Intel's 10th-gen Core processors: i5-10600 with 6 cores, 12 threads and i3-10300 with 4 cores, 8 threads
Confirmed configurations for Intel's 10th-gen Core processors: the i5-10600 (6 cores/12 threads) and i3-10300 (4 cores/8 threads) for LGA 1200.
As you likely know, the first quarter of 2020 is set to introduce Comet Lake-S, the fourth iteration of the Skylake architecture. Rumors suggest it will bring Intel's first 10-core, 20-thread chip to the mainstream LGA 1200 platform. But let's be real, with AMD already pushing multi-core solutions, the public won't be easily impressed by these specs.
But Intel made a somewhat unexpected move here, one quite uncharacteristic for the company. Older leaks had suggested that the 10th generation of Core processors would include Core i3 chips with 4 cores and 8 threads, and Core i5 models with 6 cores and 12 threads. Now, that information has received further confirmation.
To start, the 8-thread Core i3-10300 chip has appeared in the UserBenchmark database. This intel comes from the reputable insider TUM_APISAK on their Twitter account:

According to the leak, the processor operates at a 3700MHz base frequency, boosting up to 4200MHz automatically.
A second, equally important leak came from user _rogame on Twitter. The screenshot they posted reveals the Intel Core i5-10600 processor's frequencies: 3300MHz stock and a maximum turbo boost of 4500MHz. Unfortunately, neither its TDP nor cache size was specified.

Intel Celeron G5900T | 2/2 | 3.0 GHz | 3.0 GHz | 2 MB | 35W | Unknown |
Beyond the new CPUs, we're also expecting a completely refreshed LGA 1200 platform (Socket H5) and a new 400-series chipset lineup. Intel's strategy suggests this platform should stick around for a couple of years before its successor arrives.
⤢ ВІДКРИТИCurrently, there's no definitive word on whether existing LGA 115x cooling systems will be compatible with LGA 1200. However, rumors suggest older coolers should fit the new platform without issues.
