Nothing exactly earth-shattering news, but it could actually be a sweet-spot processor. The six-core Intel Core i5 8500 has some entries in Sandra, and that indicates the proc might become available rather sooner than later.



The entry lists an i5-8500 six-core processor listed on several budget motherboards, as the colleagues from TPU spotted earlier today. The Intel Core i5-8500 has six cores, no hyperthreading but would be a notch faster compared to the Core i5 8400. It is expected to be a 200 USD processor.

 * spec not final

The CPU has a 3.00 GHz base clock speed, unfortunately, the Turbo Boost frequencies are not listed. The i5-8400 comes with a 4.00 GHz Boost frequency so arguably you can expect something 4.20 or 4.30 GHz.
