Higher stock clocks than the Core i7-6700 at same TDP, Better overclocking headroom, Intel Optane support, VP9 decoding and 4K HEVC 10-bit encode/decode, Lots of Z270 motherboard choices
Only a slight performance boost because of increased clocks
So this is what the three year cadence now looks like. Us being in the 3rd year we are on the optimization phase. That means with Kaby Lake we are on the same 14nm node that started with Broadwell and on the same architecture as Skylake. What we do get is...
This is what we had to tell you about 7700K overclocking a couple of weeks ago. "Bad" Kaby Lake CPUs are looking to do 4.8GHz at less than 1.3v vCore. "Good" Kaby Lake CPUs are looking to do the magical 5GHz at 1.35v or less. 5GHz looks to be where thes...
Abstract: Intel's Tuesday rollout of 7th-generation Kaby Lake CPU for desktops has met a dubious fanfare of leaked reviews that dismiss the new chip as one huge Core i Yawn. Kaby Lake seems to offer barely any movement forward and when overclocked, apparently gets...
Well ladies and gentlemen there you have it. Intel's latest 7th generation aka Kaby Lake looks at first glance as a small evolution in processing power. Indeed we were a bit intrigued by the fact that there were no logical Instructions Per Clock gains to...

Fastest consumer CPU we've tested, outside of much pricier Extreme Edition chips, Chipset delivers more PCI Express wiggle room for super-fast storage, support for upcoming Intel Optane caching tech, Has hardware support for next-gen high-resolution strea
Details and benefits of Optane tech are still scarce, More or less a minimal uptick over previous-generation "Skylake" i7 chip
Intel's "Kaby Lake" Core i7 flagship is speedy, with hardware support for 4K streaming and HDR for services like Netflix. But performance gains over its previous-generation counterpart are fairly minimal, and our review chip didn't have much overclocking...
Where to start with this one folks? On one hand, we see what I feel is the face of complacency on the part of Intel with not having any real IPC gains in this refined 14nm+ CPU. On the other hand, why would they with no real competition in this segment...
For months we've heard people talking about how Kaby Lake is going to suck and that there is no reason to upgrade to it since it's basically just an updated Skylake processor. We can understand that some people might look at the specifications and minor a...

This is an interesting conclusion to write. On its surface, the Core i7-7700K and the Kaby Lake-S platform have very few advantages over the current shipping versions of Skylake. The processor has no drastic performance improvements over the 6700K and in...

Performance overall lands us around where we’d expect from a new-generation i7 out of Intel: A couple percentage points in games, meaning that owners of the 6700K should probably just stick with that. Even the 4790K – and the 4770K, by extension – will...
