A good product, I advise you to try it.

I want to make it clear that we are discussing the 9900K processor because AliExpress reviews can often be ambiguous regarding which processors are being discussed. Pros: 1) Capable of producing. a significant improvement over my old 6700K, which I upgraded to in order to facilitate the editing and processing of 4K video in Premiere. Adobe software thrives when running on strong cores, and the 9900K handles it without a hitch. There is currently no other CPU that is just superior to this one in this aspect. As a direct consequence of this, games are distinct from one another. The FPS is demonstrably superior. In addition, the 9900K maintains the frametime shelf flawlessly, in contrast to the 6700K, which dropped it even when a 720p stream was running in parallel and a number of applications were running in the background. This already has a merit of 8/16, up from 4/8, at a score that is even higher than the previous i7 IPC. 2) An effective controller for the memory (KP). On Samsung B-Die chips, a standard peer-to-peer 2x8GB kit, which runs at 3200MHz at CL14, is able to run at 4400MHz at CL17 without encountering any issues. This is contingent, however, on the availability of an appropriate motherboard. Not bad. The advantages come to an end here: 1) The temperature of the processor is rising. When you do not save on the mat. board and do not overclock the memory, nothing is nearly as terrifying as it might otherwise be. We use a Maximus APEX that has powerful VRMs that are capable of maintaining the minimum voltage without surges, and we overclock the cores to 5GHz+. Under these conditions, the temperatures will fluctuate around 89 degrees when we put it through stress tests, but they will be closer to 60 degrees when we play games (Results of the Noctua NH-U14S cooler). On the other hand, this results in a significant underestimation of the performance. So, we are increasing the speed of the memory, and we ask that you please. a temperature of over 100 degrees for the duration of the same LinPack are offered. If you combine this with the addition of a low-cost board that inaccurately estimates the VCore, the temperatures will rise much further. One more minus is a natural consequence of this, and more especially, the stringent requirements placed on the CPU in relation to the quality of the motherboards, case ventilation, and cooler/LSS quality. 2) I was taken aback by the fact that streaming does not have all its advantages. This was an unwelcome discovery. 720p can be pulled without any issues, but full HD does not always work. It is no longer possible to stream comfortably in full high definition at 60 frames per second using a capacity of 8/16 with some games such as Witcher 3, PUBG, or Quake Champions. In a nutshell, a robust CPU that maintained its position at the forefront of its market for an entire year. All of this is because Intel is trying to respond to a competitor that has the same amount of cores, but what I want is more cores.

Pros
  • Performance per core, the amount of the cache, performance across many threads, the factory clocks, and the memory controller.
Cons
  • Heat dissipation and a quick decline in the product's significance.
