Question PCG 2015C vs PCG 2015D

[PH-Bench]

I recently sent my nephew a CPU. I sent him an Intel® Core™ i9-10850K Processor. I did not have the CPU HeatSink for that processor. However, I did have the CPU HeatSink for the Intel® Core™ i7-10700 Processor on hand. The spec sheet clearly states the "Thermal Solution Specification" for each processor. I noticed that the 10700 states it takes a PCG 2015C, and the 10850K states it takes a PCG 2015D. However, I wondered if this would work for that processor and provide adequate cooling. Thanks

The 2015C is only rated for CPUs running at 65w TDP (or lower). The i9 is a 125w CPU. Probably not a good pairing.

The 2015D is rated up to 130w.
