Customer Ratings & Reviews

Please keep in mind, if you're plans are to utilize this cpu in a sff build; make sure you've done your reaearch. Heat dissipation of your AIO/cooling loop is vital to sufficiently cool this cpu.

Great, fast, runs pretty warm but not too bad, couldn’t get the 14th gen to work without motherboards or power supplies blowing up so had to settle for this

Top notch speeds and flexibility, if you can manage the heat. This will get hot, so get a large cooler if you go with this!

Most powerful processor for gaming, handles anything you throw at it like a champ. MW2 coming from a 12900K went up around 20-40 FPS.

Paired this with a z790 and 4090. Extremely fast and doesn’t get hot if you’re just gaming.

Super fast cpu, overclockable and average normal temps with corsair water cooling.

It's an I9, whay more needs said? Runs hot, super fast, premium price, perfect for solitaire

Overclocking is super easy and the processor is very fast, games run with ease

Runs very fast. Runs a bit hot. Have a great cooling solution. Preferably, a 360mm liquid cooling radiator.

I got this as an upgrade from an i7 and it is significantly more fast and clean

excelente , is expesive, but is great items and grant game pice

This thing is insaaaanely fast! Runs warm, so make sure you have a good AIO, zero complaints, would def recommend 10/10

I doubt anyone running anything but a synthetic workload will ever even come close to touching all this cpu can do. Its just unreal. Make sure you can cool it though it gets very hot at medium to high loads. Z690 kingpin motherboard gave me a heck of a time with the bios update to be compatible with raptor lake. Little buyer beware there but EVGA fourums got me sorted out with an experimental bios.

Not everyday you treat yourself. This i9 is a beast. Also requires a beast of cooling system.

I for the life of me couldn't figure out my pc problem and when I took it in they had some trouble at first but by the time everything was said and done they had found and fixed my issue with amazing speed. Can't recommend geek squad to enough people but the Destin location has by far been my best experience.

It's amazing... but amazingly hot as well. It does everything I need flawlessly. The only issue I have is 3D rendering. It hits 100 degrees Celsius and bottlenecks. Fortunately, that is with in the specs and my motherboard handles it exactly as it's supposed to. I lowered the temp limit even lower just to be safe. My watercooler just cant keep up with it when rendering, but it handles everything else flawlessly.

Very fast great for video production/ rendering fast for gaming. Runs hot make sure you have good cooling

Best cpu I ever had by FARRR. It’s super fast and gives me a gaming advantage

Have had no issues - I've been updating bios for latest microcode and it's been working fine. I do underclock mine (it's running at a constant ~50% load daily) and that has been working fine as well.
