Pros: No issues out of box, does exactly what I purchased it for, processing games faster. I don’t run my processor turbo’d, that’s just me however even if I did it wouldn’t make much of a difference since I’m only using maybe 55% of the processor running games such as Modern Warfare, as well as Microsoft flight simulator(which is the hardest game graphically to run). So all in all if your looking for some great speed, I highly recommend it.
Cons: No cons. I haven’t ran into any issues with it. I
Overall Review: 10/10 or 5/5 eggs you choose. Even with the 10th gens our. I’d still take the i9. Save some money, plus you don’t need a 10gen in order to use a 3000 series gpu.
Overall Review: I would recommend.
Pros:
- Still one of the fastest gaming CPUs out there
- Excellent multicore performance
- Highly Overclockable
- Hyperthreading
Cons:
- Can be difficult to cool in some situations
- All-around value proposition not quite as good as its competitors (you know who they are).
Overall Review:
I had been using a 9600K on a good MSI MPG board for the last year and a half or so, and saw the 9900k was on sale a couple days ago, so I decided to pull the trigger and swap it in and replace the 9600K, as the 9600K with its lack of hyperthreading is already becoming saturated in modern games. It was a good move. Some things you just can't quantify with numbers and graphs. While the 9600K and 9900K theoretically offer similar performance in many games, the 9900K feels more consistent & snappy in games and for everyday general use on the desktop.
Much has been said about what a challenge the 9900K can be to cool properly, and this is mostly true if you plan to aggressively overclock it and if you push it at or near its limits in applications. But what I found is that my 9900K is actually easier to cool than my 9600K was in the same tasks because the 9900K isn't nearly as stressed and saturated in modern games as the 9600k was, which always seemed to be running at anywhere from 60 to 90% of its limits in demanding games (such as AC Odyssey), and so it always ran hot. Most modern games don't push the 9900K all that hard in comparison, and so in many instances, it ends up running cooler than its 9th-gen I7 and I5 counterparts. All in all, I'm happy I upgraded. The 9900K is a great CPU so long as you have a decent cooler to go with it.

Pros: Very fast! Sure blows my i7's away!
Cons: No cons
Overall Review: Fast, low power. Faster than my6 i7's, probably not as fast as a 10th gen i9. Don't really care, it runs sweet!
