November 28, 20187 yr It's already "launched" https://ark.intel.com/products/189126/Intel-Core-i9-9980XE-Extreme-Edition-Processor-24-75M-Cache-up-to-4-50-GHz- Where are the results? Curious minds want to know Is it any good?
November 29, 20187 yr From all the testing I’ve seen on YouTube from the likes of der8auer and Steve from Gamers Nexus, it’s just a refresh of 7980xe with solder that can’t be delidded without killing the chip, so...yeah.
November 30, 20187 yr @Gunslinger Odds are it isn't. It isn't significantly, if any, better binned. Also more expensive than the 7980xe to manually bin, so less worth it to binners. The core deltas are much worse on air, which likely means the same for LN2. It can't safely be delidded and ran direct die safely. Edited December 1, 20187 yr by AutisticChris
