Intel Core i9-9900 Processor (16M Cache, up to 5.00 GHz) Benchmark Results — All GPU Pairings Tested

Intel Core i9-9900 Processor (16M Cache, up to 5.00 GHz) has been stress-tested in 3 distinct GPU pairings from 17 verified browser samples, with a sample-weighted Sustained Health Score of 63.6/100 (grade C). The strongest measured pairing is NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 Ti at 65/100; the weakest is Intel(R) UHD Graphics 630 at 58/100. Typical sustained-load decay is 0.8% 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.
