Intel has created another gluttonous monster? Core i9-11900KF heats up to almost 100 degrees even with liquid cooling

The Core i9-11900K processor will be the flagship of the Rocket Lake lineup, due out later this quarter. Recall that the processor will be eight-core based on the new architecture, but on the old 14-nanometer process technology. In this case, the frequencies will exceed 5 GHz, that is, power consumption is expected to be high.

And new leaks indicate that the new product will have problems with power consumption. The Core i9-11900KF model, which is distinguished by a disabled GPU, allegedly warmed up to 98 degrees in the AIDA64 stress test. And the problem is that this is when using some kind of inexpensive liquid cooling system!

This is too much, considering that the CPU was not overclocked. It is worth noting that the software incorrectly determined the voltage (should be 1.325 V, not 1.4 V), but this is clearly not the problem. Perhaps this is a marriage of a particular specimen. For example, it has poor contact between the lid and the crystal.

And yet, apparently, the PL2 value (maximum power limit) for the new product is 250 W, like the flagship Commet Lake-S.
