[SOLVED] i9-10900 (non-k) in a B-460 board?

Solution
Just wondering if it would be a good idea to put a 10900 in the asus rog strix b460-f... with the right cpu cooler etc.

this article talks about asus announcing this particular motherboard and its 'overclocking' ability on non-k chips
up to 210W (or something like that), even bench marking it with the 10900

Thanks!
It's reasonable if you don't want to run fast memory speeds. The B460 is limited to 2933, while the Z490 goes much higher using onboard overclock, so you can use up to 4800. Take a look at the specs on the ASUS site before deciding to see if the features matter to you.
