Rated 5 out of 5 by from Excellent processor Excellent and super fast processor, would highly recommend as the latest and one of the fastest around

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Great CPU However RDR2 AD seems to be a lie at this point Everything was fine when ordering this CPU and works as expected. However don't be swayed by the offer of RDR2 as it currently seems that the key for the game will never be back in stock. i have contacted Intel multiple time with great difficulty to only be told they are working on it and should be back by X date and when the day comes the keys are not back in stock. So am still waiting.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Better than a Ryzen 9 3950x At the time of writing although not the cheap Intel Core i9 9900K is still the best CPU for the price for gaming and most apps. I did consider the new Ryzen but the price of this new AMD CPU is very expensive and it performs poorly in comparison to the i9 9900K for most real word apps and games. The Ryzen has more threads but if I needed a multithreaded CPU I'd probably get a Threadripper CPU but then you are entering the very expensive workstation/server CPU market and I don't need a heavily multithreaded CPU for games and my single user applications. I don't bother with water cooling and use a NH-D15 cooler with a single fan and temperatures even when modestly overclocked are fine and it's stable. I use it with an MSI MEG Z390 ACE which covers most needs.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Great processor but poor value for money I bought this cpu for a workstation. It is very fast and temperatures run fine. However compared to the competition such as the ryzen 9 this cpu is not great. Scan was perfect as always just a shame this cpu is overpriced.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Incredibly fast processor with low temps After much deliberation I decided to take the plunge into ordering an i9 - 9900k if you’re considering buying one of these I’m sure you’ve heard about the high temps they produce. I thought I’d try it out for myself I am currently running a 5.0ghz OC and after multiple stress tests I have hit 66 degrees with a NZXT x62 kraken. While idle the CPU sits at 32 degrees and while gaming it hardally goes above 50 I hope my review gives those of you who are on the fence the final push you need, you won’t be disappointed I’ll be happy to answer any questions you have :)

Rated 2 out of 5 by from very dissapointed I might be one of the few who hasn't won the silicon lotto with this, im running this completely stock on a custom water cooled system, idle temps are higher then most at OC, when playing games im getting temps between 80-95, struggling a lot with thermal throttling, temps seem to spike up even when surfing the net. Never had issues with CPU's before and I was reluctant on buying this due to seeing a few with temp issues but only when OC, I didn't expect the issues ive had :-(. Scan are great as always but this product has not been great for me, Built a great PC but this has let down the whole thing
