It appears that the lineup for Intel’s 10th generation Comet Lake desktop CPUs has been leaked. According to the slide, which appears to be coming straight from Intel, the blue team is preparing twelve CPU models.
Going into more details, these desktop CPUs will be based on the 14nm+++ node and the high-end model will be the Intel Core i9 10900KF. This CPU will feature 10 cores, will support 20 threads via Hyper Threading, will offer a 5.2Ghz single core frequency and 4.6 multi-core frequency via Turbo Boost and will be priced at $499.
The second high-end i9 model, the Intel Core i9-10900F will also feature 10 cores and 20 threads, will have a default base clock of 3.2Ghz, will turbo boost at 5.1Ghz on a single core and at 4.4Ghz on all cores, and will be priced at $449.
Intel will also offer a third i9 model, the Intel Core i9-10800F. Similarly to the other models, the i9-10800F will have 10 cores and 20 threads. However, its default base clock speed will be at 2.7Ghz, its single-core turbo boost will be at 5.0Ghz and its multi-core turbo boost will be at 4.2Ghz. This 10-core CPU will be priced at $409.
What’s also interesting about Intel’s upcoming 10th generation CPUs is that all of them will support Hyper Threading (at least based on the slide). Intel was criticized by a lot for disabling Hyper Threading in specific CPU models in its 9th generation desktop CPUs and for good reason. Thanks to AMD’s competition, though, it appears that the blue team will enable Hyper Threading on all of its CPUs, even on its low-tier Intel Core i3 10100 model.
Those interested can find below all of Intel’s 10th generation Commet Lake CPUs. Kudos to our reader Metal Messiah for bringing this to our attention.

Still, the PC platform won him over consoles. That was mainly due to 3DFX and its iconic dedicated 3D accelerator graphics card, Voodoo 2.
