Everyone can manipulate that number to anything you want by changing the base clock. Intel could sell the 9900K with a 25 W TDP by saying the base clock is 1200 MHz, AMD could do the same. (I mean the 95 W TDP for the 9900K is already a meme.) It&amp;#x27;s just gonna be exactly the same CPU as the 3900X, just a slightly worse binned version.</text></comment>
