[SOLVED] Core i9-9900k or i9-9900 if not Overclocking?

[rickypicky5]

My local Microcenter has the 'k' version for $449 and the non-'k' version for $399. I have no plans to overclock. Is it worth the extra $50 to get the better binned CPU?

Well, figure in an extra $50 for both and there isnt much difference in price.

Id go for the non k if you arent ocing.

If you will like to go 5GHz on all cores then the "K" is the way to go.

Now if you ask me between those two, I will pick the non-k for a non-oc mobo and just spend those extra $50 you save towars a better GPU, RAM or cooling solution.

Cheers
