MAINGEAR products featuring the i9-9900KS offer an unmatched level of performance that takes your gaming and streaming experience to the next level!

To celebrate this amazing achievement in processing power, MAINGEAR is offering the i9-9900KS in select desktop configurations, like the award-winning VYBE, with a Limited Edition VYBE 9900KS Edition — in extremely limited quantities. Powered by an 8-core Intel Core i9-9900KS, this special offering is a top-tier gaming machine and the best way to experience the incredible performance the i9-9900KS has to offer. The VYBE 9900KS Edition combines this monstrous processor with an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 Ti, ASUS ROG Ryujin 360 RGB AiO CPU Liquid Cooler with color display that helps users keep temperatures low and all-white VYBE chassis.



Intel 9th Gen Core i9-9900KS Key Features:
  • The fastest processor yet: Up to 5.0 GHz all-core turbo frequency; up to 4.0 GHz base frequency, which allows games to run faster when they scale across more cores for higher frame rates
  • Extreme performance at the highest level: Eight cores, 16 threads, 127 W TDP, 16 MB Intel Smart Cache, and up to 40 platform PCIe lanes
  • Seamless 4K Gaming: Up to 35% more frames per second compared with a 3-year-old PC and up to 17% faster 4K video editing compared with the previous generation and up to 78% faster compared with a 3-year-old PC
  • A Streamer's Dream: Up to 27% faster mega-tasking when you simultaneously game, stream, and record compared with a 3-year-old PC
  • Still room for more power: Overclock confidently with new and enhanced features like Intel Performance Maximizer, which makes it easy to dynamically and reliably custom-tune the unlocked processor based on the processor's individual performance DNA
The Intel 9th Gen Core i9-9900KS is available as a configuration option across MAINGEAR gaming desktops and workstations — including PC Gamer's Editor's Choice award-winning F131, the robust and powerful RUSH, and the R1 Razer custom edition. If you are currently enjoying a MAINGEAR PC and are looking to increase performance with the i9-9900KS, consider enrolling in the MAINGEAR EDGE subscription service, an affordable option to have the latest in powerful gaming hardware with a low upfront cost.

Looks like an H510 clone... so probably minor ventilation openings on the back side panel. Or maybe on the bottom.

I'd hate to be an employee of Intel's desktop marketing squad right now, getting paid to crank out things like "megatasking" and "5.0GHz means 5.0GHz".

You know, while it is probably a smart strategy for Intel to target owners of Skylake and Kaby, it feels so weird to read through an entire PR statement that consists entirely of "compared to a 3-year-old" PC. Maybe it's the context of the current position of Coffee Lake in Q4 2019, I dunno. This is my second time reading this regurgitated 9900KS PR.

While the performance is definitely still solid, I just can't shake the comparison in my mind to the likes of Pentium XE 965 and FX-9590. Thermally, it's already there. :laugh:

I think it's actually double-regurgitation. "Megatasking" was a term they used, get this... around 3 years ago now. :rolleyes:
