Rumor/Leak 8350k is very close to 7700k in multi-threaded performance

by Hilbert Hagedoorn on: 08/24/2017 05:49 PM | source: | 30 comment(s)

A new leak surfaced onto the web, CPU-Z screenshots of the Core i3 8350K. That 8350K would be the four cores four threaded SKU.

The leaked screenshots shows the 8350k against the 6700k and 7700k in the CPU-Z bench. It shows a lead in single threads but (as our forum aficionado loophole35 described) nipping at the heals in multi as well. Now it is important to note the CPU in question seems to have a slight overclock (BLK is set to 103 netting a 4.113Ghz clock speed) As always with these things keep your salt handy.

Interesting is that is has an unlocked multiplier and sports 1GB of L2 cache (256KB per core) and 8MB of L3 cache, all at a 65W TDP. The CPU-Z results show the Core i3 part at 503.3 points in single-threaded performance, and a more impressive 1,982 points in multi-threaded performance. With four real cores in the I3 range, this might be a terrific overclocker for the money.

1GB L2 cache 256KB per core? How many cores this thing got

i think it's 1MB L2.

So, er, is Intel planning to dump its i7's in favor of i3's...? Somehow, that doesn't seem at all likely. :cool:

The leaked 8700k CPU-Z shots I've seen show almost 1600x multi scoring.

Now this is the old bench so it doesn't compare to the 8350k score above.
1600x

Edit: didn't realize the the above screen shot was so big.

my old i7 4790k 4.6GHZ in cpuz scored 501points for single core performance, multithread performance score is 2534points

My Ryzen 1800x at 3.9Ghz with 3200Mhz Ram scores 447 and 4776 on the latest CPU-Z bench.

I am guessing it does not show the boost frequency for the cpu. As with 6700k and 7700k.

it's still equal to what we always called an i5....except this is Coffee Lake i5 with a i3 sticker.

i3 will be intels quad core processor with Coffee Lake

This "peasant" i3 is faster than my 4.5Ghz overclocked 5820K 474SC & 2775MC (HT:OFF) in 1.80.1.
Im defiantly moving to i7-8700K with delid and WC its going to overclock like crazy.

i3 has no "boost" state.

Its going to cost just like any previous mainstream i7 and defiantly less than 389USD

if Intel sees AMD as actual rival, they will price match Mainstream Ryzen CPUs, if not then at least it will cost somewhat less than last year comparable series, meaning that 8700K will cost for sure 10-20$ less than 7700K
