Said to launch in about 6 months and we just had Coffee lake launch just almost 2 months ago the lists of new cpu's have been leaked. This is bad news bears for anyone who is buying the 8700K

Come on...

 

It's still a very very good cpu... Like if you cry every time somethings better arrive on the market, you will keep crying all your life

 

It's not like if the CPU is coming in 1 month, it will probably be there in like 6-12 months.

 

Nothing to worry about enjoy your 8700K

I have not seen anything that it will be compatible with the Z370 platform so

And you knew that back when the Z390 announcement happened.

And let me guess...

 

It'll still be socket 1151, BUT Z370 chipsets won't support it, so you'll need a "new" Z470 board.

Still its bullshit intel is doing this. They are in panic mode from ryzen and pumping out new cpu's to steal back the market and they are doing some bullshit practices and really is pissing me off. Im rn using a amd 2 core E300 and i hate amd, im wanting to go to Intel but they are starting to piss me off. They are not caring about the consumer but their profits and market share

Name one company that cares more about the consumer than their profit.
