Better Power Consumption than Skylake, Very Reasonable Price, Excellent Single-threaded Performance
Very little performance advantage over the Core i7 7700K, More expensive platform than the similar perfoming Core i7 7700K
Intel has obviously put some serious work into optimizing their 14 nm process. Kaby Lake isn't a massive jump from Skylake, however it does offer higher speeds and lower power consumption. Both are gladly welcome.The Core i7 7740X preformed excellent in o...
So now that we have run through the X299 and Core X features and taken a look at the performance of the i9-7900X and the i7-7740X, where does everything land. Well first off, let me say right out of the hole that you have to keep in mind that X299 and...

Strong Performance, Good Overclockers, Feature Packed Platform, Fastest Desktop Processors To Date
Differing PCIe Lane Configurations May Cause Confusion, Pricing May Change When ThreadRipper Arrives
The Intel Core i9-7900X is easily the most powerful desktop processor we have tested to date. Its combination of 10-cores, with relatively high clocks, and larger L2 cache propel it into the lead in all of the multi-threaded benchmarks. The Core i7-7900X'...
The 7740X is a fun and relatively affordable CPU for the X299 platform. It will let you save for another year to buy Intel's 18 core behemoth, and then you can sell it to someone else who just saved enough for an X299 motherboard. However, most people don...

For the desktop PC gamer, the higher TDP X models are still the go-to for gaming and general performance though. They're a little faster, and a little more expensive, but you get what you pay for. However, if heat and power are a big concern to you, and t...

I can see the Ryzen 5 2600 and the 2600X fast becoming the most popular chips of the second generation Ryzen launch. They're fast, they're affordable, and they're easy to keep cool and overclock. I mean, if you're just doing a massive amount of rendering...

Which processor now offers the most bang of your buck varies per price segment. If you have a very small budget, in our opinion it is best to find an Intel Pentium G4560, which, given its higher availability, is less of a challenge than it was a few month...
