Intel CORE I5-9600K 3.7 GHZ SKT1151 9MB CACHE BOXED - BX80684I59600K (Components > Processors CPU)

Product Information

Turbo boost frequencies are only achieved under ideal circumstances. However, with adequate cooling, you may be able to maintain speeds near the max boost frequency. Based on our evaluation of using Intel's Core i5-9600K CPU for gaming, you can expect mediocre game performance with a high-performance CPU cooler.

This 6 core processor is excellent it was easy to install in only minutes from unboxing to running. The i5 speed combined with 6 cores makes this a good alternative to the pricier i7 and i9 and not much lost in speed. It is a good high mid solution for gaming and graphic design works great and would buy again. Based on our evaluation, the 13400's 4.60 GHz single-core max turbo boost frequency is excellent for performance overall. You can maintain these frequencies with a high-end cooler. Processors with the support of artificial intelligence ( AI) and machine learning ( ML) can process many calculations, especially audio, image and video processing, much faster than classic processors. Algorithms for ML improve their performance the more data they have collected via software. ML tasks can be processed up to 10,000 times faster than with a classic processor.The processor can use up to 128 GB memory in 2 (Dual Channel) memory channels. The maximum memory bandwidth is 42.7 GB/s. The memory type as well as the amount of memory can greatly affect the speed of the system. If you're only planning to stream shows, use office apps, or browse the internet, you won't need a top-end CPU to get good performance. The most important CPU capability for general app usage is the single-core max turbo boost frequency. You can search our catalog of processors, chipsets, kits, SSDs, server products and more in several ways. Based on our evaluation, the 13400's 6 Performance cores and 4 Efficiency cores allow for good performance overall. Based on our evaluation, the 13400's 4.60 GHz max turbo boost frequency of the Performance cores is excellent for performance overall. P-core turbo boost frequencies can be maintained with a high-end cooler.

This article compares Intel's Core i5-13400 and Core i5-9600K desktop CPUs. We evaluated Intel's Core i5-13400 and Core i5-9600K desktop CPUs to determine which would be better for various use cases. We shaped our testing methodology to focus on each CPU's attributes rather than relying solely on benchmarks.Storage: WD 750 SE 500GB, WD 730 SE 1TB GPU: EVGA RTX 3070 Ti PSU: Corsair SF750 Case: Streacom DA2 As someone who has a 8700k, you're better off just waiting with your current cpu. For gaming you won't see any significant improvement.
