  • Great CPU! Make sure your mobo and bios are all up to date!
Style: CPU Only
The irony is that I was only looking to replace my gaming controller but then I fell down the rabbit hole and the next thing I know I had spent an obscene amount of money doing and extensive upgrade to my trusty old rig. Either way the plan was to deck out my current build to its max so I can coast through the next few generations till prices adjust. The motherboard I had picked for my budget build had plenty of room for upgrades and I decided I would max it out so there would be no option than to build a new PC from scratch the next time I am forced to upgrade. This CPU wasn't a smooth ride initially. Until recently I was suffering from random reboots without any explanations or error notices (no BSODs either). After much testing and re-inserting/replacing hardware it came down to the motherboard being faulty. Since having replaced it with an Aorus Wifi Pro, this baby sings and is capable putting out better performance than the previous mobo withot any tinkering in the bios. The i5-9400f was a pretty capable cpu so I wasn't sure what sort of improvement to expect gaming wise. Its mostly GPU dependent. But turning on my current game (Yakuza 0) the frame rates were a lot smoother than previous. Its almost distracting how smooth the edges of the screen move as you run by places. Given that this CPU is easily capable of overclocking and the new mobo provides a decent headroom for that I am currently set for games till 8k becomes a standard thing. All in all slapping this thing in with a good cooler, I was considering an AIO but I figure looking into the best of the air coolers possible and it turns out the Noctua NH-U12A was a great fit for my needs. ... show more

  • They are work horses.
Style: CPU Only
I bought two of these CPU's for system builds. They worked flawlessly in 3 different systems. Clocking them at 5Ghz is easy. But you will need a good cooling fan or a water-cooled system if you want them to last.

  • No regrets
Style: CPU Only
Bought as a upgrade for my custom built and had no issues with it. Surprised it's holding value real well since I made purchase.

  • Wonderful Perfomance
Style: CPU Only
I bought this A while ago, but when this was the newest CPU this had the best performance for the money. In 2023 this is still a great CPU.

  • Great OC despite R0 Stepping
Style: CPU Only
Well I received the correct product, in the same packaging shown (not the large hexagon packaging that came with the initial release), this helped lower shipping costs which I appreciated! Despite feedback that R0 stepping 9900K's were not binned as well as their "KS" variant - I got this core to clock in at 5Ghz all core at 1.284v. Worked well with my Samsung B-Die RAM as well (@3600Mhz 16-16-16-36 timing). I got it to pass a 5.1Ghz all core OC, but the voltage required was immense at 1.38v which I wasn't comfortable trying to daily, maybe I need more time to tweak it but given the minimal gain it would be mostly for showing off than true performance difference. CPU Related Components: Motherboard: Z390 Aorus Ultra GSkill Trident Z Neo: 2x16Gb 3600Mhz 16-16-16-36 RAM Cooling: EKWB Monoblock, 240mm and 360mm SE Rads and some other stuff (see pic of RGB barf) Temps: Idle mid 20's, close to ambient. Under CPU Synthetic load mid to high 60's, when GPU is loaded as well (gaming) it will climb to mid 70's but that is because I've side mounted my GPU and my case is known for cooking GPU's anyway. R23 Score all core - 13240 @ 5Ghz R15 Score all core - 2134 (2153 @ 5.1Ghz, so not a huge bump at the expense of longevity hence not bothering trying to stabilise it) Given CPU prices lately I'm extremely happy with the purchase! ... show more

  • I9 9900k what more can I say?
Style: CPU Only
It’s a powerful, fast, multi threading capable processor that will be like rocket fuel for your jet. Please be sure to update your bios prior to swapping unit so that you don’t have to reinstall and do it after the fact. Once super easy bios update is completed you can have it swapped in mere minutes. With a water cooler it took me 20 minutes taking my time assuring everything is clean. Don’t forget to get yourself a tube of Artic thermal paste so it’s done right and don’t use too much. Greta CPU. ... show more

  • Works great so far, excellent chip for gaming.
Style: CPU Only
A great upgrade coming from an i7 4790k, and so far temps are manageable with a 120mm aio at stock clocks. Usually stays around 65-70c while playing cities Skylines with the highest temp I've seen so far being a short peak of 80c, I.E. less than a second before dropping back down, Usually happens when loading a large minecraft world oddly enough. But I also have my fan curves set to come in late because I like to keep the sound down. ... show more

  • (not yet installed) I did get a legit i9-9900k
Style: CPU Only
One thing I am always worried about, bying comp stuff on amazon, is getting fake stuff. I saw a few 1 starts of people complaining about getting fake/used cpu's, so it made this purchase feel like that much mroe of a gambal. What I got was real (at least if it is fake, they went all out to make sure every single detail, down to each pin, matched perfectly. So I'm sure it's real). The package was not wrapped, but was sealed using intel tape (pretty typical from what I've seen before). The box was slightly damaged, but nothing that would effect the cpu, and nothing that can't be explained by a long shelf-like pre-sale. It is 2022, and I don't think intel is still making 9900's. So even if it is used, so long as it preforms well enough that I can't tell, I'll take it. Will update when installed tomorrow. ... show more
