The F-series consists of regular SKUs that have the iGPUs disabled due to production line malfunctions, so they practically are Intel's equivalent to AMD's desktop Ryzen CPUs. Their CPU performance should be identical to non-F models, but each iGPU-less processor is expected to be at least US$25 cheaper than the non-F counterparts.

25$ for igpu? see guys, how valuable igpus are? half of the silicon, tenth of the price.
anyway, if not intel's name and a monopoly with the ability to send these chips to every corner of the planet, these new chips would be DOA.
new socket and its worse than 3 y.o. am4.
real world methodology only, a week ago https://www.ixbt.com/platform/amd-ryzen-7-3700x-3800x-ryzen-9-3900x-3950x-test.html (in russian)
cant wait for the same test with comet
i3-10100 (4 cores) and i9-10900 (10 Cores) both have the same 65W TDP.
Clearly, these numbers don't mean anything at this point. There is no way to know real TDP without benchmarks.
Wheres the pricing of the Fuckedup model?
