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)

According to the comparison results in most games we can see a slight difference in the results between the processors AMD Ryzen 7 1800X and Intel Core i7-7700K. No surprises in the form of AMD is no advantage, except for CPU tests 3DMark. In real Core i7...
Well, the Ryzen 7 launch has a surprising amount of excitement and drama mixed together with the impressive numbers but with memory issues and game performance causing very polarized opinions on social media and on websites like Reddit. AMD fans even...
When we tested the Core i3-7100, we concluded that the new Kaby Lake architecture brings no significant performance gain over the former one, Skylake. The only real performance improvement, according to Intel, is on 4K video playback.However, if you must...
Well, I set out to take a more in-depth look at gaming performance between the two similarly priced CPUs compared to the lowly three games tested in our CPU reviews and I can say without a doubt that I did that. I spent two days getting games download...

Man, there is just so much to take in with this launch. I've gone through the testing and even though I have to follow up (hopefully) later on today when our 1700 comes in with its performance. I can say that testing Ryzen as a whole has been a roller...

While your brand new Core i7-7700K may not be up to the pinnacle of 5GHz core clock and 3600MHz RAM clock like we have seen on our "golden" CPU, there are certainly some things you can do in order to get there. First and foremost is to back off RAM clock...

Fastest CPU available, Hardware support for HDR and 4K streaming, Modest overclocking improvements
Bottom Line, Intel's Kaby Lake–based Core i7-7700K is the fastest mainline consumer processor available, and it comes with support for 4K and HDR, It just may not be the best value for Skylake users given its modest speed improvements
