Gigabyte publishes an OC guide for the Intel Core i9 9900K stating that 110ºC cannot be passed

Published a special overclocking guide for the Intel Core i9 9900K, indicating that this processor can reach 110ºC.

Currently we are missing little data to know about the Intel Core i9 9900K processors. We know that it is an eight-core, sixteen-thread processor that has the DIE welded to the IHS, something that allows heat transfer more efficiently and allows it to go up to more than 5.0GHz with overclocking without major problems. Gigabyte has published an overclocking guide for these processors so that no one overdoes it, especially.

Gigabyte publishes a guide to overclocking the Intel Core i9 9900K.

To get the best possible performance from the Intel Core i9 9900K processor, Gigabyte has developed a complete guide to Aorus Z390 motherboards, especially for those who are dedicated to reviews and who have a custom liquid cooling system, which have the better heat dissipation than an All-in-One system.

The guide also establishes the maximum temperature at which the processor can operate, which is 110ºC (TjMAX) due to the fact that this processor has the characteristic of having the DIE and the IHS, which allows a more efficient heat transfer and more support. temperature. It is recommended not to exceed 90ºC at any time.

'As you can see from the latest screenshots, the temperature of the Core i9-9900k is quite high. This is something that we have noticed in almost all processors. For this reason we suggest you use a custom water cooling system and set the TjMAX temperature to 110 ° C '

This guide talks about the fact that all the cores of the Core i9 9900K can reach 5.0GHz with a custom cooling system and operating this processor at a Vcore voltage between 1.3-1.4V. These processors show thermal limits, so much temperature consumption can offer values ​​in the cores that go up to 95-96ºC, leaving a margin up to 110ºC considering the less demanding cooling systems.
