SeekerIntel Core i9-9900KF
Intel’s Core i9-9900KF lacks integrated graphics, but includes all of the other features you get from Core i9-9900K, including eight cores, high frequencies, and a solder-based thermal interface material for improving cooling performance. Like its counterpart, the Core i9-9990KF is the fastest mainstream processor on the market. But unless it lands on shelves at a significant discount, you're better off waiting for the -9900K to enjoy better availability.
