Intel's i9-11900KF reportedly runs very hot - 98 degrees on a 360mm CLC

The slightest mishap with your AIO and it could be reaching boiling point!

imagine your fans stop spinning and you dont notice :O
 
I wouldn't expect anything less when running an AVX512 workload, That is intense, What about when running cinebench or normal gaming ? That is what matters, Not AVX512, I bet the temps will be much lower.

But if you think about it, if the competitor (5900X for example) in AVX512 hits 80C with a Noctua D15, that means the 5900X's cinebench/gaming numbers will also be significantly lower than the 11900K. AVX512 is not realistic, but if the temperatures are absurdly high there, they'll still be high for realistic loads. While if the 5900X which outperforms hits high numbers (not absurdly high) in AVX512, it'll hit low numbers for realistic use cases. It doesn't scale linearly as you decrease the load, but you get what I'm saying. You take the worst possible scenario and scale it down, which will still mean the 11900K is an inefficient CPU.
 
I still think its better to wait for the reviews. As extreme as he is Debauer often takes it to the next level by delidding these chips to show how much temp drop we can possibly achieve.

Couple that with a better wide range of tests and it can give us a good glimpse of the temperatures we can expect.

At the moment though, consider me intrigued regardless of the temps.
 
lol.... even with avx512 this is a bit high using a 360mm AIO.


but it comes as no surprise.

intel has to quench out every last bit of performance to be competitive.

yeah.... but what percentage of buyers do that?


that is a bit like comparing a VW Golf to a porsche after tuning the heck out of the VW. :p


it may make the VW look a bit better but it is no fair comparison.

and doesn´t matter for 99.999% of the VW golf customers.

Except the Porsche have VW engines so can end up being the same. Also tuning has nothing to do with looks. Its performance. :P

Anyways, you do realise that Rock It actually provide delidding tools. There are far more doing this than you think. And since its a personal opinion, im not really interested in what others plan to do with their CPU. I was commenting based on what I would like to see as I always delid mine.
 
I thought Intel had moved to soldering the IHS ? Wouldn't that effect the viability of delidding (or is it a non-issue really) ?

They do solder them. However, they use cheaper solder. It has been shown that replacing the solder with Liquid tim improved temps, but for most,its not the worth the risk given what you pay for these chips.
