Tested once more and the scores clearly better; 3369 points on CineBench is within expectations. Are those the typical results? After reviewing UserBenchmark, my CPU still lags at the 16th percentile (Game 102%, Desk 90%, Work 90%). Is this normal variation? Benchmarks: Game 102%, Desk 90%, Work 90% CPU – Intel Core i7-9700K, GPU Nvidia RTX 2080, SSD Samsung 840 Pro 256GB, HDD Seagate Barracuda 7200.14, RAM G.SKILL Trident Z DDR4 3200 C16, 104.1%, MBD Asus PRIME Z390-A.
They’re pushing their processors to higher speeds and then sending in the results. Your position here is correct. While overclocking can boost performance, these components heat up quickly. If you’re using the built-in cooler, stick with it—it works fine for now. It’s working well from my end.
Thanks! It really confirms my worries about the lizard brain.
