Leaked results of Intel i7-9700k shows life without HyperThreadsIntel's i7 will no longer support HyperThreading. Here's what that looks like.
Intel (and subsequently our beloved Macs) have been stuck in 14nm hell for quite sometime now. Even worse, the roadmap for 14nm chips has been extended for another few years until Intel starts to get its act together to get back the technical roadblocks limiting 7nm production.
14nm is still where it's at for Intel

Final comments
14nm is still where it's at for Intel
Until 7nm chips drop, Intel has decided to keep on refining 14nm chips with the next Coffee Lakes having the familiar i3 (budget), i5 (mid-range) and i7 (high-end) lineups. However, for the latest iteration, a new, even higher tier series has been slated called i9.
Where previously, the i7 series of chips supported HyperThreading, now only the i9 will have that distinction. Each tier will have more cores over the previous generation, however.
Another desktop tier
For example last...
