This is what 1st gen Coffee Lake should have originally been but they had to rush out those 6 cores to compete with AMD Ryzen ^_^

Soooo. that was very short and sweet, I feel like the workstation stuff was the only surprise and no indication of price or launch dates on the 9900k etc.
wtf Intel?
Also they made claims like "faster in x amount of the top games than competitors" but showed no charts or data whatsoever.
I understand marketing.. hell I work in marketing but this is just waffle with no substance!

It's a bit odd that they stated "1st mainstream 8 core 16 thread CPU" completely discounting Ryzen 1st and 2nd gen, I hope people pick up on that and call them out for it.

Hahahahahahahahahaha Intel have lost it, They are in such a rush to get their product out after getting scared with Ryzens popularity that they can't even manage a simple press event :intelwar:

I believe they mean their own 1st mainstream 8/16 CPU. Since, correct me if I'm wrong, untill now, anything higher than 4 or 6 cores have been in the upper level, the more expensive enthusiast platforms, ie X99 etc.
That first clip with "demanding game like counter strike" and the laugh scene from Spider-Man, just made the whole video for me :lol: ... It's like Dice said above, this is so hilarious to see Intel literally ting their pants from the extremet popularity of AMD's Ryzen, that they rush out of a product and completely make fun of themselves up there. Wow, I would feel so awkward being one of them.
