Another Core i7-8700K & Core i5 8600K Review Leaks

Another Core i7-8700K & Core i5 8600K Review Leaks

Another Core i7 8700K review leaks today, this time in Romania. As you guys know, most EU media isn't seeded processors for reviews anymore by Intel (it's like we do not exists to Intel). So when some media then get their hands on some samples, why then abide an embargo right?

So you can't really blame them. This time it is lab501 pushing the results as Monstru posted a review. he makes use of a Gigabyte Aorus motherboard and actually now that i notice it, also uses a Core i5 8600K. The procs do well and puch 5.2 GHz when tweaked (much to what I am seeing here). I'll leave the talking and writing to their article, below some of the benchmarks, courtesy to lab501 of course.

up to 50 % performance increase MY BUNZ :rolleyes:, better off overclocking your current 6th or 7th gen then spending another mini fortune for the 8th gen if you just want a game rig.
Feel bad for anyone that purchased Z270 boards thinking Intel will allow them to upgrade to 8th Gen :oops:
I just switched from i7 2700K to AMD r7 1700 running @ 3.8GHz air cooled now pretty stable and must say happy with my decision. However i must also add that my i7 2700K has served me well over the years and its good to see intel finally moving away from dual-core / quad-core mainstream & high-end processors.

Same performance as 1800x because 25% more cores but compensates with almost 20% clock speed and better IPC so again 8700K is better buy than 1800x for actual prices at moment.


It depends on your use, the 8700K is mostly a gaming CPU, and very little can beat it at that use case.
If you can load up all cores a heavily overclocked I5 8600k can barely compete with the 1700, maybe the 8700k can beat the 1700 in cinebench.
So it depends on what you do with your pc, there is no CPU that is perfect for everything.

The thing that interest me most is the cooler requirements for this CPU, because 5GHz is not easy on a 7700k and it will only be harder on the 8700K unless something drastic has changed.
