Intel's Skylake Core I7 6700K has been a wild ride and at times we would look up and dawn was making its first little crack before we realized it. We benchmarked the i7 6700K so hard the bench hit back and we may well need plastic surgery on our gluteus M...
Fastest CPU we've tested, outside of much pricier Extreme Edition chips, Simplified overclocking options, Chipset delivers more PCI Express wiggle room for super-fast storage
In single-threaded tasks, not substantively faster in our testing than previous-generation chips, Requires a new motherboard, Slightly higher TDP than its year-old Haswell “Devil's Canyon” counterpart
Intel's first 6th-Generation (“Skylake”) CPU delivers a decent performance boost over last year's Devil's Canyon chip, while supporting both DDR3 and DDR4 memory. All good, but the extra PCIe lanes that come with the supporting Z170 chipset may be the bi...

performance, power consumption, overclocking, DDR4 support
Intel made its tick-tock in 4 month and launched Broadwell followed by Skylake. The former was just the transition to 14nm while the latter brought a new architecture, support for DDR4 and better overclocking capabilities.Broadwell is similar to Haswell b...

Skylake offers improved efficiency and overclocking over Haswell while the new Z170 chipset tops the Z97 with more USB 3.0/PCIe 3.0 lanes, PCIe 3.0 storage support and Intel RST.
The Core i76700K is generally no faster than the i74790K, which will make it difficult to coax purchases out Haswell and Ivy Bridge owners. Availability is rumored to be limited.
Good performance, overclocks well, Z170 platform offers new features.
Not much faster than Haswell, still quadcore, no heatsink included, needs new motherboard and RAM

14nm goodness, It's a bit faster, Intel has opened up the overclocking
It's not a lot faster, Still just four cores, Intel's product strategy has gone walkies
Its performance gains may be modest, but the Core i7-6700K is definitely exciting on the overclocking front...

This entire review was done with a retail sample of the 6700K, which gives me hope that CPUs in the channel will overclock and perform the same as mine. I almost hesitate to say it, but Skylake has me as excited as Sandy Bridge had me almost half a deca...
Abstract: These days there are basically two different groups of customers who demand lots of processing power: content creators and gamers, while this 2D performance comparison is targeting content creators. After having had a look at the following pages you'll ha...
Now that the new 7th generation Intel Core i7-7700K has been tested against the previous 6th generation Intel Core i7-6700K at the same clock speeds (4.5GHz), I have come to my overall conclusion. There is no actual performance increase on the IPC and asi...
Totalling up the price reveals some interesting insights as to whether the Genome II is good value in terms of raw components. Its 360mm radaitor AIO coolers - the Captain 360 and Captain 360 EX retail for around £110 and decent PCI-E riser cables can cos...
