Now that you already know where and at what price you can buy motherboards with a LGA 2066 connector and Intel Skylake-X processors, it makes sense to discuss whether you need to do this. At least, a series of reviews of the serial processors of this family is designed to alert the potential buyer.
A practical study, conducted by Tom's Hardware Guide , revealed the shortcomings of both motherboards and the central processors of the Skylake-X series. If you keep behind the scenes the actively included "throttling" both from the side of the processor and from the side of the power system, you can find out that the standard thermal interface of LGA 2066 processors disgustingly manifests itself with the growth of the thermal load. Colleagues measured the temperature difference between
the motherboard readings and the actual measurements at the top of the processor cover, and in limiting modes it reached 71 degrees!
This means that the regular thermal interface simply can not cope with the work. More precisely, it becomes a "bottleneck", especially when overclocked. And to increase the intensity of cooling the processor without replacing this thermal interface there is no sense. Moreover, the authors of the review recommend using a liquid system for cooling the ten-core Core i9-7900X, even if overclocking is not planned. Related Products :
