The editors liked
Cross compatibility with Z170 motherboards
Excellent overclocking headroom
Good upgrade path for those still using older CPUs
Great single-threaded performance
Intel Optane technology has astounding potential
HDCP 2.2 and Microsoft PlayReady 3.0 comp
Out the box performance improvement over Skylake
Still a solid overclocking part
If not mindblowing
No MSRP bump over Skylake
The new fastest consumer processor
Higher clock speeds than 6th-gen
Easy overclocking
The editors didn't like
AMD’s Zen architecture is just around the corner and looks promising
Identical performance to the i7-6700K at the same frequencies
Just a basic clock boost compared to Skylake
Runs hotter and consumes more power than the i7-6700K
“The Intel Core i7-77
Not a huge advancement for the enthusiast
Overclocking may trail Skylake (silicon lottery still applies)

Here it comes, the $350 question: should you buy the Core i7 7700K? The answer is not an easy one because while the top-end Kaby Lake processor is the most advanced CPU silicon around it's by no means a must-have component.Realistically I can't recommend...
As we noted in the AMD Ryzen 7 1800X CPU Review, gaming is a mixed bag for AMD. Some titles respond well to the new architecture, while most others still require optimization of some sort. Where those optimizations will focus remains a question mark...
