The next generation of Intel desktop CPUs is launching in January 2017. Known as Kaby Lake and already in the wild in the mobile space, they represent, on first glance, the diminishing performance uplifts that enthusiasts have now become accustomed to...
Abstract: Intel's new Kaby Lake CPU delivers on the clock speeds the company promised, but the power consumption and thermal characteristics were disappointing based on a leaked sample of the new chip we received and tested weeks ahead of its official launch.The gr...
Abstract: I'm going to start this article off with a simple number: five. Not only is that the number of months it has taken AMD to effectively turn the x86 processor world on its ear, but that's also the number of distinct model families that they've introduced...
Looking back at how things played out over the course of this review, I have no doubt it will be one of the most hotly debated articles that Ive written in the last few months, maybe even the last year. Theres no denying that the Zen architecture has pr...
With very few exceptions, I have to say I am impressed with what Intel has brought to the table with the 7th Generation Core i7 7700K quad core processor. If the rest of the product stack performs as well, Intel should be set up for this generation. The e...

200MHz higher base clock / 300MHz Turbo, Vastly improved overclocking headroom, Hardware decoding support for VP9 and HEVC, AVX offset
Pointless for the vast majority of gamers, unless overclocked, No IPC gains

Up to 4.5 GHz clock speed, 8M cache, 4 cores, 8 threads, overclockable, Intel HD Graphics 630
No huge performance difference
With the amazing performance, the CPU is great for gamers and professionals both. But whom having the 6th gen sky lake CPU should wait for next upgrade as there is no huge performance difference.Intel recently launches its new more powerful processor “Ka...
Best mainstream CPU currently, Improved IGP, Support for Optane
Minor performance improvement over Skylake
Overall, the CPU is the best performer in the high-end segment and we are really excited to see how the competition acts with the release of Ryzen right on the horizon. If you already have a 4790K or a 6700K, it's best to skip this one and wait for Cannon...
Excellent feature set, Lots of connectivity including USB 3.1 Type-A and Type-C, High-end overclocking supported, Integrated Wi-Fi
None
While the larger buying public is unaware of Intel's behind-the-scenes roadmap changes and process technology delays, enthusiasts worry about things like whether Kaby Lake is a pointless stopgap created solely to keep a billion-dollar marketing machine ru...
