A new video in China shows a Core i5-9600K being benchmarked with a MSI Z390 MEG Godlike motherboard with 16GB of DDR4 memory and a Silver Arrow Extreme cooler from Thermalright. We don't have game benchmarks, but at least we have some Cinebench results both with the processor working with its 3.7 GHz base clock and overcloked to 5.2 GHz. That process was done without problems despite using an air cooler. Sorry but I still think 280 dollars is too high for this CPU. 

AMD Ryzen 9 7950X,  Corsair Mp700 Pro M.2, 64GB Corsair Dominator Titanium DDR5  X670E Steel Legend, MSI RTX 4090 Associate Code: H5U80QBH6BH0AXF. I am NOT an employee of EVGA

    Now this is the cpu Intel should have championed against the 2700X for gaming. The 9600K at 5.2GHz, I don't see the 2700X beating the 9600K at the highest overclock they can get on a 2700X with air cooling.
     
    This will be best gaming cpu for the money. Guess that's why AMD is looking at lowering the price of the 2700X.
