Excuse my ignorance as this is all new to me and if this is not the right place to post, apologies and feel free to remove.
I recently purchased a bundle from here, consisting of an i9 9900k and the Aorus Master. First time round my system died and would no longer Post, only overclock was XMP profile on the RAM.
So sent it all back and technicians said the CPU had gone and will send replacement CPU and return my MOBO and Ram.
Replacements have been running fine, i've not applied XMP or any overclock to the CPU. I just ran a round of BF5 with HWMonitor running. And this is where I may come across as dumb! But what shouted out to me was the Max on the Core clocks running at 4.9GHz I thought the boost would be a lot lower than this at stock timings?
Anyway just a bit nervous I may have to RMA it again and something on my motherboard is frying my CPU.
Any help and guidance would be greatly appreciated.
