Anything 4.5+ will be already quite enough.Real question is will the 8700K do 5.0, all cores, on air/AIO water.

No.
KBL 7700Ks do 5.0 without even trying. 500Mhz per core/single thread diff is a significant drop IMO.
And insignificant difference in real life usage.
Lol for anyone. There're enough youtube videos showing a couple frames difference past 4.5 in games. However the temps and power consumption rise quite fast. Be realistic and not just cause "duh, moar Hz" junkie. Hz is a brute force and not always the best way to improve performance.For you, yes.
We'll have to see what the IPC gains are. Hopefully significant.
patently false. Any program will notice a scale-able difference especially single thread. Regular OS, browsing, PDFs, Office, Loadings, and so on. I notice a very tangible difference between my 4.2GHz 1650v3 vs my current SOL 4.8GHz 6700K. Especially in gaming. My NS2 and War Thunder minimum FPS is significantly hit. Both games are single thread and I still can't maintain 120FPS on the 4.8GHz 6700K. Also browsing is noticeably faster too and general snappiness since that is all single thread limited.And insignificant difference in real life usage.
no other arch changes in KBY to CFL? I havent been able to keep up with this arch...plus i dont recall too much being discussed yet either.The only "IPC" gains would be from 12MB cache vs 8MB cache.

yea i see just chipset changes for some reason i thought CFL had a few IPC changes but was wrong. I wish there was info on Ice lake since its onlty a year or so out :/SKL, KBL, CFL and CNL are identical if we exclude the IGP. Any changes are just bugfixes and clock optimizations etc on different processes (14, 14+, 14++, 10.). The first new uarch comes with ICL on 10nm+.
Second this question. I moved from a dying 4790k to a 7600k, and while the 7600k is a lovely little i5, I regret moving to an i5. A 7700k wouldn't be enough to get me to upgrade, but if the 6c/12t 8700k will drop into an LGA1151 Z270... well that would change things a bit.So has it been confirmed these Coffee Lakes will be compatible with Z270 motherboards? I'm hoping I can simply swap out my dusty ol' 7700k for a shiny new 8700k . If I need a new mobo, though, I won't bother.
1.415v, Isn't that voltage quite high? Wrong reading?
Wrong reading, just a simple auto overclock, 14nm++ allowing higher voltage etc. Many options at this stage. But wrong readings is the first likely option to begin with.
Performance and clock is all to go by for now. Its not even a QS sample either, so I guess ES1 or ES2 stage.
I just hope Intel don't shoot themselves in the foot by not supporting at least Z270 with Coffee

99.98 * 50 = 4999 MHz. Wonder about that 5000 on the screenshot. And lets put aside how he did 50 multiplier on CPU that supports at most 36.Coffee Lake engineer sample doing 5 GHz:
Note that this ES has a 3.2 GHz base clock, while 8700K is at 3.7 GHz base clock and could deliver even better results.

Also to these who are thinking about 6 cores at 5GHz. 4 cores at 5 GHz means 90 C without delid at was that 140 W? To get the same thermal envelope, 6 core needs 4*5/6 GHz or about 3.8 GHz because lower clock works at lower voltage. Of course a simple math says: 140W*6/4 = 210 W for 5 GHz. Can you cool it? Naw it would be the same hot potato as 7800X, the only difference would be no mesh, and inclusive L3 cache.
Then again normal Skylake doesn't use FIVR, thus it might be much better thermal headroom, especially when they would remove IGP.

Sooo... what the hell, I was expecting higher turbo clocks (at least 4.5Ghz) judging from what -Sweeper_ has been hinting for a while now. 4.3Ghz single and 4Ghz all core is .
Oh well, hopefully it behaves like Kaby and overclocks as much, though I guess delidding is a must at that point
There's an AT mod that says Intel has no IPC advantage and is already going crazy with performance per watt comparisons using this early ES as a base. Ignored all ST scores as well. The leak definitely got him scared, good showing for Coffee Lake it seems.
If I am not misguided those are clocks of current engineering samples.
I expect they'll actually send one of these to Kyle for review.
They won't.
No matter though. I like that Kyle actually buys his own for reviews. At least that way his conclusions won't be sugarcoated.
