L1 cache is also the fastest but holds the least amount of data, with each following level decreasing in speed but increasing in capacity.)
- L3 Cache: 20 megabytes (Cache memory, also called CPU memory, is random-access memory (RAM) that a computer microprocessor can access more quickly than it can access regular RAM. This memory is typically integrated directly with the CPU chip or placed on a separate chip that has a separate bus interconnect with the CPU.)

- User documentation
A: Sold out within minutes. I was able to click add to cart, but by the time I filled out all my info and clicked the final button, it sold out. Even if the pandemic didn't happen, this would have sold out, but it sold out even faster because of this.
Q: Has this come out yet or is it actually just sold out?
A: Yes, this processor has come out, but it sold out really fast due to the fact that it outperforms the i9 9900k by over 30% and they are the exact same price. 9900k: https://www.newegg.com/core-i9-9th-gen-intel-core-i9-9900k/p/N82E16819117957?Description=i9%209900k&cm_re=i9_9900k-_-19-117-957-_-Product&quicklink=true 10900k: https://www.newegg.com/intel-core-i9-10900k-core-i9-10th-gen/p/N82E16819118122?Description=i9%2010900k&cm_re=i9_10900k-_-19-118-122-_-Product&quicklink=true The one downside to this processor is that it only supports Z490 Motherboards so if you previously had an i9 9900k, you would have to get a new motherboard because chances are, you have a Z390. Have a nice day.
Q: can you place an order that will be fulfilled when stock arrives? and when is stock anticipated?
A: I was able to order mines from bestbuy.com on 8/18 at 1513. Just received the I9 10900K. Can't wait to build it.
A: That didn't work for me Maty, I went to the store to do the same you did, but the guy who I talked to at BestBuy said that if it shows as sold out for me it is sold out for the store as well.
Q: is this item comes with the cooler or fan?
A: Hi CoolDude, the Intel Core I9-10900K does not come with fan cooling solution. Even though the new Intel 10th Generation processors have a new pin configuration and use the new LGA1200 socket it is compatible with any cpu fan that fits the LGA1151 socket as the form factors are the same. Thank you for choosing Intel.
A: A few days ago it was showing as "available"...I kept adding it to my cart and going through the checkout process, and then at the last step it would say "sold out", Ugh! I ended up giving up. I figured it was a bug in their inventory and it wasn't actually available. I'm ready to upgrade my 3 year old 7700k. Intel, take my money already!
Q: Will this processor be compatible with Asus Z490-P
A: This processor is an lga 1200 10th gen. According to the internet it should work.
Q: are the i78000K the same dimensions as a i910900, or do I have to upgrade my motherboard
A: Hello, I think you will need to upgrade your motherboard and ram.
