gotta love all this.. intel publicly, "don't worry the 9900k will work on z370".... intel behind closed doors, "fuck that, make sure they can only buy it bundled with a z390"...
Newegg just sent me a txt saying my 9900k combo shipped!!! WHOOOOOOOOO!!!! Be here wendsday! Thank god I cancelled my pre order with amazon, i'd still be waiting. I have to say, this is the first time amazon shafted me
A full blown highend loop will surely be in order brother. My 9900k will be on its own loop consisting of a EK 420 60mm thick rad in push/pull using D5 pump with a Heatkiller IV Pro all copper block.... And my TitanXP is on its own loop as well using all same hardware.. I know the 9900k runs hot but other then adding a chiller in line, a loop cant get really any more highend then this, so we'll see how temps go. I think i have a rather realistic goal of 5GHz all core OC hopfully using less then 1.3v.. Ill find out wendsday when the cpu gets here, so please cross your fingers ..I don't blame Amazon, they can only sell what Intel ships them, I am sure they would love to have all those orders shipped already as well. NE seems to have the same issue as Amazon, it's just that NE reserved some for combo deals only. I am just glad I was able to get an order in somewhere and get it delivered.
Now I am looking at doing a all new cooling setup. The H220-X was not meant for a 220W+ load for sure, did pretty good on the 6700k, but it is past its ability once I start running 5GHz all cores 1.3v.

if you have the space, might be interested in this pump/res combo (have to add a d5 as it mounts to bottom of res and makes a nice 1 piece pump/res combo) Unit is completely silent and 250mm tube res holds a nice amount of water. of course they sell a smaller 150mm version too. Im using 2 of these, 1 for each loop. http://www.performance-pcs.com/alphacool-eisbecher-d5-250mm-acetal.htmlI have not had time to mess with mine, but I did a quick 1.3V and 5GHz, and everything was fine outside of temps, in a few minutes it was in the 90's, but I run slower fans, as noise is a big factor for me. I will probably finally be doing a custom loop, dual 280's for my case, debating on pump and res setup, as again, noise is a big factor for me, if I can find a good option with the dual 280's I should be able to keep noise levels where I am at or lower.
This 9900k is half price of what I paid for my 5960x. It has also half the Memory Channels (2 vs 4), less Cache (16 vs 20), Less PCI Express Lanes (16 vs 40). I may have to wait for 10nm before I upgrade.
and yet 9900k blows that 5960x out of the water.
yes, if you click on a few of the "Combo's" that do say "out of stock" once clicked, some say "add to cart" so a little bug i guess! so if youre still in need of a 9900k, even tho some say out of stock, click on it, and it really isnt.Ordered since it was first available on Amazon, still not ship yet.
Newegg has been in stock on the other hand....
Newegg had some in stock earlier today (just the CPU not a combo) but they probably went fast.yes, if you click on a few of the "Combo's" that do say "out of stock" once clicked, some say "add to cart" so a little bug i guess! so if youre still in need of a 9900k, even tho some say out of stock, click on it, and it really isnt.
I thought the same thing, lol.Does the box have RGB?
got mine today... very early testing looks promising for a 5GHz all core @ 1.27v so far with temps that are shitty but hottest core in mid 70's using very highend water
^^ What AVX offset? Run some Prime...
Or you can sell it to me.I got a stinker. Couldn't get 5.1 w/ 0 AVX offset stable with my cooling solution (decent loop, new EK Velocity block). Probably just stick with this. Not like it isn't fast enough. 1.35v + LLC7 on the Maximus XI Hero.
good to see amazon is finally starting to ship these out...I got a stinker. Couldn't get 5.1 w/ 0 AVX offset stable with my cooling solution (decent loop, new EK Velocity block). Probably just stick with this. Not like it isn't fast enough. 1.35v + LLC7 on the Maximus XI Hero.
Give me a couple weeks, probably get bored with itOr you can sell it to me.
Well if I dont get one by them I will surely take it! This was supposed to be a Bday gift for myself and its already 2 weeks passed my Bday...lame lolGive me a couple weeks, probably get bored with it
