Intel launching the Core i7-8086K as a 40th Anniversary part took us by surprise. The processor on paper is a slightly higher binned version of the Core i7-8700K, with a +300 MHz bump on the base frequency and the single core turbo frequency, allowing Int...

There are two ways to evaluate the Core i7-8086K. The first is as a commemorative curio. Intel fans who want to celebrate 40 years of x86 should probably leave theirs sealed in the box for future generations to pick over when silicon becomes a curiosity...

Abstract: Eager to test this new CPU, I picked one up from our local Microcenter on Friday evening, and plugged it into our Coffee Lake CPU testbed, powered by a Gigabyte Z370 Aorus Gaming 7 motherboard (updated to the latest BIOS), let my first pass of automated C...
For now, the 8086K is the best CPU for the Z370 platform, and it's the best overclocking CPU I have seen from Intel. Overclocking is really the strong point of this CPU if you are looking at practicality. You are basically guaranteed a 5GHz OC on all core...

Overclocks like a champ
Benchmark scores equal to Core i7-8700K, Slightly pricier for small speed bump, 5.0GHz boost clock refers to single-core Turbo Boost
If you pick up an Intel Core i7-8086K expecting it to be the fastest Coffee Lake processor ever out of the box, you'll be sorely disappointed. This limited-edition processor performs no better than an Intel Core i7-8700K, so you're better off saving the e...
The end result is probably the one most of us were expecting - yes, you will probably see a marginally higher overclock compared to the Core i7-8700K, but the high price is not worth paying regardless of whether you'll be running the CPU at stock speed or...
Rare moments of 5 GHz operation are exciting, Highest-quality Coffee Lake silicon, A bit of available overclocking headroom, Limited-edition piece of history, Fastest gaming processor
Imperceptible performance gains vs. -8700K at stock settings, No bundled cooler, High price
The 40th-anniversary Core i7-8086K is appealing to collectors due to its limited-edition status. It's also a solid choice if you're on the hunt for the utmost in gaming and overclocking performance (and are willing to pay a hefty premium for it).8/10$425A...
With a 4 GHz base clock frequency and a maximum turbo clock frequency of 5 GHz, the Core i7 8086K is the world's fastest processor for single-threaded applications, or applications that only utilize a limited number of CPU cores. This also means that the...
First consumer Intel CPU at 5GHz, Overclocks to all-core 5GHz easily, Potent Coffee Lake architecture, Limited edition
20 per cent premium over 8700K, No cooler in box
The limited release of the Intel Core i7-8086K is more of a marketing push than real-world benefit over the readily-available Core i7-8700K. Plumbed in with the same frequencies on all but a single core, this new chip is a speed-binned version of the Coff...
