i9 9900K on a ASUS ROG Z370-G (Wi-Fi AC)

[jupiter]

Hey, will my motherboard handle this CPU? I saw that some Z370 Chipset mothers can get hot or they may not even last long.

[Mad Scientist]

If your BIOS is version 1803 or more recent, Yes.

Not hard to search these things on manufacturers sites...

They wont be prone to getting hot or failure if you keep the unit cool, like most CPUs try to keep it around 55C max water, 68C max air with 70C range being fine as its limitation is 100C but you generally dont want to exceed 70C for CPUs.

The cpu should work fine.

The cpu will be just as happy sitting at 90c as 50c with no difference in performance.

Though, if you are blowi g 500 bucks on a new cpu, might as well go for a new mobo as well and sell yours, no one on a budget should even be considering a 9900k.

well everyone has a different budget, your may be 55$ someone else, 110$ and then another 210$ i say run for the 9k and call it a day

You make so little sense, there is no 9k cpu, there is a 9th gen though, but it covers a wide range.

[Mad Scientist]

9k =9xxx. 9900K clearly fits into that.

Anyway, a lot of people forget that there are also sensors for the socket. Running the cpu into 90C often blows the motherboard which tends to damage the cpu.

Cooler is better.
The hotter something gets, the weakest components are likely to burst and ruin your day. Seen too many of those happen because a particular cpu has a 30C higher rating than identical ones. Cpu heat affects the socket and the parts by it.

It's like thinking your gpu is fine at 90C when there's nothing cooling the vrm. You just don't do it.

9900K is fine if your Bios has that update or more recent, but keep the Temps down not all motherboards are designed to sustain unusually high temperatures.

amen brotha tell em

[Monk]

Tell me what? He's wrong. Vrm can take 130-150c on most cases.

It's cores that have their own temperatures within the cpu as a whole and if they breach thatimit the system safely shuts down.

The 9th gen covers nearly a dozen chips and no one refers to them as 9k

your just mad at being cool and having a twist with your persona on things and obviously taking minor topics to a childish proportion without reading what someone who knows post yes you build a great system but others built stuff you will have trouble with man, every human learns everyday you cant stop learning, you just met a few that call em 9k

[tacoshy]

yes and some ppl call the GTX 1070 short 710. that still doesnt make it the right name in no circumstances, but hey the evry same ppl also think that a BIOS flash will enable a RX470 to become a RX580 with 16GB VRAM...

[Monk]

And that is wrong, 2 people calling cats, dogs doesn't turn a cat into a damn dog.

Plus people trying to correct misinformation on these forums so it doesn't cost people money is a pain, especially when it's consistently from a small handful of people.

Now take off that uniform and stop claiming stolen valor.

[Mad Scientist]

Many people refer to many products in many ways. Like x5 cpus gtx 6/7/500/600/900/10 series even means 10xx for manufacturers.

Vrm is fairly weak as a part, they often fail well below your listed Temps due to lack of proper cooling. I've seen enough exploded parts on video cards and meetings associated with such to know that tech sites love to run with higher numbers when that's actually beyond the threshold for failure or high rate of failure. The people that run them at lower temperatures still have H55/P55 and as little as socket 487s that refuse to die other than replacing a few aged capacitors. Even have seen people with the early Gen Nvidia and amd cards never die until they pushed the Temps of the board or gpu too hard.

Number series, yes, x5? No idea, 9k, not a thing.

first of all this topic is about a 9900k system short is (9k) now if you want to consider a 1070 a 710 then you need to be corrected because that has nothing to do with this guys topic and lets not stir from the topics question and source, Yes your MOBO will handle that CPU with medium OC brotha...depending on your thermal and cooler quality

[Monk]

A 9900k is a 9900k or a 9th gen chip, NOT A 9K as that makes zero sense and You were calling a 1070 a 710 ffs.

[tacoshy]

9th Generation ahs so amny CPU's with a K in their name:

i9-9900KS
i9-9900K
i9-9900KF
i9-9980HK
i7-9700K
i7-9700KF
i5-9600K
i5-9600KF
i3-9350KF

either you talk about the Generations as 9th. Gen. Intel or "Coffee Lake" / "Coffee Lake RF" but not about 9K as it could be literally everything. You wont also find no professional that would use the term. The customer wants a 9K -> ok lets give him an i3-9350 KF...
