A 3DMark outcomes database entry confirmed that the 10th era Core i5 desktop processor will certainly characteristic HyperThreading (HTT). Based on the 14 nm “Comet Lake” silicon, the next-gen Core i5 processor shall be 6-core/12-thread. Besides HTT, the processors will characteristic larger clock-speeds than their ninth era counterparts. In the 3DMark validation, a Core i5-10600 processor is referenced, that includes 6 cores and 12 logical processors. The chip has a nominal clock-speed of three.30 GHz in its identify string (a 200 MHz increment over the i5-9600), though its Turbo Boost frequency hasn’t been detected correctly by SystemInfo.
It’s attainable that the utmost Turbo Boost shall be an identical 100-200 MHz acquire over the 4.60 GHz of the i5-9600. It stays to be seen what L3 cache quantity Intel provides these chips. The 6-core/12-thread Core i7-8700 has 12 MB, or an extra 512 KB L3 slice per core, to deal with the HTT overhead, though there have been exceptions to this rule within the firm’s cell processor lineup. Intel is anticipated to debut its 10th era Core “Comet Lake” processor collection alongside the Z490 Express chipset in April 2020.
