The first information we had about the i9-9900T was that Intel was striving to improve the power consumption of the 35W chip, however it appears that the company has improved the performance of the i9-9900T prior to its final launch.
Intel Core i9-9900T improves its frequencies to 2.1 GHz base and 4.4 GHz boost
Initial processor specifications were expected to provide a base clock of 1.70 GHz (less than the 3.60 GHz of the original i9-9900K), with a Turbo Boost frequency of 1 ~ 2 cores up to 3.80 GHz. However, Geekbench's performance results show a different story, much more appealing to users: Intel managed to maintain the 35W TDP target, but base clocks have increased to 2.1 GHz and much better 4.4 Boost clock. GHz.
This is good news, as performance will be better than initially expected. This effort is likely to do with the success of AMD's Ryzen 3000 series, and trying to make this model much more competitive.

The 8 cores, 16 threads, 16 MB of cache and the Intel UHD 630 iGPU are kept from the original part. Test results comparing it to an Intel i9-9900KS processor show an expected drop in performance compared to the faster processor. The T chip got about 5567 single-core points and 28893 multi-core performance points.
The Core i9-9900T has a suggested price of $ 439 and is expected to ship in the coming months.
