Mainstream 6 core CoffeeLake leaked

[Misanthrope]

Considering the final one will probably reach 4ghz base and 5ghz overclocks it probably will one over the 1600 but at like double the fucking price.

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

This is probably deliberate. So many factors influence a GB result that they can blame anything on inconsistency. Whereas a CB result would spit out 1 number and be a more useful metric for comparison. tldr if your product isn't ready yet don't go using CB.

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.

$199 for the 1600 right now

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

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

Or get the 1600 for the same bang at even less buck + the included cooler is added value as it can perform a mild overclock.

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

I'm guessing 4.0 -> 4.5 Boost with high thermals at stock settings, heat gaining exponentially like 7700k so 5GHz will definitely be requiring a delid.

I was talking specifically between the two.

an overclocked 1600 is basically a slightly overclocked 1600x. And there's people getting to 4GHz on the stock cooler, which is nice (I'm not even going to take it out of the box unless I can slap it onto an AM3+ system)

True but to start with a 1600X is a 1600 where AMD "overclocked" (set the base clock higher) for you, charged you for the privilege and took the cooler away

well, yeah. Saves some trouble for people that don't want to OC or don't know how (or ar afraid to).

Feels kind of weird that they don't bundle the heatsink though

Yes when it is proven to handle that OC anyway... Who knows. Probably because if you supply a 95W cooler with a 65W chip it looks really cool. Whereas a 95W cooler with a 95W chip is considerably hotter.

We're moving quad cores to high end and hexa cores to mainstream, they won't know what hit em.

I said about 5ghz, and Skylake-X reviewers have been able to hit around 5ghz on a consumer 240mm AIO even on the octacore 7820x.

I've been thinking about that actually. Given the construction of the chips, what if the Kaby Lakes on 2066 are just a test run for what they're planning on doing with the Coffee Lake chips that are binned to overclock? As in, the only way to get a CL chip that can overclock is to upgrade to 2066.

ok

 

about 5ghz

 

not happening with consumer market cooling and when Intel is using toothpaste for TIM. Although, if delidded with liquid metal, I'd agree with you.

Except that reviewers have managed to get Skylake-X to around 5ghz on 240mm AIOs. The TIM never was the problem and it doesn't appear to be much of an issue with Skylake-X seeing as a 240mm AIO is capable of getting a 7820x to near 5ghz.

ok, marked as informational

 

you got me there, we'll see though

[PocketNerd]

So is this going to be an i7 variant Coffee-Lake or i5?

Really determines what the significance of this is.

i7 I would assume.

[juri-han]

every skylake-x review I've read said once you go past 4.5 you start to see 100c .... now for coffee lake leaked benchmarks (not to mention geekbench in general) are pretty much worthless, didn't they early ES of the 1800x run at like 2.15? 

 

i expect adding 2 cores will drop the speed down but you will also get a small 200hz bump from kaby, my best guess would be a max OC around 4.6-4.8 with legit cooling maybe 5 on liquid ... thats if they do it right and dont cheap out or rush it like they did skylake-x

What in your eyes is "consumer market cooling"?

sub 100-200$ or something easily obtainable by the general public

 

i mean he's right the 240mm one if it does 4.9ghz.. is a consumer one (which would mean im wrong)

I don't even need a new processor whatsoever, and now I'm thinking about it just because I want to throw one of these bad boys in a custom loop.

No 5Ghz, not impressed. Also, more lanes please for more NVMe drives.
