In a leaked slide Intel puts Core i9-10900K 30% higher than Core i9-9900K in SPECint_rate_base2006_IC16.0 benchmark.

Intel Core i9-10900K 2% to 30% faster than Core i9-9900K

A picture published originally by ITHome and shared by Tom’s Hardware demonstrates the performance of Intel’s upcoming 10-core and 20-thread Comet Lake-S CPU known as Core i9-10900K against Coffee Lake-R Core i9-9900K.

Both CPUs were reportedly tested with all security patches available on 4th November 2019. In benchmark such as Cinebench R15, the 10900K is up to 26% faster than 9900K. Based on all these results, the CPU is on average 13% faster than the current-gen CPU.

The number of leaks suggests that the 10th Gen Core series are very close. In fact, Intel announced a press conference for January 6th. We might be hearing more about Core i9-10900K on that date.
