Product Overview

Intel Core i9-10900 is a high-end desktop PC microprocessor in Intel's 10th-gen Core, Comet Lake family. There is also a lower-powered variant, i9-10900T, that trades some performance for efficiency.
Like other i9 chips in the Comet Lake lineup, the Core i9-10900 comes with 10 cores and 20 threads and a single-core maximum frequency of 5.2GHz. It sports the same Intel UHD Graphics 630 integrated GPU found in other Comet Lake processors.
The low-power Core i9-10900T shares with the base chip the same core and thread count as well as technical features. It is clocked, however, roughly 20% lower. As a tradeoff, it has a TDP of 35W, as do other Comet Lake T-series processors. It can also run at a 25W, TDP-down mode, though the clock speed is further capped.
Alongside the i9-10900, Intel also markets the Core i9-10900F. The "F" designation means the i9-10900F does not come with the integrated graphics. Intel debuted this concept in 2019 in order to salvage chips with defective GPUs that are otherwise perfect. As a result, the i9-10900F shares with the i9-10900 all specifications except for the difference in integrated graphics. For desktop users with discrete graphics installed, the F-series chip may be an interesting option, thanks to its lower MSRP.
As a third refinement based on the 14nm Skylake process, the Comet Lake desktop processors offer an increase in core count, clock speed, and cache capacity over its predecessor. All Comet Lake Core processors feature hyperthreading, allowing two threads to run on every core.
