Benchmark Result Discussion

To be honest, this took me three or four days and nearly a hundred tests in total. But after playing this game for so long, I have always been curious about how much improvement different hardware specifications can achieve at different resolutions, and where the budget should be spent most reasonably. Many new CPUs and GPUs will be released in 2025. I hope that through a comprehensive test, everyone can get the maximum performance improvement within a reasonable budget.
4090 is such a monster of a card. I have managed to secure a bargain during the blackwell release drama. I would definitely recommend anyone who plans to upgrade and willing to shell out more then the midrange cards.
 
As of now, the highest temp my cpu has reached is right around 65c under sustained full load. The KS model comes with a small OC from factory and i have the K series (no OC). I would think I'm safe to OC if I wished to do so.
Side note I'm quite happy with my PC overall performance so, likely will not look at any OCing. If I do anything, it will be water cooling my 4090. That thing will reach 90c if I'd let it.
 
There is something wrong with these results.
My old 13900k, no OC, performed slightly better, even after intel bios voltage security downgrades... oh sorry, i mean updates

You don't need to OC 14900k. Just make sure to disable HT in bios, turn on XMP, and properly configure the patch. After that yours results will beat my 13900k for sure.
These were my settings for 13900k:

Right now i'm using 285k. It seems, it's finally getting fixed. At least at up-to-date windows.
