Intel - Core i9-11900K 11th Generation - 8 Core - 16 Thread - 3.5 to 5.3 GHz - LGA1200 - Unlocked Desktop Processor - Grey/Black/Gold
- Key Specs
- Processor Socket: Socket LGA 1200 (Type of pin configuration that connects a CPU to a computer’s motherboard.)
- PCI Express Version: PCI Express 4.0
- CPU Base Clock Frequency: 3.5 gigahertz (Actual central processing unit (CPU) speed may vary by device configuration and design. The average rate at which the processor is able to execute tasks under normal operating conditions as asserted by the manufacturer.)
- CPU Boost Clock Frequency: 5.1 gigahertz (Actual central processing unit (CPU) speed may vary by device configuration and design. The maximum rate at which the processor is able to execute tasks, typically only used for a short period of time as needed. This rate may temporarily boost the processor's performance, but may result in overheating, shutdown, or damage to equipment if sustained.)

- Unlocked Processor: true
- Memory
- Maximum Memory Supported: 128 gigabytes
- Memory Type Supported: DDR4
- Number of Memory Channels Supported: 2
- Cache Level: L3 (The cache stores data that the CPU needs to access quickly in order to complete tasks. Each level is ranked according to priority of access; Level 1 (L1) cache stores data that the CPU needs to access first. L1 cache is also the fastest but holds the least amount of data, with each following level decreasing in speed but increasing in capacity.)
- L3 Cache: 16 megabytes (Cache memory, also called CPU memory, is random-access memory (RAM) that a computer microprocessor can access more quickly than it can access regular RAM. This memory is typically integrated directly with the CPU chip or placed on a separate chip that has a separate bus interconnect with the CPU.)

- User documentation
Q: Will the i9-11900k be available in stores or online only on release 3/30?
A: Just like the AMD 5000 series, NVIDIA 3000 series, next gen consoles, etc. it's very safe to assume this product will only launch online and won't be available in stores until stock is plentiful.
A: I just happend to be on the website on 03/29 at 10pm and saw the yellow "add to cart" and jumped on it.
Q: What time on 03/30/21 is the i9 dropping?
A: According to Intel, at 9 AM EDT
Q: When will this be in stock?
A: Best Buy has not announced an intention to offer this chip for pre-order and has an availability date for 3/30. You can safely assume it will be available on 3/30.
Q: When will the Intel 11900K CPU be in stock?
A: Most likely a couple weeks but max 2 months
A: Yes. The LGA1200 11th Gen i9 processor will fit your LGA1200 Motherboard. The 12th Gen and up will not.
A: undefined
Q: Is this compatible with the B560M DS3H Motherboard? If not which core would you recommend?
A: Yes it is because that motherboard is 11th and 12th compatible
