remember the 5GHz haswell, 5GHz broadwell on air, the 5GHz skylake on air lawlsHonestly this is just me, but I wouldn't compare this to any CPU right now.
It's one sample of a 8700k vs thousands, that have overclocked, downclocked or just stock mixed in. Stupid to compare right now imo.
wasnt that ice lake?No news about Z390 then.
Schrodinger's CPU. Simultaneously Coffee Lake and Icelake.wasnt that ice lake?

I don't need this. I don't need this.
So 40 PCIE lanes?
No news about Z390 then.
That slide kinda confirms Oct 5 for release. Although it seems certain anyhow.
Wonder when more leaks will occur, must be in retailers hands by now.
Pricing as expected. Not 400$ or 500$.
What was the $/1000 units on the 7700k? I can't imagine retailers will stock their shelves with these and not try to get something back to cover logistics.
350. Its no different as usual when a product gets replaced.
So evil greedy Intel applied a 2.57% price increase.
I was getting excited to do an 8700k build until I looked at the DDR4 prices...
@Juangra: admittedly the 1800x is an overpriced product and pointless since the rest of the R7s can o/c. Once o/CD, the R7s have a higher clock for about the same price as the 8700.
Ah correction on the 8700 clocks. I didn't have info on the hex boost.
Thought this was an interesting comparison:
http://cpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/Intel-Core-i7-8700K-vs-AMD-Ryzen-5-1600X/3937vs3920
For the 8700k, 6/12 performance is 2x times quad core performance. For the 1600x, 6/12 performance is 2.2x quad core performance. HT seems more effective on the Ryzen.
I wonder where are the usual suspects that quoted pre-order prices from the UK and converted to USD now.
I'm right there with you, clocks have hit a ceiling anywayAs someone who wants to run a small, clean, quiet ITX machine, maybe it's finally time I stopped buying overclockable chips and just got the 8700 regular. On paper the difference is almost nothing, right?
Love to see a benchmark of the 2 vs each other.
Did CFL take a small icp hit? Even Intel slides sat "32% increase here, 45% increase there vs 7th gen" Not one had a 50% increase.
