Intel announced on Thursday, April 30, the 10th-generation Comet Lake desktop family, which includes no less than Core i3 to Core i9 processors. In addition to 8 Pentium Gold and Celeron, with the strongest model in the new family will be the Core i9-10900K which comes with 10 cores and 20 threads up to 5.3GHz.
The new Comet Lake S desktop family joins the Comet Lake U / Y and Comet Lake H processors, which in fact completes the 9th-generation Intel transition to the ninth generation, with the current processor family replacing the ninth-generation processors.
The biggest change the new processor series brings is Intel’s Hyperthreading multi-function technology, which will be available for the first time in all CPU series starting with the Core i3 and above, which is expected to significantly increase new generation performance over the previous generation. The new processors will support 2.5GbE wired internet connection through the Intel Ethernet I225 controller and fast WiFi 6 connection with the Intel Wi-Fi 6 AX201 controller.

Intel emphasizes the new generation of overclocking capabilities with better control over processor capabilities, with Core i9 processors coming with Thermal Velocity Boost technology for an additional speed of up to 5.3GHz. The new Core i desktop processors come with faster DDR4-2933 memory support for the Core i7 and Core i9 processors, compared to the DDR4-2666 in the other models.

All new Comet Lake processors will be available for sale starting in May.
While Intel’s big news is the Core i9 processors that come first with 10 cores and 20 capillaries, the most significant change occurs in the Core i3 processor series, which is particularly powerful in the current 4-core and 8 capillary generations and can easily be compared to processors The Core i5 or later releases.
One “problem” that comes with the new Comet Lake processors is their socket issue, with Intel moving from the old LGA 1151 to the LGA 1200, which would require users looking to use the new processors to move to a new motherboard that comes with the chipset of the Series Intel’s 400.
