Intel announced a new version of the Core i9 processor for LGA 1155 socket systems in anticipation of its planned press conference at Computex 2019 on Tuesday, May 28. This is the Core i9-9900KS model, which offers a stable 5 GHz clock frequency for all cores for the first time when 100% of their potential is occupied.
The default clock frequency is 4 GHz, with a maximum 5 GHz Turbo clock that remains constant even when all 8 cores are used simultaneously. This processor shares the remaining technical features already on the market since last autumn with the Core i9-9900 K model and is actually based on the same silicon component.
Intel achieved a higher frequency of the clock simply by performing a binning, i.e. a selection of core capable of operating stably according to the new specifications. Lack of information on this CPU's TDP, which we don't know is equal to or higher than that of the Core i9-9900 K, let alone the cost expected. This information is likely to be made available by Intel during the next few days, at the time of Computex 2019's official opening.
This CPU continues to integrate a GPU from the Intel UHD630 family, but we believe it is likely that it will continue to be used in conjunction with a discrete NVIDIA or AMD GPU given the cost and technical features. The increase in the Turbo clock frequency, equal to 300 MHz compared to the Core i9-9900 K model, should enable us to achieve a maximum quantified performance increase on paper. Both Core i9 CPUs go up to 5 GHz of clock in a single thread, so no significant differences should arise for such scenarios.
