    Great score @OldMike65 what is the highest speed you can get out of your 9900k? I am really struggling and I have had 2 now!
    5.2 is about it for mine Paul, and its only about 85% stable at 5.2 Also takes a lot of voltage to maintain a 5.2
    5.1 is 100% stable, still takes a lot of voltage to run thou. I'm thinking of installing a EK water block at some point.

    That's not bad. I would be happy with 5.1. I am not even stable at 5 dam it! What kind of voltage are you using for 5.1 if you don't mind me asking? I know for sure my cooling is not good enough for any high voltage. I may have to think about some other kind of cooling at some point.

    Right now I have to run it higher than I like Paul. But its rock solid stable. I can go to 5.2 and do some benching too, but have to really crank up my voltage for that.

    Thanks Mike. Yeah with my current cooling I can't get away with running it that high which is probably why I can only just about run 5Ghz.

    Hey Mike, do you have the Intel Protection Plan bought for the chip? I buy it for mine all the time. Great peace of mind. No questions asked warranty really. I have used it twice over the years.

    For me I don't care about voltage, I care about temps. The amt of time you are pushing the chip at high voltage is really very minimal in the big scheme of things. Controlling temp will let you get the higher clocks imho.

    No Dave I didn't even know they had a Intel Protection Plan that I could buy. Think its too late now to look into it.
    I agree to a point on voltage, but Temps are the main thing to watch I agree. There are some chips, that run with less voltage at same speed as I run thou. I didn't win the lottery in that area. Also thinking about delidding this chip.....which would void any Intel warranty anyhow.

    That IPP is a great feature for guys that like to push their chip. Another thing is that both times I availed myself of the plan I got awesome clocking chips back from Intel.

    They even let you accept a charge against your CC and they will ship the new chip immediately. When they get back the dead chip they just drop the charge.

    Yea, I bought one for my 8700K. Never had to use it though or maybe yet.

    Well I bought my chip in Nov of 2018 (9900K) I don't think I can buy their warranty now Steve, can't ask them right now as they are down for maintenance

    Have you looked into the delidding process for the 9900k Mike? It looks a lot harder than the 8700k due to the 9900k being soldered. You have to sand the solder down with wet and dry sandpaper etc. Looks a bit much to do for my liking.
