Early benchmarks have started appearing for the Intel Core i9 9900KS processor, what’s set to be the ‘world’s fastest gaming CPU’ when it gets launched this month. A chip has apparently been sold way ahead of launch in the Czech Republic, and l33t Redditor, FR33_L35T3R, has been busy benchmarking the new special edition Coffee Lake silicon and indulging in a little light amateur overclocking. That’s the last time I’m going to write out that alpha-numeric nightmare of a name, so I’m just going to refer to them as ‘Lester’ and we’ll all be happier. Anyways, Lester has managed to push his i9 9900KS beyond even the stock 5GHz base clock to deliver an all-core overclock of some 5.2GHz. Though if the Cinebench R20 score Lester has posted is to be believed then the performance is arguably a little disappointing. At the promised 5.2GHz overclock the figures that have been posted are only around 8% higher than we’ve been getting with our Core i9 9900K sample knocking around the 4.7GHz mark all-core.
