As i said in the other thread, be prepared for these to be £500+ minimum at launch, Intel is having all sorts of problems getting 14nm supply out the door right now, expect the 9xxx chips to be extremely limited supply at release, they will probably be MSRP for extremely limited units at launch and i fully expect within an hour the price to go past the £500 mark and might even hit the £600 mark.

The fact right now any MSRP 8700K are on a waiting list for delivery pretty much tells you everything you need to know, you can buy 8700K now but they are marked up at a premium, because of the supply constraints, the 9900K is not going to magically appear cheaper than you can get an 8700K for at the moment, and if the 8700K or 8086K is currently around the £450+ mark, you honestly think the 9900K is going to be anything south of that?? no.. it will be at minimum £30 more, more likely £50 more...
 
Are you using the latest drivers? There was a bug with G-Sync if the game was running windowed/borderless windowed mode and not proper full screen, you get stutter. 398.86 and above fixes it: https://nvidia.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/4693/~/geforce-hotfix-driver-version-398.86

Windowed G-Sync mode may stutter after upgrading to Windows 10 April 2018 Update.

There was also a micro-stutter bug that was caused when using apps with power monitoring but I think that's also been solved.
