Intel Core i7-8700K Cinebench CB 15 Benchmarks
Tech Youtuber Karl Morin ran a Cinebench with Intel Core i7-8700K on a HP Omen PC. Intel's six core and twelve threads processor scored 1230 points in the multicore test. And that number is good enough to use in a bit of an overview.
Morin was attending at an event showcasing the HP Omen PC with the new Intel processor. Karl recorded a thing or two, however with an incredibly poor quality video. So, the PC did not have a monitor active yet Morin got ballsy and disconnected another monitor and closed it on the PC, then ran Cinebench. Below the multi-core result, I placed them into on of our own charts to compare with:
So I took that score and placed it into our own chart. If the Omen test system was setup right, the scores should be pretty final. The Core i7-8700K sits smack-down in-between the Ryzen 5 1600 and 1600X
Single threaded then, Intel has a Turbo 3.0 mode that will allow one application that utilize one core, to clock very high, ergo the single thread performance is rock solid, see above.

As if they didn't knew what was coming...AMD had announced Zen months before release, Intel never thought they could leapfrog +40% IPC over last gen.
If they were scheduled for next year, why are we seeing them next month? Rushed much?
We have no idea what the cooling solution or temps are, the MT performance is off imo.
If all you want is single core performance, I agree.
And I agree we need to wait, this isn't final.
They clearly brought the release forward by a few months, that fact has also been reported on for several months now, I didn't even mention that fact because it was self evident. My response of it being always intended for release at the start of next year was to counter the claim that we wouldn't have seen it for years. It was always in intels schedule as a 6 core i7 in q1 2018, later, they brought it forward by a few months. Hardly an issue, all it says is that the tech was already ready to go....which is the exact opposite of being rushed and releasing unfinished tech.

Cinebench is only one test. I'm more interested in how it games.

How so?
I couldn't care less about fanboyism towards any brand, right now I'm still using an AMD CPU even (Phenom II X4). I buy what fits my needs the most, be it Intel or AMD, it doesn't matter which, as long as it fits my needs.
You should think more about what your "needs" really are. Do they include having competition in the PC CPU market?
Even if Intel offers more performance per dollar (true only in a few cases now), AMD has amazingly reduced the difference to the point where I can accept it in order to help fuel competition. If the market does not reward AMD for their valiant effort in Zen, the company may be forced to give up. How many times can they come from behind in a high-stakes business like this? Then Intel will again quit trying, and several years from now we'll ALL be worse off than if they were still duking it out.
It *isn't* fanboyism to lean towards AMD now. It's common sense.

Something isn't rigth with that multithread score.
8700K can go to 4.3GHz (6 cores) with good cooling. Maybe that HP system isn't good at that.
I'm guessing that it was running at stock, and it was not able to maintain high clocks with all cores active due to TDP limits (remember that turbo core boost is an upper limit, not a guaranteed speed). The single core number is in line with expectations so no reason to distrust the multi-core score.
