    No
    No
    No
    No

    I will not lie, I`ve already told them the box is still sealed.

    But I got a case #, so we`re at least getting somewhere.

    So far, the only thing Intel will do is replace it if it dies, as I expected they would say.

    But he/she asked me to give them more time, so holding on here

    Hi,
    Intel has no stock a few have reported they give refunds instead if they don't have stock.

    Let`s hope I never have to find out

    My only option now, If I really really wanted a 10900X, would be to sell the 9900X and my 7900X and purchase a 10900X or higher. (that would be the smartest move)

    But after looking at the reviews and benchmarks I could actually find, buying a 10900X seemed pointless. So the 9900X went back in the drawer until I get the urge to install it, and maybe put the Thermaltake 280 AIO in there too.

    Hi,
    7900x is probably a better chip delidded
    It's a high binned 78..x series chip.

    But either way now you'd have to contend with Intel's new pricing with both 79-9900x which got cut in half
    Good you got a discount on the 9900x.
