Intel Core i5-9600K pushed to 5.2 GHz on air with benchmarks

The temperatures were a bit over 90C, so a water-cooling solution might be more appropriate, still it is quite impressive how the STIM material helps with the overclocking procedure. The OC-ed processor performed similar to a stock i7-8700.
