Bet you it's a damn site more than £370 when it goes on sale in the good old (rip off) UK!
Re: Intel Core i9-9900K listed on Amazon US for $582.50
I wonder what the tdp is...
Re: Intel Core i9-9900K listed on Amazon US for $582.50
I know it's wishful thinking, but I hope this comes in around 5% better than the AMD part and just *nobody* buys it.

From a few leaks that I've seen, it's going to be a 95W part. I guess they're able to go as high as 105W to keep on speaking terms with AMDs 2700X.

Well, aside from $583 being more like £447, are you VAT registered?
As I make it more like £447 + VAT, that is £536 at least minimum.

I thought the swear filter was just reflecting my thoughts on the packaging... maybe they've used recycled plastic? It would be even more appropriate then :)

Turbo clocks of up to 5.0GHz
That's as fast as my i5-2500k!
Re: Intel Core i9-9900K listed on Amazon US for $582.50
I'm liking the idea that the number of sides on the box should represent the number of cores.
You'd not sell a lot of single core processors though.
I think we should have Tesseract shaped boxes for quad core CPUs.

Give me 10 reasons why I would by the 9900k instead of 2700X ... and please I am on a tight budget to build a video editing/photography/animation/ G.design rig

The only reason to buy it is if you're a gamer who wants the highest framerates and has a lot of money to waste.
For a content creator...no idea why you would pick Intel over AMD.

At that price I think you could compare 9900k to Threadripper.
Intel are still best at single threaded tasks and you just mentioned things that like multi-core. Just get the 2700X.
