The editors liked
5.1GHz is possible with less than 1.4V
Excellent overclocking temperatures
Good iGPU improvements over Skylake
Great single-threaded performance
HDCP 2.2 and Microsoft PlayReady 3.0 compliant
Lower wattage than Skylake clock-for-clock
Intel’s Optane
Out the box performance improvement over Skylake
Still a solid overclocking part
If not mindblowing
No MSRP bump over Skylake
The editors didn't like
Doesn’t try to end stagnation in the CPU sector
Higher frequency results in an increased power draw over the i5-6600K
Performance benefits come entirely from the new Turbo clock
Poor reaction to Zen which provides no reasons at all to rush out and upgr
Not a huge advancement for the enthusiast
Overclocking may trail Skylake (silicon lottery still applies)
Intel's slow cadence of incremental upgrades hasn't done much to distance its products from AMD's. Instead, you could argue that AMD fell behind on its own accord. The Ryzen processors will be launching soon, so it's time for the speculation to begin...

On the face of it, Kaby Lake looked to be arguably one of Intel's most boring processor launches in a long time. The CPUs are effectively Skylake with faster out-of-the-box speeds, thanks to process node optimisation, and an iGPU enhanced for 4K media con...

PricingIntel hasn't officially released any information regarding the i5-7600K's launch price which means it's difficult to analyse the product's value. Saying that, I can speculate based on the company's strategy, market trends and insider sources. Hones...

Abstract: As some additional Core i5 10600K Linux benchmarks for historical perspective, here is a look at how the Core i5 10600K looks in comparison to the Core i5 7600K Skylake, Core i5 4670 Haswell, and Core i5 2500K Sandy Bridge processors on Ubuntu Linux. Ther...

Abstract: This is a comparison we've been wanting to put together for some time. With Computex 2019 out of the way and the full confirmation of 3rd-gen Ryzen, before that hits us here's an updated comparison between the Ryzen 5 1600 and Core i5-7600K. It's time to...

Battling CPUs at $60 is going to be a tough call. Do you throw the best hardware around the chip that money can buy to compare the absolute limits of the hardware under ideal conditions, or do you keep it more reasonable for the price bracket it is intend...

Battlefield V is playable on quad-cores but you can expect frequent frame dips, resulting in less consistent frame rates. For the most part, we've found that the older Core i5-7600K has been hanging in there pretty well with AAA titles released in 2018, b...

The R3 2200G offers highly competitive performance at its price and, ultimately, really has no immediate competition. At $100, the CPU offers 78-85% of the performance of the R5 2400G at 58% of the price. Not bad at all. We can strongly recommend the R3 2...

Abstract: First off my apologies for this review, as it is going to be short and sweet, but will hopefully still have all the data you need in order to see what Intel's new Coffee Lake is all about.Coffee Lake is Intel's "8th Generation" processor family. The i3, i...
