The Dell XPS 8930 supports the Core i9-9900K — a flagship in a consumer tower

Dell equipped the XPS 8930 with an LGA 1151 socket that covers 8th and 9th Gen Core processors. Notably, it supports the Core i9-9900K — Intel’s 8-core, 16-thread flagship of the 9th Gen lineup — which is impressive for a pre-built consumer desktop tower. Most OEMs at this tier stop at i7, so seeing i9 support is a pleasant surprise.
