Model overview based on user reviews  
The Intel Core i9 Coffee Lake Refresh is highly praised for its outstanding performance, especially in gaming and professional tasks like photo and video editing. Users appreciate its ability to handle top games with ease, often running at maximum settings without overclocking. The processor is noted for its overclocking capability and stable operation, making it a top choice for professionals. However, it does have a high power consumption, with some users reporting it can consume over 150 watts, and it tends to generate significant heat. Despite its high price, many believe the cost is justified given its performance. Some users suggest it could be more affordable, but overall, it is considered a powerful and reliable processor for those who can afford it.

definitely buy it if you have extra money for a CPU and a Z390 motherboard.

Sat on it for a whole year and have no complaints, it's a very good foot heater (especially in winter), turned on the game, and hot air starts coming from the top of the case (Fractal Design Meshify S2 case and Fractal Design S36) without hitting the CPU ceiling, the maximum was 70% in Cities: Skyline with a large population.
you can show off that you have an i9 9900KF and it's very powerful, enough to last for the next 10 years )) if not 20 ))
in the summer, it warms not only the soul but also the apartment )) and you can't blame clumsy hands on a weak computer anymore ))
Dmitriy Dergunovuse Intel i9-9900KF BOX more than year
There is money - take it, you won't regret it!

Here I will say this: the percentage is very powerful and for 3-4 years in games the performance will not rest on the processor (on ultra). For professional tasks top. I myself am engaged in editing and programming and photoshop (mostly a little bit) And here's what I'll say: for me it's ideal. And no AMD. I think the price is fully justified, especially since now it has fallen in price. I've been using for several months.
All:) It's not a percent but a monster. The price is justified
There are no cons.
use Intel i9-9900K BOX few months
Don't buy, get AMD

If you get it for gaming, it's a decent processor, but when you buy it, expect that soon you might not need to pay for heating; it heats up like the core of the sun and consumes more than 150 watts. Everything written about this processor is a lie, not a strong one, but still a lie. It boosts to 5 GHz only on one core, while on the others it ranges from 4.6 GHz to 4.9 GHz, and it's just an overpayment for the brand.
Good processor for gaming
In overclocking and otherwise, high TDP, and consumes over 150 watts
Dmitriy MGG Studiya:  i recommend it don't buy
