Core 9000 series

I'm just looking around at 8700k temps and I see people hit as high as 80oc. The 9900k is not much different.
I think these 9900k temps reaction are just a little bit of a way to laugh at Intel for the price of the CPU. Maybe makes people feel better doing that.

I remember the temps 'issue' with the Fermi 480, I was worried until I got mine and it was absolutely much ado about nothing.

The meme's are funny even if they are not accurate.
 
To be honest these bum releases are really starting to dissapoint... First Nvidias 20xx range and now this. Neither are getting my money. But no point me buying AMD either as I won't see gains in games.
 
LOL You need a bigger case.. ;)

To be fair they are for commercial workstation use so overkill cooling is needed.

Do these support ECC RAM though?? I honestly think with the AMD 7NM and Intel 10NM CPUs out next year with higher IPC cores,even if peak clockspeed goes down a bit,these are going to look a bit meh,as the new nodes should mean moar cores too.
 
80 degrees at stock speed with a huge AIO is good!?!?! :rolleyes::rolleyes::eek::eek:

realize if you know about the platform you know they get hot. 5ghz isnt slow is it its near the absolute max on normal cooling. so thats why its hot. also gaming isnt that strenous heat wise. so a 5ghz chip at 80c. is normal. most chips will be at this heat and more overclocked. so cause this is a high stock frequency just look at it like a ocd normal chip. the heat isnt out of the normal.

If stock speeds are sending temps high there is a problem. With a 360 rad temps are rubbish

Oh I agree.. I am not advocating these CPUs and honestly I currently support AMDs products, Just reporting my testing results and experience.

They need to moan about something. The fact it’s about where it should be when looking at a 8700k gets in the way of a good whinge.
 
Some are running fine. most are not.

He is saying it is fine with a AIO water cooler with a 40CM long radiator. Umm,for a CPU with a small 177MM2 die,ie,its smaller than a Ryzen 7(just under 200MM2 but that includes the chipset too).

This tells me,AMD has probably spaced out the cores,etc to try and keep temperatures in check. Intel to save on die space has bunched everything close together,and effectively overclocked the CPU past what it is comfortable at.

I think this reminds of the P4 Emergency Edition in some ways. It makes me wonder whether AMD will release their own Emergency Edition Ryzen at 140W TDP or something.

Then we can have heat wars!! :p

AIO water cooler makers rejoice for Christmas come early!!

5ghz is not stock, 5ghz is boost.

Granted I would have expected lower especially with a 360 rad, but I'm reading and listening to the review conclusions and no-one is saying this is hot. I would have thought that would be mentioned.

People are reacting to the delid and the issue of it noting being the best sTIM.
 

So you need to delid a CPU with solder now?? Sorry,but Intel is much bigger than AMD,and they still can't engineer a thermal interface solution which needs no intervention by a third party to improve??

They seem to even unable to include a decent stock cooler with this,that AMD does, so its £500 to £600 plus an expensive cooler.

I honestly hope AMD does not release a 2800X,and join Intel in the ludicrous wars. It might actually do more damage than good methinks!

Well,I suppose being the best knows no boundaries,LOL! :D

They would have to include Noctua. But now it's clear why PT chose this cooler instead of cheaper one for their testing.

You dont need to This is enough to run 5.1 on 8 cores at 1.4 volts... So whats the point ??
