Are the ones in the store the stock that failed the binning selection? I know the retail boxes have been cleaned out but there are stock of the tray type.

Nope and we have both tray and retail in stock of 8600k. Anything for purchase from the webstore is brand new and un-used.

Any binned 8600k will be made available as a binned processor or used in our system integration.

Heh, you didn't have any retail showing when i placed an order an hour ago, gutted. Can never have too many spare retail coolers or longer warranty

Doubt it. my 8600k from ocuk's oem tray is running nicely at 5.1ghz

Also to add we have not even started to attempt speed binning 8600k yet, simply because 8 Pack is too busy with 8700K and Skylake X product, we probably won't be offering binned 8600k until another month or so.

Gibbo I think You should have Sticky topic about Binning process on this Sub forums. Every other day someone comes and asks if CPUs on sale are ones that failed Binnign process :/

Well the i7 retails were blagged for binned sales so it makes sense to ask.

Although it hadn't occurred to me to use the search, i'll give you that.

there is this crappy rummor that OCUK and other Binned cpu selling companies. Test ALL STOCK and sell ****** ones as normal and keep good clockers for bigger profits.

Im on quite a few forums and I end up explainging how it works and why one should buy BNinned.

3 guys from my Polish forums decided to buy boxed 8700k's and only one does 5ghz other ones even tho delided are not 5ghz stable. I told them to order from ocuk but they ware like.. Ye right all of those chips are doing 5ghz after delid.....

Interesting.. I thought the vast majority of 8700K's would achieve 5GHz with ease (even if it does require a delid to keep temperatures under control).

Shame delid tools are expensive

jigger · 24 Oct 2017 at 22:23

Razor blades
Desk vice
Toffee hammer
A few small pieces of wood.

£15~

Silicon lottery will be releasing Bunning figures soon enough so we will find out soon enough.

oh ffs, once i'd arranged the rma of my tray cpu (webnote sent in the morning, before the courier had even left the depot, rma arranged an hour after it arrived!) they've run out of retail 8600k again!
£570 of bits with no cpu is annoying.

The one I received on Monday from OCUK was spotless and had no sign of being used at all. Except only if OCUK bins the CPUs without cooler and thermal paste

Mine too. I've been running it @5ghz 1.35v it does need an AVX offset. I have it at 2 haven't tried 1. I think it would get too hot at 1. With 2, core4 hits 86c core2 89c and the others stay near 80c while running prime95. I haven't tried reducing voltage to see if it stays stable yet. I'm using an EK a240 kit on it.
