Is Noctua NH-D15 good for i7 10700K?
As to i9-10900K or i7-10700K, it depends on what your main purpose is. Either will be cooled well enough with a NH-D15 and either will play games about the same. The difference is that multithreaded batch apps that can use 20 threads will run better on the I9. For games you will see no difference in performance.
Does NH-D15 need both fans?
