Very good processor, no stability issues for me, overkill for gaming, I use it for data processing and simulations. Requires an excellent cooling system.
Turning off the heating in the machine room is very pleasant in winter, I recommend it!
This processor is a monster of power! The bottleneck no longer exists! Whether I'm playing Cyberpunk or competitive 1440p games, I never see my 3080Ti fall below 100% usage.
Machine with i9-13900k + NZXT KRAKEN ELITE 360.
Used for a lot of virtualisation, see PJ.
Temperature level between 25 and 30 degrees for all virtual machines running.
it does the job well, doesn't get too hot and I don't know what else to add to make 100 characters. thanks
I have three screens, including a 34" 144hz ultrawide QHD+, and all my games run close to the highest settings (Starfield, Forza Motorsport, WoW for me). Coupled with a 4080.
I'd recommend buying quickly, as Arrow Lake S (3nm) is due for release at the end of 2024.
it performs like a dream! be careful when choosing your watercooling though! and your power supply :)
It's a bit hot but well equipped it's a SpaceX rocket ;) You'll never get over this proco!
As I only change my PC every 4-5 years, I like to leave with a top configuration in terms of performance. So I'm not disappointed with this i9 13900K which can swallow anything without any difficulty. If you are essentially a gamer, I'm not sure it fully justifies the price difference compared to the 13600K as the performance difference will be minimal (2-3%). You have to be aware that to take full advantage of it, you will have to invest in one of the best AIOs available or even opt for custom watercooling. Even with an Asus Ryuo III and its powerful (but noisy) 8th generation pump, it is impossible for me to avoid throttling of the hottest core(s) under demanding benchmarks. For this reason I stick to the boost function at 5.8Ghz without trying to overclock it further, as the processor already acts as an additional heat sink. I'm taking off one star for the power consumption and heat output, which for me reach the limits of what is acceptable for a processor.
A nuclear bomb this gaming cpu, music.
Beware, it heats up quite a bit with a 5.8 ghz oc so you need a good watercooling!
