I have to say that the issue of PL2 power/voltage settings varying based on board has made reviewing 9th-gen Intel chips a nightmare. It seems to be strange that jacking up the PL2 settings to 200+W does very little for the default performance of the 9900k while still greatly increasing power usage.
If we really want good power measurements for this chip, we need two serieseseses (?!?) of tests: one showing the chip operating at clockspeeds from 4.7 GHz on up to 5.2 GHz (or higher) with the same fixed voltage required for the top clockspeed tested, and then another with vcore tuned to the lowest stable possible for any given clockspeed (same clocks, just tuned voltages). Because right now, we are getting highly-variant performance and power consumption for the chip, just based on the motherboard.
Also I am a little surprised by the number of people trying to compare the 9900k to first-gen TR CPUs when TR2 is on the market and doesn't cost that much except for the WX chips.
Finally, good luck buying the 9900k, since it's OoS everywhere except eBay. It will be awhile before we can get more tests run with actual retail samples instead of golden review samples.
