The i9-9900KS is OUTSTANDING. I'm getting 130 FPS on average with my EVGA 1080 Ti and it rips through any video games I have. I enabled the XMP profile on my memory to get 3200 Mhz..
The price point is crazy. I bought the CPU after the initial sale in October 2019 sale and I paid a hefty price ($629.00) for it. Do I regret it - No.
Final thought - if you're on a price budget. Don't get in the overclocking game. It will drain your wallet.
But seriously. Good CPU. Does the job. Not worth the price though. Yes it’s guaranteed to clock to 5ghz but so what. The non “S” models (90% of the time) can do that too. Oh well.
Update August 2020:
I kept running in to Blue Screens of Death (BSODs). Worked with Microsoft to troubleshoot and found out it was the CPU. Replaced with and old i7-8700K and it started working.
Working with Intel Warranty team has been the worst experience I have ever had when dealing with a Warranty claim, takes about a week sending them all the information to prove you didn't overclock it, and then you give them all your information for the refund that will take 6-10 days to receive, but you won't get it till you send them their broken CPU back. Try to get product coverage with Amazon instead.
It's worth remembering that all the very best 9900K's will serve as the basis for the "KS", so your chances of receiving just a mediocre "K" will increase dramatically.

It is a kind of "silicon lottery guanrantee." Those who want 5GHz on all threads will get it with this model.
As everyone knows no two cpus are the same. An i9-9900k (not ks) might be as good with overclocking, but no way to know, it's possible that it will never go above rated speed if unlucky with the "silicon lottery."
Negative Point: Warrantee is only 1 year. Others are 3 years. As overclocking voids warranty if any OC is detected the warranty of all chips is cancelled so it makes little difference to any overclocker.
I wonder why 1 year though? Intel said because replacement stock is sold out quickly for this "special," version. Mmmmm. Also they know customers of this are likely to be enthusiast and OC can be hidden. Also the TDP is higher: 95w regular. This is 127w.
The price increase is small, so for me the only small downside/question is it.
It is by far the fasted 9th gen cpu out of the box. Many can be overclocked to 5.1GHz, and with good cooling a lot will manage 5.2GHz. The only enemy of 5.2GHz is HEAT. Make sure to have a good mobo with best VRMs, and use powerful cooking. I use Arctic 2 which is different thickness than othe AIO. Standard for all compaies is 27mm. This is deeper, 34mm approx so check it fits. Lenghe is no issue. Arctic 2 was the best 280 AIO available at time of purchase.
So I say strongly, you must have strong CPU cooler. This CPU generates an enormous amount of heat and is only viable with an above average water cooler. That't very important.
