Mainstream 6 core CoffeeLake leaked

[NumLock21]

Intel's mainstream hexacore processor CoffeeLake has been leaked in some benchmarks comparing to the AMD Ryzen 5 1600X which is also a hexacore cpu.

Coffeelake is said to be using the same socket 1151 or probably a new one and will be using Intel's 300 series based chipset, which is rumor to have integrated wifi and USB 3.1 on the Z370, while lower end chipset may or may not have these features.

That's.... surprisingly close for the first iteration of Ryzen comparative to what is essentialy two generations ahead on the Intel side.

Does the amount of ram being used between both CPU's pose a significant advantage over one or the other? Or is 16GB the max supported amount of ram on the Ryzen chip?

OC the Ryzen chip a little and you're pretty much right up there with the Intel chip.

 

Good job AMD! / Intel, stop sucking!

This is an ES so clock speed should be significantly higher.

The Intel CPU is clocked at 3.2ghz, and it will probably overclock to about 5ghz. So the 6-core Coffee lake would be about 55% faster than at stock while the 1600x would be about 10% faster than at stock. That still gives the 6-core Coffee Lake a pretty hefty lead (as expected), and puts it around the multithreaded performance of an R7.

Am I the only one that finds so much annoying how these leaks use useless benchmarks instead of the good and old Cinebench?

Now all they have to do is sell it at 7700K prices or less, and send all quad cores to the 1500x-1600 price range where they belong, HT or not, and the money will keep flowing. 

That wouldn't really be more static than what we've seen in the X99 to X299 transition regarding pricing, and maintains the "we are moar better so you have to give moar moneyz" motto

Intel has already lowered the price of Skylake-X SKUs. I would expect them to be more competitively priced for Coffee Lake... or so I hope. Technically, they can still charge a premium since they'll be ahead in performance. Let's hope the price premium is much narrower this go around.

Looks like quite an early ES sample too.

[outercry]

I don't know if it makes any difference or anything, but it does say; Processor codename: Kaby Lake.

[Taf the Ghost]

It's Geekbench...

 

Also, there's been other samples already cropping up in other tests, I think Sandra had one the other day.

It's probably because of low clock speeds on the Intel side. Note the 3.2 ghz, I would expect a final version to be noticeably higher clocked.

i can feel the B350 confusion coming

I specifically mentioned this, but keep in mind this is essentially comparing a generation one CPU vs a CPU two generations ahead

What I feel people forget is that the 1600X is a current CPU,  we might say a generation one. this i7-87XX is essentially two generations ahead, yet to be released,

If people didn't know before your three posts about it in this thread alone they certainly know now! ?

Probably because it doesn't show anything, haha. It seems to be used as a validation tool.

I think what'll end up killing Intel here would be pricing. Unless Intel figures something out I'm expecting the unlocked 6 core to come out at probably $369-399USD when 6 core R5s sit at something like $219-249.

Its Geekbench though...

Still better than WCCF Tech.

Its worse because its WCCFTech using Geekbench as the source.

[Mooshi]

Oh, finally some actual improvement over Skylake. *slow golf clap*

 

Now try to use something besides used gum for TIM.

Yes.  People...please use Cinebench next time.

I want to see pricing, though I suspect the 1600x would keep the bang for buck prize

there is no way a 6 core will run at over 5ghz with consumer market cooling mate
