i7 6700K Transistor Count?

I'm doing an investigation for school and need to know the transistor count of Intel's i7 6700K. I've looked all over the for over an hour but can't find anything. If anyone in the LTT community could help me find that information, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I actually couldn't underclock my 5 year old GPU to make it as slow as a next-gen console.

Thanks! :D

For some reason I didn't see that there when I checked...

Does this mean 1.75 Billion per Core or in generall?

Over the entire die.

That's probably a total of all four cores, the iGPU, the IMC, the cache… everything that's on the chip.

 

It still sounds like a lot, but compare that to GP102 (the Titan XP) with 12 billion transistors.
