Because the ssd holds the drivers for the cpu, its somehow linked.
Honestly I don't know but I'm making popcorn.

The Mobo and BIOS hold the most crucial information for the CPU though.

You can't even use it if your MOBO isn't properly updated to the correct BIOS for a 10th generation card after all..

And wtf is a 10th gen card???

iX-10XXXX right now limited to HEDT cards, but soon i7-10700K comes out and that's a 10th gen architecture too.

Hmm a card? That would be 10th gen intel cpus. Please say what you mean and know wtf you're talking about or just don't bother in a hardware forum.

pffff, card, CPU, same thing.

Nope, not even close.
And what is this about a bios update?
Explain that please.

Many so uneducated should just stay out of forums where they feel the need to toss around terms within topics they know nothing about.

Not being harsh or pointing fingers. Just speaking truth is all. Please think first as well as even an once of research before posting would be nice to avoid further confusions towards users who are simply asking questions and expect good solid results from people who know.

if you have an old x299 motherboard, you can't use a 10th generation chip without first updating your BIOS.

Using anything X299 for gaming is pure silliness.

Better off using X570 + Ryzen 3700X or better.

riiiight, and that's why Intel's HEDT chips perform better than threadrippers at gaming even with no overclock, right? And once they're overclocked Ryzen's can't even get anywhere near. X299 is great for gaming, and you need it in order to use Intel's automatic overclocker too.

we've come full circle

indeed we have, 9 pages latter and most everyone has told you the same thing, go AMD.

In the end you will get 95% or better of the same gaming performance, assuming you are not GPU limited in your titles...

You will also get *way* better everything else vs x299/i9....

There is a reason the profession vid title calls the chip dead on arrival, its a trash release for an outdated chipset intel is trying to revive b/c they are scrambling to be competitive against the onslaught of progression in CPU design AMD has brought to bear in the past 3 CPU generations.

If you still want to go x299/i9 "for gaming" then no one here can help you...

on the bottom of a page you can change it to 15-30-50, 50 is best post count per page, we're only 3 pages in... It may be DOA for heavy workload but it honestly, overclocked, looks better for gaming than the other options, you can get quite high single core performance of around 5.1GHz on all cores as well using IPM and good cooling.

no matter what has been said in the comments, i will always go intel over amd.

as for the OP's question.. depends on what your using the cpu for, if its anything other than gaming then get the 10900x, if its for gaming then get the 9900k, its a very simply answer.

you dont need 10 core 20 thread cpu for gaming and honestly you dont need 8 cores 16 threads either.

4 core 8 threads or a 6 core 12 threads is standard for gaming atm, anything higher is made for high work loads, editing, ect...

so if your doing one or the other than choose the one with the least/more, if your doing both then choose one to balance the load.

always do your research, check benchmarks and reviews, always balance and match your hardware, never buy something that will make other bought hardware be a bottleneck.
