Intel Core i9 9900K processor review 4

Posted by: Hilbert Hagedoorn on: 10/19/2018 02:00 PM [ 314 comment(s) ]

In this review we take the new flagship mainstream processor for a test-drive, meet the premium Coffee Lake-S eight-core processor that has been discussed so abundantly lately. This little beast has eight cores, sixteen threads and gets turbo bins that reach 5.0 GHz. Pair it with a nice Z390 motherboard and you will be looking at mighty fine performance and a downright excellent gaming processor.

excellent review....

I really like your final words ...>"I am liking that Core i5 9600K just for what you can achieve with it (gaming wise)"

Grrrrrrr......you just give me a big upgrade itch that I can't scratch off!...:p

Well, 9900k is a weird CPU as far as I can tell.

Even in 720p benchmarks doesn't make it shine (pure CPU cap).
However Intel finally created a consumer CPU that doesn't lose to Ryzen in raw power. And overclock make the gap further.
So it could a good CPU for 144fps+ gaming AND content producing. We'll see how it gonna age.

9900k looks ok, but pricing.. oh well.. geizhaltz has them listed from 600€+, avg more around 700-750€.. lol good luck with that.


Like I said few times, Icelake or ryzen 2 for me. Maybe I'm leaning towards Icelake more because of ddr5, I know ryzen2 will still be ddr4.
