Hi,
Yes this maybe a lazy question and I probably need to do my homework but I have a test tomorrow and I need to know a decent answer to tell a friend of mine. I'm mostly interested in knowing the TOP cpu when it comes to mainstream desktop or HEDT platforms. I'm coming from i7 7700K kaby lake, and want the next big thing. I can see that the i9 is coming (i9 9900k?) which is going to have a soldered IHS (No need for delidding)...that is good news actually. I can also see that AMD released their 2990WX and 2950X or whatever and they got nice reviews. I think they are workstation cpus. Will intel release cpus with comparable number of cores? (with HT enabled of course). I actually don't mind switching to AMD if they have the performance crown currently. Sorry this is a very hasty post. Me and one of my friends want to talk about building a box for bragging rights that is.
Thanks
