Intel 8 core Coffee Lake To be released in this fall

Intel 8 core Coffee Lake To be released in this fall

So you just picked up that six-core Core i7 8086K? Well, Intel will release their 8-core mainstream part in the Fall, the processor will be based on Coffee Lake, meaning a new SKU with two more cores. The LGA 2066 platform will also get an update towards a 22-core processor.

The news reaches us through the otherwise well-informed PC Watch, The Coffee Lake Refresh with the 8-core part would be available in the market by September. The processor is released by Intel to close the gap towards the competitor's Ryzen refresh.

There is other news, the Basin Falls platform will also receive a refresh. Intel's LGA-2066 platform for Skylake-X and Xeon W would see another SKU with four more cores, moving from 18 cores towards processor with up to 22 cores. Cascade Lake would be been postponed towards 2019.

So they release the "anniversary" 8086K priced $75 above the 8700k's current one just to prepare the masses for the 8-core CL's pricing? lol

Intel's meeting: "People! Because of
those
you know who, we had to lower our 8700K prices and we are losing margins! Find a solution to get them back up again!"
Staff: "Sir, you gonna love this here! It's called 8700K 8086K! Same thing, newer and even higher msrp than the first one!"
Boss: "What's your name son?"
Staff: "Employee, sir"
...........

Can't wait to see what price Intel would put on it.

This could be the best gaming CPU ever - as it's based on the same architecture as the 8700K, ring bus rather than the mesh of the 10,12,etc core Intel CPUs. But, the caveat to that is only if it can hit the same frequencies as the 8700K, then it would be the best gaming CPU, otherwise 8700K with 6 cores at higher frequency would be better for most games.

This 8 core processor will be based on same architecture and 14nm technology, combined with toothpaste will result in a very hot processor which can boost 1 core to 4.7 (or whatever they will set for it).
Don't forget the extortion prices they will most likely ask for it, and potentially once again they will make it incompatible with the current socket.

No news of Cannon Lake? So Intel just got Coffee Lake until release of Ice Lake? That's weak.

Ice Lake better deliver on price and performance in 2019 with 10nm node, otherwise it might get crashed by Zen2.

Ah, the smell of competition!
Intel seeing people prefer Ryzen productivity over core speed is making them release "new" things. In truth, they could have done this years ago but had no reason to not milk customers.
Unfortunately for them, price is always a consideration. Most people buying ryzen wouldn't buy overpriced Intel anyway.

Cannon lake is now mobile only.

Next gen desktop will yes be Icelake, that true next gen cpu, moving away from sandy bridge core roots..


Imo icelake will be the only interesting cpu from intel.. so its either win or bust.

From what I saw so far it should be pretty good,.

Interesting. Is there any worthy read? Wiki page is pretty empty.

Tnx but no tnx.
Anyone who needs an 8-core gets an 2700K or perhaps saves a bit for new TR's.

Too little too late Intel.

I think it's pretty exciting that AMD stimulated this kind of competition in the CPU market. Both companies are releasing better products less than every year now. Better for the consumer all the way around.

If someone with stake in intel reads this thread and sees this sentiment...

What kind of exquisite nightmares that person must have? You guys are so cruel :D

I saw some leaks once at tweaktown? Basically saying it will move from this old x86 seen since Sandy bridge (coffee lake and cannon lake is still old arch), to something completely new, also with new instructions, ditching old and what not.

Overall I got the impression it would be a real game changer.

I'd think they would have other things to worry about. In consumer markets they're holding their own, but they're about to get crushed in HEDT and servers. ;)
