    Processor is worth the money spent. Definitely make sure to set proper limiters based on spec on your motherboard as most manufacturers are not enabling power restrictions so there becomes a lot of variability in performance which results in more heat generation than needed. With proper limiters you’ll see temps 10-20 degrees lower than most reviews I’ve read through before purchasing. Currently fan cooling it and staying below 85c.

    I changed back to the 13900K because it was more stable and reliable then the 14900 series.131900k is quicker, more stable operation. Good solid processor the, and reliable is the I9 13900k. Can't go wrong with it.

    A trade off of heat/power usage for performance

    Even for menial tasks this CPU gets hot and uses a lot of power. If you will just be browsing and occasionally gaming there are better options. It gives similar performance to other CPUs for most tasks that use much less wattage. Though in the end it does end up beating them in some (not all) heavy processing like in Cyberpunk or other rendering tasks.

    I have a 420mm AIO for this thing and it still runs hot. Then i got a contact frame from thermal grizzly and thermalright and the temps are better now. If you have sufficient cooling you can get around 5.6-5.7 ghz all core and around 6 ghz on 1-4 core ratio.

    Got this on sale, and it is a beast of a CPU. Your PC will need sufficient air flow and cooling, this thing runs hot. Be careful with your overclock settings. Pair it with some DDR5 RAM and you'll be cruising.

    If you dont know good about pc dont even get this cpu is mot for you, you have to limit tdp for not to overheat since motherboard has it as automatically and when i ran a cinnebench temperature hit 100c asap so you need to know enough to get this cpu as it’s powerful

    At this point in time, this is the pinnacle of CPU existence. I elected to get the K versus the KS to save a few dollars at the cost of a few GHZ of speed. You would never notice unless you were using a benchmark prog.

    The Intel Core i9 13000k is the ultimate and best on the market. There isnt a close 2nd. The Raptor lake i9 put even the Adler lake i9 to shame. This truely is a future build chip. It wont be easily out dated soon.

    This is currently one of the best CPUs on the market, just be sure you know that you're gonna want liquid cooling, and even then it runs hot. It's a fairly common experience for this thing to be at 90+ celsius under load.
