https://www.techpowerup.com/246230/top-three-intel-9th-generation-core-parts-detailed Intel is giving finishing touches to its 9th generation Core processor family, which will see the introduction of an 8-core part to the company's LGA115x mainstream desktop (MSDT) platform. Leading the pack is the Core i9-9900K. This chip is endowed with 8 cores, and HyperThreading enabling 16 threads. It features the full 16 MB of shared L3 cache available on the silicon. It also has some stellar clock speeds - 3.60 GHz nominal, with 5.00 GHz maximum Turbo Boost. You get the 5.00 GHz across 1 to 2 cores, 4.80 GHz across 4 cores, 4.70 GHz across 6 to 8 cores. That is still very good in my opinion but it remains to be seen what Intel will decide to charge for these new CPUs. Intel is expected to launch these chips towards the end of Q3-2018.

An i7 with no HyperThreading? Bad move.

Tiers change, they have an i9 now, so i7 could become the new i5. Still perturbed that they skipped 9800K, unless that shows up in X299...
Still, unless the next series starts at 10000K, I see a new nomenclature coming, question is whether a new architecture comes with it. I've seen people pin hopes on Icelake, but it was originally just a refresh of Cannonlake, which was the now-late 10nm shrink of Skylake.
Of course, Intel could reuse codenames for new architectures, they it at least once before: Back in the days of Netburst, Nehalem was thought to become a 10GHz single core, but due in part to Athlon 64, everything changed.

8 physical cores is still an upgrade over 4 physical/8 logical.
But didnt we just have 6 core hyper threaded CPUs under the i7 this last gen? I am unsure of how to compare 6/12 to 8/8.
Im also impressed by the 5ghz 8 core for 95W honestly.

no, 5ghz boost is 2 cores.

i9, i7, or i5; it doesnt matter. Its the specs vs price that matters.

Looks like hyperthreading is an exclusively i9 feature, now. People won't like i7's with a single thread per core, I imagine. Mind you my old i5-2500K is 4/4 and does a great job to this day.

i kinda get why the are doing the new teiring layout, most programs dont scale well above 8 cores so the hyperthreading was sorrta useless in those, and the professional users will go x299 for big multi core stuff, so depending how they price these it may work out better

I'd liked to have seen the i3 4c no HT, the i5 4c/8t the i7 6c/12t and the i9 8c/16t. That would be a nice lineup.

+1. That would have been perfect.

Does anyone know if 6/12 is better then 8/8?

Depends on what you are doing. If you are using rendering software that can leverage all of the threads, it should run a little quicker. If you are just gaming, I dont think there will be much difference.

The sheer lack of PCIE lanes is alarming. WHAT THE $#%#$$# are Intel thinking? Is this some kind of joke? 16 PCIE lanes? Talk about being completely shackled. This is a travesty.

Nobody at intel seriously had a 10ghz part in the pipeline or beyond the imagination stage. Prior to 2005 even less than 4ghz was causing major issue with silicon TDP. Intel reversed course which resulted the core 2 at roughly half the clock speed at the same perf.
