They are the same cpu but the s version is clocked a bit lower to allow for less power consumption.

Is there anything more between them than different TDPs and different clocks? I understand why AMD and Intel have Black Edition and K-series chips for overclocking, factory overclocked, and higher-binned chips, but why does Intel have S-series chips? I remember someone on Tom's Hardware - yes, I Googled this and didn't get much - said that it's for ITX and lower-power systems. That doesn't really matter since Intel CPUs tend to run at lower temps and use less power anyway. Also, people have said that for gaming and basic use, any i5 that isn't a K-series is going to be similar despite slightly different clock speeds and such along with Intel's CPU architecture. So, what's the deal with Intel's S-series CPUs?
Also, I have a headache, so I might not respond; I will probably read stuff, though.

the 4590 is stock, nothing special really.
The 4590S is more leaned for those who want more performance but don't want to overclock. to put it simply, that chip comes pre-overclocked to a little higher frequency

You lined it out pretty well. TDP and clock speed. That's it. The T and S series are power saver.

AFAIK the S-series is just a lower powered version of the normal Intel processors. I don't really see a need for them but they are useful for VERY low-powered PC's.

Lower clock, Lower TDP. Embedded option (BGA) , soldered onto mainboards, good for tight spaces. BGA/PGA, one's for consumer, one's for manufacturer.

Someone did mention something about the regular i5-4570 operating at high frequencies longer than S-series since it has a 84W TDP compared to the S's 65W TDP. Whatever the hell that means.
Also, really, Intel? Really? T, S, and K-series? For some reason, I thought T would stand for "Turbo" which is probably what they were aiming for especially for the uniformed masses. I guess, S is for "Speed" and K is for "Kickass" or "Klockable with a 'K' 'cause Intel's hip 'n shit". They should just go with "G" or something so it makes sense as "Green" chips or "energy-savers"... I hate Intel's and AMD's naming schemes.
AFAIK the S-series is just a lower powered version of the normal Intel processors. I don't really see a need for them but they are useful for VERY low-powered PC's.
It's a 19 watt difference... That's not much compared to the draw AMD's CPUs and GPUs can do.
