I just saw a video testing out the i9 version and under sustained load it thermal throttled big time down to 2.2 GHz on average. This could be a big deal for video rendering or large imports/exports in Lightroom. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dx8J125s4cg
But he does offer the helpful hint that if you put it in a freezer it runs much faster. Maybe there is a good reason to get a smart refrigerator after all ;)
