consecutive generation.
Slated for a launch in the first half of 2020, we expect Intel to launch the new CPUs at very cheap rates, with higher clock speeds and hyper-threading enabled across all of its new CPUs. Obviously it will not be efficient and modern as its Ice Lake CPUs are but the new Comet Lake will surely be much more affordable with relatively higher performance.
To counter the dipping market of Intel, the blue team has no other option except to sell their CPUs at cheaper prices to attract more consumers as they can. It is surprising to see Intel lower the prices of their HEDT processors by 50% and sell their best budget CPUs like Core i3-9100F and Core i5-9400F at ultra-low prices.
The shortage of manufacturing the 10nm nodes has forced Intel to make the Comet Lake CPUs both for laptops and desktop lineups. Intel has no other option but follows its same old strategy: take the Skylake core, higher the TDP and see how much higher clock speeds can be achieved and then eventually stuff as many cores as the 14nm node allows.
We’ve got some leaks about the upcoming CPUs by Intel which has a lot of similarity to its 9th Gen brothers, albeit the fact that all of them will feature hyper-threading and come with higher clocks. Ryzen CPUs and APUs have been game-changing for AMD, the Red team has made huge progress, leaving behind Intel in the long run, so a new generation of CPUs by Intel was just a matter of time.
The 10th Gen Intel Core i3-10100 will be a quad-core CPU with multi-threading enabled. It has a base clock speed of 3.6GHa and a boost clock speed somewhat higher than the Core i3-9100F at around 4.3 to 4.4GHz. Higher clock speeds at single-core enhance the gaming performance significantly, a segment where Intel still dominates the market.
This budget CPU features 6MB L3 Cache and the performance is impressive as well. It performances close to the 4 core 8 threaded 7th Gen Core i7 which is great for a low-budget CPU to attain and eventually be a great gaming CPU in future.
The new Intel Core i5-10600K is a 6 core CPU that will hyper-threading and higher frequency uplift along with an increased L3 cache size of 12MB. This will be an overclockable budget CPU that will eventually be a value-for-money one, also the performance seems decent enough.
Now what will make these CPUs interesting enough to a Ryzen-minded market is the pricing, until and unless it can lure its consumers somehow, they have a lot of Ryzen options. Maybe Intel cannot cope with AMD in the performance race until their 10nm Sunny cove cores arrive but till then they need to offer something compelling to its fans.
