Intel's New Processors Core i9 Are Built For The High-Powered Future of PCs

In recent year, the rollout of desktop processors has felt a bit stale. you generally know what 're going to get: a Little more power, a Little more efficiency , And while Intel's latest update doesn't reinvent the chip, it does provide obscene horsepower  at a time when that's increasingly all that matters.

The Core-X series ticks off the usual performance gains, with Intel claiming up to 10 precent faster multi-threaded and 15 precent single-thread performance over it's predecessor. But the focus falls the top -end, and desktop chip so powerful that intel carved out a new brand name for it: the Core i9,


Uncommon Core 

The rebranding might sound like marketing hype, but it's not -or at least not entirely. Intel's Core i9 is the first consumer desktop processor to cram 18 cores and 36 threads unto a single piece of silicon, a feat that enable the kind of full-throttle task-jiggling that a world full 4k video and virtual reality demands.

The more cores and threads a single CPU contains, the ore dedicated tasks it can manage simultaneously without sacrificing performance. Is an 18-core, 36- thread processor overkill for most people? But for the right applications, it could be a lifesaver. 

"When it comes to people who are doing any type of video editing, this is like a dream come true," says Patrick Moorhead, industry analyst and founder of Moor Insights & Strange. "This is a Big deal."

video isn't the only case for intel's $1.700 monster truck CPU. compiling code and running intensive virtual reality experience could use the boost. And the real benefit goes to those who need tj navigate several interrelated task at once, like live-streaming video games.

"streaming to twitch is no light task," Says Moorhead."not only are you playing the game,your're talking two to four threads and recording that video and broadcasting it out on the internet. And then if you're at the same time chatting with your friends, that's probably one extra thread."

The new Core X Line should also have some trickle-down benifits for those not in need of ludicrous speed. Intel also upgraded its Turbo Boost tech, which now picks the tow top-performing core for single-threaded or light- threaded world load- think gaming or basic office applications-to give even the entry- leave Core X products some pick-up.

Still, the high-end horsepower is the real draw, and it offers more than just bragging rights or edge-case. Leading at the high end of consumer PCs matters because eventually, that's the only one end that will be left.
