I bought an i9 processor with the new 5ghz speed and got a Cinebench score of 5160. Is this great? I don't really know.

If you are using an Intel Core i9-9900K and it is running at a full speed with the 5GHz overclock, that is a very good performance rating for a gaming or workstation computer.

If you got your hands on an Intel Core i9-9900K, that is totally fine for a 5 GHz overclock and gives it a very strong rating.
