Works good as long as you do the correct bios update for your motherboard

So this is weird to say this but i .ay just make the move permanently from AMD to Intel this i9 probably one of the best ive had. I normally use AMD cause you can get roughlythe same experience for a cheaper price but even AMD knows it so they started raising their prices. This purchase comes down to what side of the street you wana walk on, either AMD or Intel... either way your good to go

Very Fast CPU, However Mak Sure you have A good Heatsink & Fan. It does run hot When Activity is 50%+ / 100c + thats 200f
at idle Temperature is normal around 32c to 40c / 90f to 100f
under average use CPU activity is around 50%
I don't OVERCLOCK.

Think I got lucky and avoided getting a defective one because this thing has been amazing so far. I’ve had it for over half a year now and it’s beast. Runs everything no issues. Even star Citizen lol. Getting 60FPS in that game which is very impressive.

Upgraded from the 13900k ( had to rma and they refunded me as they were out of stock). The 14900k seems to be a bit more efficient and slightly cooler at the same processes as the 13900k. That being said its still incredibly difficult to cool. You will need a very good liquid cooling solution. As long as you are good with that this thing is a monster.

Extreme performance, stable 6 GHZ on all performance cores and with the proper cooling beats Ryzen 7000 in efficiency and decimates in everything performance. You will need a new motherboard for the next generation Intel 15th generation, but Intels performance path with the 14900k makes this well worth any price. Rock solid stability, effortlessly overclocks with AI, as future proof as you could ever buy.

It is a very good cpu that works wonders for all applications you throw at it. The only issue is that it runs a little hotter as many reviews state. I am using an ek nucleus 360, which has kept its temperature down to about 25-30 on idle. It is also a good thing to have a good AIO as air coolers are no longer capable of handling a CPU that runs this hot.b

This can get really heated up , i am talking about 212*F . You would definetly need to go for a AIO cooler if you are getting this one. Dont get me wrong , this is a really powerful system but gets really heated up. To deal with the temps , undervolting can be another solution

Pretty solid CPU. I worried about overheating due to complaints, but I'm getting 30-34 degrees Celsius while its idle and the hottest it's gotten was 38 while under load. I've got a 360mm AIO so that probably helps. If it's causing you issues, it's most likely because you need to tweak the settings on your motherboard.
