JEMC said: Intel claims i7-8700K to be 11% faster than 7700K The slide also confirms that for the first time Intel will introduce quad-core i3 series and six-core i5 series. Both Core i5 and i7 series are to use 6-core configuration, although the i5 will not support Hyperthreading.
Now we ony have to wait and see if those single-thread numbers are real or not, and how much of that may come from higher frequencies. |
10% perf increase in single threaded is pretty good, but in what time frame? When is these processors being relaesed? I'm interested in an i7-8600K. These extra threads are youthless, 6 cores is more than enuff for gaming and even have a browser and other programs running in the background.
