Note that 5.1 GHz is the maximum turbofrequency for a single core, and all 10 cores together will obviously not accelerate so significantly. It was also previously reported that the Core i9-10900K will receive support for Turbo Boost Max 3.0 and Thermal Velocity Boost (TVB) technologies, thanks to which the maximum frequencies for one core will be 5.2 and 5.3 GHz, respectively.It is also worth recalling that the combination of high frequencies, a large number of cores and not the most “fresh” 14-nm process technology will obviously not have the best effect on the energy consumption of the flagship Core i9-10900K. According to one of the previous rumors, the novelty will consume more than 300 watts in acceleration. This brings this Intel processor to the level of the 32-core AMD Ryzen Threadripper 3970X, but, unfortunately, by no means in terms of performance.
Pretty sure the 9900k already pushes more than 300watts when you're at full bore and maximising your clocks.
