Silicon Lottery is currently selling the Core i5-10600K 6 Core Desktop CPU in pre-binned Flavors, up to 5.1 GHz For $420 US


Similar to the Core i7-10700K, and Core i9-10900K, Silicon Lottery is now selling five different pre-binned variants of the Core i5-10600K processor.

These are pre-binned processor variants, not meant for the average gamer though, since you need to pay a premium for it. Hardcore gamers and serious overclockers might find this deal tempting, since they are getting a highly binned variant straight out of the box. Not meant for regular or casual gamers.

The Intel Core i5-10600K is the mainstream and entry-level unlocked chip in the 10th Gen CPU lineup. At stock, the CPU features 6 cores, 12 threads, and clock speeds of 4.10 GHz base and 4.80 GHz boost. Additional specs include 12 MB of cache, support for DDR4-2666 memory (native), and a TDP that is configured at 125W at the base clocks. Actual TDP at boost frequency is rated at 182W.

Silicon Lottery is offering five pre-binned flavors of the chip starting with the standard 4.7GHz and going all the way up to 5.1 GHz.

10600K @ 4.7GHz up to 6 cores, 4.8GHz up to 2 cores.

Vcore under heavy load @ 1.350V BIOS, 1.300V Socket Sense, 1.240V Die Sense.

10600K @ 4.8GHz up to 6 cores, 4.9GHz up to 2 cores.

Vcore under heavy load @ 1.375V BIOS, 1.320V Socket Sense, 1.260V Die Sense.

10600K @ 4.9GHz up to 6 cores, 5.0GHz up to 2 cores.

Vcore under heavy load @ 1.400V BIOS, 1.340V Socket Sense, 1.280V Die Sense.

10600K @ 5.0GHz up to 6 cores, 5.1GHz up to 2 cores.

Vcore under heavy load @ 1.425V BIOS, 1.360V Socket Sense, 1.300V Die Sense.

10600K @ 5.1GHz up to 6 cores, 5.2GHz up to 2 cores.

Vcore under heavy load @ 1.450V BIOS, 1.380V Socket Sense, 1.320V Die Sense.

Silicon Lottery is also offering an optional delidding service. Delidding may take up to one business day to complete, depending on current pre-delidded inventory available.

In general, Silicon Lottery usually sticks with an AVX offset value of 1 which subtracts 100 MHz from the advertised clock speeds when the CPU is engaged in AVX workloads, for most of these binned and other similar parts. For the Asus Rog Maximus XII series of motherboards (Apex, Extreme, Formula, Hero), a Load-Line Calibration (LLC) value of 3 is specified by the company, whereas for Z490 motherboards from other brands, Silicon Lottery recommends a value of 4.

Silicon Lottery is offering a delidded Comet Lake-S chip here, which can help reduce the operating temperature anywhere from 5 degrees to 15 degrees Celsius, when the processor is under heavy stress and workload.
