But comes in at a cheaper price point
Performance regression in some games and applications
Abstract: It's one of the greatest questions of our time: AMD or Intel? Today, that rivalry has entered a new stage of Cinebench taunting as AMD's 2000-series Threadripper processors, commonly known as Threadripper 2, come to market to compete against Intel's Skyla...

For the desktop PC gamer, the higher TDP X models are still the go-to for gaming and general performance though. They're a little faster, and a little more expensive, but you get what you pay for. However, if heat and power are a big concern to you, and t...

I can see the Ryzen 5 2600 and the 2600X fast becoming the most popular chips of the second generation Ryzen launch. They're fast, they're affordable, and they're easy to keep cool and overclock. I mean, if you're just doing a massive amount of rendering...

Which processor now offers the most bang of your buck varies per price segment. If you have a very small budget, in our opinion it is best to find an Intel Pentium G4560, which, given its higher availability, is less of a challenge than it was a few month...

AMD Ryzen 7 isn't far behind, but comes in at a cheaper price point
Putting final words on the Intel Core i7-7820X processor, it's a solid option with an IPC performance increase, as well as clock speed bump over the previous Broadwell-E processors and if you're looking for a good companion for your X299-A PRIME motherboa...

PricingThe Intel Core i7-7820X LGA 2066 Skylake-X 8-Core 16-Thread Processor is available now for around £520. That's a lot of money, but it's also a lot of CPU. It's a far cry from the £950 flagship Threadripper or the £1000-2000 i9's, but it's still the...
Strong multi-threaded performance, Workstation and productivity applications
Performance regression in some games and applications, Price, Power consumption, Thermal paste
The Skylake-X-based Core i7-7820X offers strong multi-threaded performance and a lower price point than Intel's Broadwell-E equivalent. But we did experience some performance regression in a few game titles and applications. Core i7-7820X delivers the hig...
