Review: Core i5 7640X
In this review we'll show you the performance the 242 USD quad core Core i5 7640X from Intel offers. This 242 USD Kaby Lake-X processor is the the most affordable one for the X299 platform. But without hyper-threading / SMT how will it perform?

Don't know where your head was at on this line of procs Intel. Not really better than an OC'ed i5 7600k, and the entry price for X299 is not worth it IMHO. Especially with no quad channel memory.

Seems to me this CPU simply allows ready-built system etailers to advertise the X299 entry level rigs at $100 lower prices which amounts to ~10%. 'powered by Intel X299 X-treme performance' etc...and it's not as if it's underpowered for the RX560 or 1050 it'll typically get teamed up with at the relatively low advertised prices. Everything else inside the system may be OEM and cheap as f@ck, but the X299 chipset is just that.
