Review: Great Processor But Can Run Hot Unless Tuned! - Upgraded from a 9900k and had a hotter running PC. Couldn't figure it out at first and found myself checking my AIO, reapplying thermal paste, checking settings, etc. After research I was able to discover that given it a slight undervolt helps. What ended up helping even better and easier was ticking down the performance in the Performance Menu. In those option by simply ticking down the processor to 99% my temps went down to 55 for most of my games from initially running at average 80-85. This tuning comes without a noticeable hit on FPS except while playing "Squad" (a single core use cpu intensive game). With that game I do lose at least 10 fps by having the processor at 99%. This is not that big of a deal as I can easily tick it up to 100% for Squad and just put up with the 75-80 temps! Happy that I can at least play most of my games at a good temp while gaining good performance by this upgrade!
Review: Great CPU - when i upgraded my desktop i decided to go intel core i9 this time. all my previous build was a 6th generation core i7 6700k. it ran fine but it wasnt up to running windows 11. so an upgrade was in order. besides, my old board was starting to fail. i originally bought a 10th generation core i9 10 core but that cpu was junk. there wasnt enough PCI-e Lanes to support my drives and usb devices. this is a limitation of 10th generation CPUs not a limitation on the board. my video card (RTX 3070) took up most of the available PCI-e lanes which took out most of my drives. so i went to the 11th generation i9 8 core instead. very happy with it. it solved all my PCI-e lane issues. i am able to run all my devices and drives. the cpu clocks at 5.3ghz stable i have water cooling installed. i see zero problems with this chip. its fast, its stable im plenty happy with the upgrade. the board is a MSI MEG z590 ACE Gold. i have 64gb DDR4 3200.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this support intel® socket lga1200 for 11th gen intel® core™ processors  support the rog strik z590-a gaming wifi?**
A: Yes, the Intel i9-11900k will fit any lga1200 socket

**Q: What is the best cooler for this cpu that will fit inside an in win c589t.cq350tbl atx mid-tower case, on an asus rog strix z590 motherboard?**
A: You can either build your own 2 fan liquid cool by getting every part separate, or you can do what I did which im quite happy with:
Get a coolermaster ML240L V2. In addition, 2 slim fans because there is not enough clearance above the ram to use the fans that come with the cooler. Instead, I went with 2 Thermalright TL-C12015W-S RGB SLIM 120 FANS (15mm thick). However, the screws that come with the slim fans do not fit the radiator so you will need to buy new screws or do what i did and use those 1cm plastic spacers that i had lying around and use the finger-tight screws that come with the cooler. Hope this helps!

**Q: Will you be able to have this with another GPU, while there already being one present?**
A: I am running the i9-11900K CPU with an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 GPU. Both the CPU and GPU are recognized and utilized.

**Q: Porque un i5 tiene hasta 10 en numero de procesadores y este i9 tiene uno solo. Por favor me pueden explicar eso.**
A: Hola amigo, acabo de entender tu duda. El procesador de hecho tiene 8 núcleos físicos que trabajan como 16 lógicos, existen procesadores como los Ryzen que tienen más de 10 núcleos. Sin embargo lo que hace la diferencia es a que frecuencia puede trabajar como base y como máximo e incluso llevar al límite con Over-Cloaking. Este procesador es de 11va generación y trabaja con una frecuencia base de 3,5 GHz y como máximo a una frecuencia de hasta 5,3 GHz. Entiendo tu duda porque el detalle del artículo de la tabla de amazon está número de procesadores 1, pero ese dato no es el real. Si bajas un poco más puedes encontrar el detalle técnico real del procesador, puedes intentar buscar en la sección (Más información del producto) que está justo abajo de las preguntas. Como comprador puedo certificarte que tiene 8 núcleos / 16 procesadores lógicos y soporta PCIe 4.0 y es compatible completamente con el socket LGA1200

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I9-11900k in Q4 2025
*by J***N on November 27, 2025*

3 years later and I’m still running good, cpu gets HOT. But performs exceptionally well in just about everything still, running DAWS, high refresh video games. Smooth sailing, and quite able to take a beating electrically
