Intel Core i7 8700K 6-Core Coffee Lake And i5 8400K Spotted in SANDRA

Intels upcoming Core i7 8700K 6-Core Coffee Lake And i5 8400K processors have been spotted in the SiSoft SANDRA database, meaning we have some new numbers to compare.

The scores spotted by hothardware are the Core i7-8700K with its 6 physical cores and 12 threads shows its scores against a Core i7 7700K:

• Processor Arithmetic: 217.98 GOPS (versus 149.99 GOPS)—45 percent increase
• Processor Multi-Media: 658.57 Mpix/s (versus 447.76 Mpix/s)—47 percent increase
• Processor Cryptography: 10.47 GB/s (versus 9.34 GB/s)—12 percent increase
• Scientific Analysis (Single Precision): 61.41 GFLOPS (versus 48.51 GFLOPS)—26 percent increase
• Scientific Analysis (Double Precision): 32.11 GFLOPS (versus 24.40 GFLOPS)—32 percent increase

Then there is the Core i5-8400K, also a 6 physical cores processor but lacking Hyper Threading (compared to a Core i5 7600K). 

• Processor Arithmetic: 145.05 GOPS (103.66 GOPS)—40 percent increase
• Processor Multi-Media: 420.54 Mpix/s (279.69 Mpix/s)—50 percent increase
• Processor Cryptography: 9.78 GB/s (8.45 GB/s)—14 percent increase
• Scientific Analysis (Single Precision): 71.68 GFLOPS (51.38 GFLOPS)—39 percent increase
• Scientific Analysis (Double Precision): 31.35 GFLOPS (26.72 GFLOPS)—17 percent increase

Coffee Lake shows around a 32 percent improvement die top the two extra cores.
