The R3 2200G offers highly competitive performance at its price and, ultimately, really has no immediate competition. At $100, the CPU offers 78-85% of the performance of the R5 2400G at 58% of the price. Not bad at all. We can strongly recommend the R3 2...

The Core i5-8600K leverages its extra two cores to great effect in threaded workloads, offering a substantial boost over its predecessor while aggressive Turbo Boost bins ensure great performance in lightly-threaded workloads. An easy overclocking exp...
I like the Core i7 8700k, yet I tend to like the Core i5 8600k even better if you look at it from a gaming perspective versus value. Now I know value is a hard thing to find with an Intel processor considering the overall platform costs have to be added i...
While Intel has again launched another processor with little to no gains in IPC, these new Coffee Lake CPUs do seem to have a bit more bark when it comes to overclocking than several of its predecessors. We are actually getting what Intel promised years a...
Abstract: Early in 2017, Intel released their brand new Kaby Lake platform, featuring a plethora of CPUs and motherboards. The Kaby Lake platform introduced nothing new over what Skylake and its boards already offered. It was simply part of Intel's yearly refresh a...
