It was 2011 when Intel released Sandy Bridge, so we grab Core i7 2600K and revisit it in the year 2018, apply Windows 10 and compare that Core i7 2600K towards Ryzen 1800X and Core i7 8700K through our processor and gaming benchmark paces.

ASUS didn't have any available. Which reminds me, Gigabyte still needs to answer if they have a board.

If I had a $100 I could get a Asus P7P55D-E Pro with a 2600k and 8GB DDR3 1600, and I would ship the board to HH for a OC review.
But I am poor.

Thanks for the reply there Hilbert. It's good to hear you're still wanting to add those overclock results into the article, I think it would add a lot to that article & make it a lot more relevant for the folks out there with a 2600K, because they mostly will be overclocking them if they still have them for gaming purposes. I'm guessing that if you are able to update the article that you'll post it back up on the front page so people know about it.

A very astute observation. My 2500K at 4.4 is speedy enough. And more than compensates for the incremental improvements in newer architectures up to Kaby Lake.
The reason to upgrade now just recently became something really tangible with the introduction of Zen and Intel's Coffee Lake response.
I have a feeling Intel has been holding back on us. We probably could have had hex core i5-i7 Haswell procs if AMD had been competitive then.
