I assume people got burned by the artificial segmentation of the CPUs solely for pricing purposes. Trusting Intel to provide accurate info on the actual performances of a chip feels too naive at this point.

If Intel wanted to use power/thermal limits for market segmentation they'd be locked down like the turbo frequency tables on non-K CPUs.

    I'm not aware of any modern CPUs getting hacked to unlock the multiplier. All you can do is BCLK overclocking
