Intel literally can't even solder a heatsink correctly. Der8auer did the same testing on Ryzen and found zero difference between their solder and liquid metal.
>84ºC delidded at 1.25V Holy fucking housefire. What the fuck were they thinking? This thing can't be OC'd at all without throttling. There's no way you can put much more than 1.3V through that CPU without breaking 100ºC. Even if it could OC to 5.2GHz+, no way that's fucking viable long term, you'll kill the chip in under a year. What a fucking shitshow Intel, what the fuck.

Liquid metal will always be better than solder. What a shitty thread and uninformed post.
How about you watch the vid where he delided a soldered AMD chip and got better temps with liquid metal
>How about you watch the vid where he delided a soldered AMD chip and got better temps with liquid metal Literally fake news you fucking shill. He said in his Ryzen delidding video that there's absolutely no point in doing it because it provides no benefit to temperatures whatsoever.
this is intels last chance to stay on "top" and by god are they trying hard. Yeah nice job you created an extremely expensive furnace that just barely even beats your own last gen products, This shit wont fly for long.

>delidding isn't enough anymore >you actually have to grind the die down
>This thing can't be OC'd at all without throttling The best part is that the stock clock temps wouldn't even be considered fine for an OC. Those chips will die quickly
Landon Fisher
Remember Pentium 4? They did the exact same shit back then. After that started failing, they started bribing OEMs and smearing AMD from behind the scenes. That's the next step. That is, if it's not already happening.
Jason Bell
Damn you shills are fast
Joseph Stewart
Unless you buy AMD. Then you don't have to do jack, but until 7nm are also limited to

You can't compare that as Intel uses a different count and structure of metal layers within the chip.
But yeah, new 9xxx core series are a scorching shitfest.
William Thompson
To be honest, you could buy the 2700X and then buy the 7nm flagship when it launches next year for less than what the 9900K is selling for right now. Intel really shot themselves in the foot with this launch, the only thing it accomplishes is making AMD look good.
Andrew Perez
I'm already on a 1700 and I'm waiting for just that. 1700 is better in every way than my old Ivy Bridge, '3700' will be bonkers if the clockspeed rumors are true.
Leo Anderson
>It's not fair to compare them since Intel fabs theirs badly.
Wyatt Russell
I'm on a 1600 myself and will probably do the same. My Asus X370-A Pro should do just fine as long as it is updated, which it probably will. If Zen2 can OC to 4.5GHz or higher, along with the rumors of 13% IPC improvement, we're looking at AMD taking the crown from Intel in every field. Can't wait for next year.

I'd rather have the internet and utility bills payed than have an intel CPU
