The box opens up revealing a translucent blue plastic sheet with Intel’s logo right in the center. Under the blue plastic insert is the CPUs in this case, we were sent the i9-10900k and the i5-10600 K CPUs. This review focuses on the i9-10900k.
The 10th gen i9 is contained inside a small box. Inside, the CPU is encased in a standard CPU blister pack.
Physically, there’s virtually no difference in the IHS between the 10th gen and older gen CPUs.
