Intel Core i5 8600 processor (65W) review

Intel released a new six-core processor the Core i5 8600 (non-K model) through our benchmark paces. This proc is again a six-core processor that you will need to seat on a Z370, H370 or B360 chipset based motherboard. While it isn't fitted with hyper-threading, it might, however, be one sweet gaming processor with its low 65W TDP, a 3.1 GHz base-clock and an all-core turbo of 4.1 GHz.

We'll check out the more mainstream six-core proc from Intel as we put the Core i5 8600K through our benchmark paces. This $257 USD proc is again a six-core processor that you will need to seat on a Z370 chipset based motherboard. While it isn't fitted enabled with hyper-threading, it might, however, be one sweet gaming processor with its all-core turbo to 4.1 GHz and again it being tweakable to 5.0 GHz on all six cores.

We review the Gigabyte X170 Extreme ECC motherboard, an Xeon compatible Intel chipset based product that is loaded with kit, ECC memory support (if you use a Xeon) and features. Though the chipset and processor used are intended for the server platform this motherboard was made all consumer grade with all whistles and bells. It is SLI/Crossfire capable. Combined with a few extra's and an overall high class build Gigabyte is showing a mighty fine offering paired with a Intel Xeon E3-1230 v5. But how will it perform?
