I9 9900 KS anyone??

Anybody tried an i9 9900KS yet?? Curious about possibly replacing my i7 with some over clocked goodness!

I'm considering this, but I'm unsure of it's stability on my Z370, even though the VRMs are supposed to be able to handle this if I don't OC it in an absurd way...

Now looking into the KF and just using the dGPU and an iMP setup. The iMP config works really well with FCPX with my existing build with iGPU disabled. I'm just trying to squeeze every thing I can from the CPU without letting out the magic smoke. i9 9900KF = 95W TDP vs. i9 9900KS = 127W TDP. Hmmm.

Interesting video. KS is definitely not just a powered up 9900K

Well, I decided to spring for it. I'll let everyone know the results!

I am curious to hear about your results!

Given this news re video encoding support, it seems like buying the highest performing Intel CPU that has an iGPU might make good sense for future hackintoshes!

Did you ever go for it? I'm considering using it as well

I did and it works perfectly. Get a good cooler, though ;-)

Having trouble with my 9900KS getting memory allocation boot errors. Any special drivers used?
