The Performance & Power Efficiency Of The Core i7 990X vs. Core i9 9900K
Building the Linux kernel went from taking over three minutes to now just over one minute with this K-series processor....
While consuming much less power as well.
The single-threaded performance is also a great deal faster.
One of the largest differences was in OpenSSL performance where the 9900K was five times faster than the 990X.
The performance-per-Watt was a 6.8x improvement for OpenSSL.
