Sigh.. everyone(AMD, NVidia, Samsung etc) seem to have no problem making 7nm CPUs and GPUs, but our friends at Intel are still stuck with 14nm technology from the bronze age..
At this stage I don't care about upcoming 11th gen Intel processors(we only just got the 10th gen) or 5nm AMD Ryzen 4000 series etc. I just want Intel to at least give us some kind upgrade for gaming processor.
I got i7 10700K recently, and overall I'm happy with the performance/price.. but it's not really any better than i9 9900KS or 9900K processors I had in past. Although I still prefer 10700K over 9900KS cos it seem overclock slightly better, also run bit cooler, and I like the Z490 BIOS over Z390 mobo etc but the differences are so small it's not even worth mentioning.
So I think Intel should really make a new 10th gen desktop processor, i9 10900PG "Pro Gamer" edition processor with ~5.1-5.2GHz all core boost clock speed.

I think everyone with 10700K/10900K can easily run 5.1GHz on all cores thanks to new improved thicker IHS on 10th gen Intel processors, so doing it with only 8 cores should be easy(probably easier than 9900KS).
Would you pick 10900PG over 10700K and 10900K?
