That means you're throttling during most compiling, encoding, decompression and some gaming scenarios. It took less than 30 secs sustained load for it to throttle at stock settings. while waiting for my NH-D15 to arrive I was running the Hyper 212 EVO from my old computer on my new 9900k.
Ther Hyper 212 RGB equipped with SickleFlow 120 RGB fan and provides the best airflow and static pressure to take the heat away. The Direct Contact Technology, stacked fins and 4 heatpipes, reduces airflow resistance, reduces heat spots, and increase airflow to the heatsinks. You'll never get full performance out of a 9900k with your Hyper 212 EVO. The Hyper 212 RGB maintains the same cooling efficiency as the Hyper 212 LED. You need to dissipate around 200W of heat if you're running at 4.6 Ghz and your cooler has a TDP of 150W. You'll be throttling in any stress test with a Hyper 212 EVO on a 9900k. Nice and quiet and good enough for me! The black looks nice had the RGB fan hooked to my ASUS mobo rolls slowly through the colors.A Noctua NH-D15 on a 9900k maxes out in the 70's degrees with no OC. With a i9-9900K and a 4.6GHz OC, I can run the fan at low speeds and have the temp max out at around 70C. It works fine as long as I don't go crazy overclocking the CPU.
