    We've been scared for this, but the Core i9 9900K that was announced yesterday might be in short supply during its launch on the 19th. High demand at 14nm and low volume are going to boost up prices....

    Ordered 9900k for 5699 nok @ komplett.no :)

    Compared to other hardware, this is ~ 520$

    Not to bad.

    Msi gaming x 1080 is 5790 nok

    Msi tri x 2080ti is 13500 Nok

    Yes.

    Look @ the other prizes on hardware for comparing. From $ to nok, it's like $ x 11 for norwegian kroner :)

    But what abnormal is going to buy a cpu of 650 euros to play a games only? If you need to work on editing videos or photos is to buy the 2700X and motherboard for about 500 euros and still have a few euros. And at the end of the day it gives to play equally.

    Who is buying a 60 000k $ car, when you can buy a 20 00k $ car? It does the same job, in the end of the day... Drive from A to B...

    Hi guys ,

    In France , we can find 9900k@559€
    but the 9700k@549€.

    Obviously an error on the price on one of the two processor !
    (I'd prefer the error on 9700k but honestly I m afraid the 9900k@559€ is not the good price :( )

    But here the possible difference would be 2 or 3 fps. And pay so much money and then play 720P or 1080 at low resolution to see these 2 or 3fps ... Regarding the car will have many more differences of certainty.

    You'll see a lot more than 2-3fps at those resolution, stop making things up.

    What if you have to use a 7700K or a 8700K @ 5.0Ghz? What's the difference? Do not blame me but there are not so many games that make use of so many cores, so the cost of 650 € is lost if you get something equal for 300 euros and if it is to produce a TR. If for fps it is better to invest in a 2080 Ti or a used 1080ti.

    There are so many better choices for cpus available right now. I doubt there will ever be a great supply of this cpus.
    We are just feeding the monster buying these, especially at the $$.

    Exactly! i would say "Never underestimate the marketing and the brand prestige", all in all these CPUs will be very popular, even with better platform options out there

    I was on about the 2-3fps difference at 720p or 1080p.

    Now available for preorder in Sweden: i9-9900K 6299kr (600€). i7-9700K 4999kr (480€). i5-9600K 3449kr (335€).

    I was expecting them to be much cheaper, but no... looks like I'm going to have to pass this generation as well.
