Why is this news? Anyone care to point out the last halo CPU from either AMD or Intel that Silicon Lottery didn't bin? How much did Silicon Lottery pay you guys to post this advertisement as a news article?

The i9 9900ks is a high binned chip already. I doubt there will be much reason to bin.

Does this mean that they also sell below average performing chips for cheaper? Because I don't need the overclocking, I'd just like to get one at or maybe a little less than stock speed to save a buck or two.

Yeah. We know quite well how ”exiting” overclocking is with modern cpus/gpus... move on nothing worth seeing is here. What this will tell is the delta between ”bad” and ”golden” samples... and that is not very wide in these days.

Agreed. Its a 5GHz all core binned chip. I doubt any of them wont still OC slightly higher, 5.1 to 5.2GHz. Its why there is a premium over the 9900K/9900KF.

The Ryzen I understand even though this should be the best of the Zen 2 chips.
