Wrapping up with the 720p data first, these low-res results are important for a few reasons, though for some they can be a bit misleading. They're important because they show us the true difference between CPUs in these games. With any speed limits remove...
For this article, we completed nearly 500 individual benchmark runs to paint a more complete picture on the DDR memory situation with Coffee Lake. We had no problems reaching our targets thanks to Gigabyte's fine Z370 Ultra Gaming and G.SKILL's outstandi...

It has been a long time coming, but we finally have something bigger than a quad-core processor on Intel's mainstream platform. Fundamentally it might be the same architecture as the processors preceded it, but after a decade of quad-core Intel parts, it...
Abstract: Early in 2017, Intel released their brand new Kaby Lake platform, featuring a plethora of CPUs and motherboards. The Kaby Lake platform introduced nothing new over what Skylake and its boards already offered. It was simply part of Intel's yearly refresh a...
Whether or not we have to thank AMD for Intel's quick turnaround on the availability of six-core consumer-grade CPUs we will never know for sure. However, it became very clear to us that the Core i7-8700K hits the sweet spot of multi-core performance almo...
So I think most people will admit that AMD has had a lot of wins this year with all of the Ryzen launches. As I found out in our 1700v7700K coverage the 7700K was still a great performing CPU, especially when looking at gaming performance. But with ju...
Abstract: Intel's 6-core 8th generation Core i7-8700K CPU is the reality check to high-performance, high-priced CPUs like the $2,000 Core i9 and $1,000 AMD Ryzen Threadripper. The real battle for the desktop and consumer's wallets is with this amazingly affordable...

The best CPU for gaming, Strong out-of-the-box clock speed, Intel's six-cores beat AMD's eight-cores in many production tasks, Offers substantial gains over Skylake and Kaby Lake in multithreaded apps
Still only 16 PCIe lanes on the CPU, Platform needs voltage tweaks to run at its best, Coffee Lake is the third "optimisation" of an existing architecture with no IPC improvement, The 8700K runs very hot and pulls a lot of watts, You can overclock to over
6-core in a mainstream Intel chip, 36% multi-core performance improvement over the i7-7700K, Can easily overclock to 5.0 GHz, Single-core performance improvements, Beats Ryzen in gaming performance, Platform has 40 PCI-Express 3.0 lanes
New motherboard needed, Sort of upsetting if you've bought an i7-7700K recently
As you can see from our results on the previous page this is not an ordinary processor update from Intel. The 8th Generation Core Desktop series is bringing with it increases in core counts finally! We are going to see 6-core i5's and i7's and even quad-c...
It's hard to know where to start here. Besides the exciting times of finally seeing more than 4 cores on the mainstream desktop platform, all 6 cores come out swinging. Intel's i7-8700K consistently placed at or very near the top of all of our benchmark r...
