That is a really good PSU

Intel i9-9900K vs i7-8700K - Best Gaming CPU? - YouTube

8700K still strong

The difference between being 25 years old and still drinking(a whole lot), and 52 years old and not drinking:

At 25, two Coors more


VS:

At 52, two cores more

So if your 68, you would need 8 cores more....maybe 16 cores??

I won't know what my prices will be for the binned and delidded chips until Nov 2nd. Which is where I will be getting mine.

So, 5.2GHz is out of question ?

I really want one of those 9900Ks, but I can't justify upgrading from my 7700K at the moment.

I just finally bought a replacement for the oldest part in my PC, the PSU. Managed to snag an EVGA 1000w G1+ 80 Gold for $100 lower than it's usual price. I'll finally have a modular PSU...five years after everyone else.

Yep, most of the PSU prices have been lowered at EVGA.

And what do ya know, according to one of the articles, Intel has finally put a solder based TIM on the 9900K
