In no mood to cede mobile performance leadership to AMD and its Ryzen 9 4900HS processor, Intel is readying its new flagship mobile part, the Core i9-10980HK. Based on the 14 nm "Comet Lake-H" silicon, this chip packs an 8-core/16-thread CPU with a maximum boost speed (aka "Thermal Velocity Boost") of 5.30 GHz, while maintaining an aggressive power target of 45 W TDP. This should put the chip's performance somewhere between the desktop Core i7-9700K and the Core i9-9900K, both of which have TDP rated at 95 W, although the chip could perform very close to the latter at gaming, thanks to its 300 MHz higher boost frequency. Intel is expected to launch the 10th generation Core i9 H-series processors on April 2nd, around the same time when NVIDIA launches its mobile GeForce RTX 20 Super series.
 
I am curious about the heat of this processor once it boosts up to 5.3 GHZ
 

looks like the Mobile CPU wars are Heating Up

For anything but workloads that need short bursts of boost speed — or huge laptops with enormously powerful cooling — this chip will be a failure. No hyperbole, no BS. That's how it is, unfortunately.
 
I once compared two Sandybridge era chips in my old Lenovo W520, which at the time was a top of the line workstation laptop. One CPU I tested was the most expensive extreme edition CPU, another was a slower CPU with a lower TDP. I made sure to use Lenovo's best W520 cooler (which was loud and really quite unpleasant). The slower CPU crushed the faster CPU on long workloads because it output much less heat and could maintain its boost longer. Notebookcheck has replicated this with much newer generations of Intel CPUs time and again.
 
Faster and hotter is most definitely not always better if you want maximum sustained performance.

Cool GTX

Literally!
 

wanted to say this too :D
The temperatures will get hazardous for users, imagine using it your lap while it boosts

AMD is the way. Yay😼
