Granted. Especially a non-k version of the Intel ones. Intel's i9-9900T (35w) is on par with i7-8700K according to geekbench. So that would be a perfect candidate for air-cooling with a Noctua NH-L9i. Nice, cool, quiet Mjolnir[URL unfurl="true"]https://browser.geekbench.com/v5/cpu/search?q=i9-9900t[/URL][URL unfurl="true"]https://browser.geekbench.com/v5/cpu/search?q=i7-8700k[/URL]And then, there's also the ability to limit turbo TDP in BIOS to 65w on 65w CPUs. So all in all, things would work out nicely air cooling.I'm not a fan (no pun intended) of AIOs.
