    Goodness. Soo get this: good 13900K CPUs get up binned to 13900KS CPUs, the best of which have recently turned into 14900K CPUs, making the latest flagship an up-bin of an up-bin. And all you’re paying for with each up-bin is 100-200MHz at similar voltages, no guarantee of IMC which is still all over the place and for all you know, an i5 may run DDR5 better than your up-binned up-bin. And now you’re telling me there’s even more up-binning to the 14900KS?? Making this, what? An up-bin, of an up-bin, of an up-bin, of an up-bin?? Amazing!!

      And then now they’ll claim “and we kept the same socket for the 13th and 14th gen” when it’s really the same generation.

    It’s amazing to see how powerful a Jay Z endorsement is for Intel. All my gaming buddies ridiculed me for building a 13900k and now that Jay is switching to Intel, they wanna know “How’s that Intel working and does it BSOD”? 😮‍💨
