9900KS and 5.0 GHz forever?

I dunno looking at their spec sheet its almost identical to the 9900K.  Base is higher, but turbo boost (listed as single core boost) is listed as 5.0.  Only one core can hit 5.0 from baseline.  I thought the whole thing with the KS was they were guaranteeing it COULD do 5.0 all core, but you still have to do an OC or enable MCE.

 

I might be completely wrong, it just looks like their website spec sheet lists it as single core only like the 9900k

Pretty sure the 9900KS was designed almost entirely for the all core turbo

Youre right, I was reading the spec sheet like a dumb.

 

It says the turbo boost is the maximum that a single core can hit (that doesnt preclude all cores from hitting the same).  Just the way it was on there I was getting that mixed up with single core boost (like the 9900k does as stock).  

 

Bad reading comprehension on my part
