Intel Core i9-9900K Processor Listed on Amazon

By Nathan Kirsch October 1, 2018

It is widely expected that Intel will launch the new Core i9-9900K processor this month and it appears a listing has appeared on Amazon for the CPU. Twitter user @momomo_us posted a screenshot of the packaging this morning and also shared an image claiming that pre-orders begin October 8th, 2018 and reviews will be up when they ship on October 19th, 2018. Silicon Lottery has a landing page for the Intel Core i9-9900K already and has an ETA of October 26th for it.

The Intel Core i9-9900K processor is an 8-core, 16-thread CPU that was expected to be around $500 at launch. The screen capture on Twitter shows the price being $582.50, so it will be interesting to see what the price really is. The listing also shows that it has a 5.0GHz clock speed (likely single-core) and that is has 16MB cache.
