Also consider the extra cost of building a PCIe 4.0 motherboard. Because of higher signal speed, server-grade PCBs are used, more cooling is required, etc.that pricing looks horrible but somehow possible...The 10900K is taking a lot of wattage compared already a lot to 9900k and they added two more cores still in 14nm, so they need to put good vrms into it and good components but anyway the prices are huge, lets see what we get for it...
