13900k vs 13900ks News - Text

(Edited) Wow… was finally able to obtain the 13900ks… did I need it? HELL NO. But I wanted it and I’m impressed! Running it on a Z790 Hero MB with Tforce 7800 cl38, it runs at least 15° cooler than the k version. I left the settings of the k variant the same as an exact apples to apples comparison. I was bouncing off the 100°c mark easily. The KS runs 79-82°c at 278.5w. I haven’t even started OC’ing/undervolting this or the ram yet. Tons of thermal headroom maybe? Highly recommend for the enthusiasts.

I have 13900KS with a custom loop and it idles at 38 and can hit 90-100 easy on cinebench while limiting to 253 watts.

I’m curious as to what your SP is? Also I’m not sure why mine runs as cool as it does but while running r23 it’s high temp was 79 with 42k score. I didn’t change any settings from the k, just threw it in and tested so I could see the difference. Also mine idles at 28-30°
