Intel Core i5 8600 processor (65W) review - Product Showcase

by Hilbert Hagedoorn on: 04/03/2018 08:04 AM [

In the photo above you can see the Core i5 8600. This is an Engineering Sample, the base clock frequency of this processor is 3.1 GHz with an all-core Turbo to 4.1 GHz and a one thread Turbo of 4.3 GHz. These six-core / six-threads proc has a 65 Watt TDP.

For the Coffee Lake 8th gen processors you will need a Z370/H370 or a compatible series 300 motherboard, this is mandatory. Intel uses its traditional socket mounting system that you know from the Series 100 and 200 platform. An advantage here is that you can re-use your old cooler as the socket mounting itself has remained the same.

Our review will be conducted on the Gigabyte Aorus Z370 Ultra Gaming (review).
