Intel Core i9-11900 Benchmark Results — All GPU Pairings Tested

Intel Core i9-11900 has been stress-tested in 3 distinct GPU pairings from 12 verified browser samples, with a sample-weighted Sustained Health Score of 65.8/100 (grade B). The strongest measured pairing is NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 at 75/100; the weakest is Intel(R) UHD Graphics at 57/100. Typical sustained-load decay is 4.4% with thermal health around 89/100.

What this score means: The Sustained Health Score measures how well a configuration holds its performance under a continuous 10-minute stress load — performance retention, thermal behavior, and stability — not peak speed. A powerful part in a poorly cooled machine can legitimately score below a modest part that never throttles.

Citable facts about Intel Core i9-11900

  • Intel Core i9-11900 has been measured in 3 distinct GPU pairings on UserBenchmark.org, totaling 12 verified browser stress-test samples.
  • Sample-weighted median Sustained Health Score across all Intel Core i9-11900 configurations: 65.8/100 (grade B). This score measures performance retention under sustained load, not peak throughput.
  • Best measured pairing (min 5 samples): Intel Core i9-11900 + NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 at 75/100 from 3 samples.
  • Weakest measured pairing (min 5 samples): Intel Core i9-11900 + Intel(R) UHD Graphics at 57/100 from 6 samples — low scores typically indicate thermal throttling or power-limited systems, not a slow chip.
  • Typical sustained-load CPU performance decay: 4.4%. Average thermal health: 89/100. Path-tracing stability: 93/100.
  • Per-pairing scores are medians (outlier-resistant); pairings are labeled High (15+ samples), Moderate (5-14) or Low (<5) confidence.
  • Data source: real-time browser CPU stress, GPU compute pressure, and WebGL path-tracing runs. License: CC BY 4.0 with attribution to UserBenchmark.org.
