Intel 6-core Coffee Lake Surfaces in GeekBench (again)

An Intel upcoming 6-core Coffee Lake generation processor has surfaces in GeekBench (again). This CPU scored 4,619 points on a single thread and 20,828 on multi-threading. A comparable slightly clocked Ryzen 5 1600X (also 6-cores) scores 4,574 in single-core performance and 20,769 for the multi-core.

The coffee lake 14nm proc is a 6-core processor with 12 threads clocked at 3.19GHz. It has 1.5MB of L2 cache and 12MB of L3 cache. The proc should be running at a base-clock of 3.2 GHz however there is no metric of the Turbo clock-speed. It however is expect it to be 4.2GHz. Coffee Lake would be released together with the Z370 / H370 chipsets and logic assumes a release later this year in the Q3 region. Intel 300 series desktop processor motherboard would be based on the current LGA 1151 socket.

Coffee Lake is based on a 14nm fabrication node and would see a release in August or September with desktop version in a 4-core and 6-core model. It is rumored to be 15% faster compared to Kaby Lake. These would be tied towards the H370 and Z370 chipsets, and you guess it .. it will have a new socket. Obviously Intel will release K models (unlocked) in the Coffee Lake generation. In Q1 2018 Coffee Lake-S would see the light of day, these are dual-core parts.

So it has same performance as a cheaper? Ryzen 5? I don't understand what we miss here?

It's possible those aren't the final clocks (hopefully)...

Well, I am not liking the apparent IPC boost of the coofee lake.
3.2GHZ with an unknown turbo of X GHZ for single core.

It scores 4619 in single core performance, so I believe it's going to be a very small IPC boost, altough, at least we have now 6 cores CPU coming
