Amazon Leaks New Intel CPUs

[Crunchy Dragon]

Amazon has reportedly leaked new Intel CPUs. Current indication suggests these are on the Z370 platform and Coffee Lake based chips.

Quote

Several new Intel Coffee Lake processors from the Celeron and Pentium Gold line have leaked on Amazon. These dual-core parts, some of which have hyperthreading, are meant to compete in the sub-$100 price bracket.

Interesting, wonder how they'll perform against AMD's low budget offerings.

Quote

The Celeron G series are dual-core parts that lack hyperthreading, while the Pentium Gold series has it.

Going into specifics, according to Amazon, the Celeron G4900 runs at 3.1GHz, while the G4920 runs at 3.2GHz. The relation is similar for the Pentium Gold G5500 and the G5600, which runs at 3.8GHz and 3.9GHz, respectively. All of these parts are listed with a 54W TDP. Stacked up against AMD, these parts will compete below the lowest-end Ryzen 3 CPU with integrated graphics

Quote

Intel’s product lineup has become increasingly scattered due to overlapping product families and branding nomenclature. Intel’s 8th-gen CPUs already span three product families: Coffee Lake, Kaby Lake R, and Kaby Lake G. There are rumors that certain 10nm Cannon Lake parts will also be branded as 8th-gen. We know that at least two of such parts are currently in production.

So Intel is supposedly releasing Cannon Lake chips under Coffee Lake branding. Wonder if this means we'll see Cannon Lake any time soon or if Intel will pass them off as Coffee Lake as long as they can.

 

Still, a pretty interesting news topic. Wonder when Intel will physically patch Meltdown/Spectre. Another interesting thing is how Amazon of all companies leaked this before another corporation such as a news outlet did.

Yeah anytime they want to release those affordable boards though, that'd be great. #kthnxbye

Nah. Fuck the people that can't afford Intel's products, they don't deserve them.

 

 

 

-Intel

 

Probably.

They literally bought all the boards themselves and use them for skeet shooting.

Intel never sold anything as Coffee Lake. The consumer name is 8th gen CPUs. I mind less if the sell what would be next gen as a current gen number. It is worse going the other way.

Let them build Ryzen.

What's this then? https://ark.intel.com/products/codename/97787/Coffee-Lake

[ARikozuM]

Aren't the octacores coming 4Q18? 

[Crosseyed Sniper]

I'm waiting on those high-end INTEL desktop CPUs coming in July.

[Misanthrope]

Still no new mobos still? It's been what 5 months now or so?

 

I mean sure you can get a cheap z370 but come on

They usually come a quarter later, so we should see them late March or early April.

but r3 is 4c/4t so should perform better and they are unlocked.

Look at any of the consumer marketing. It doesn't use the term Coffee Lake. It's all Intel 8th gen. That was the point. We as enthusiasts know there is an architecture generation called Coffee Lake, but it isn't a marketing name.

Also, the R3 lineup for the 2000 series has been reduced. The only R3 in the 2000 series is the budget APU.

 

I'm glad the 4c/8t R5s are gone with the 2000 series (the 1400 and 1500X didn't really make much sense).

Theoretically, but IIRC the Core i3-8350K outperformed Ryzen 3.

isn't that just a rebadged 7600k ? cause i3's are now quad cores with no HT which means the r3's should lose out to them by default.

Was it? I've lost track of all the chips Intel rebadged. I am still impressed with Coffee Lake's performance boost over Ryzen, now all we need are those freaking budget boards....

Yeah since i5's are now 6/6, i3's are 4/4 (still don't know why they skipped 4/8 but w/e) but we all know coffee lake is a refreshed kaby lake with 2 extra cores

[TopHatProductions115]

I'll be waiting for a full comparison of these new(er) Intel chips with AMD's Ryzen+ refresh...

Until then, peace.

Isn't that coming in April? I forget the details that were leaked/released.

[TacoSenpai]

Just wondering does anyone actually use a dual core anymore as their daily driver?

The 8350K costs wayy more than the current gen Ryzen 3 (R3 2200G is $99 USD) . So of course it should outperform it.

 

The 8350K is basically almost Ryzen 5 pricing territory.

lots of laptop users.

The 2000 series has basically been launched. It's got a mixture of Summit Ridge (12nm Ryzen + Improved IMC + DDR4-2933) and Raven Ridge (14nm Ryzen APUs + Improved IMC + DDR4-2933).

 

The current lineup is as follows:

Ryzen 3 2200G - $99 USD (4C/4T Vega 8)

Ryzen 5 2400G - $169 USD (4C/8T Vega 11)

 

CPUs to be officially announced:

Ryzen 5 2600 - 6C/12T

Ryzen 5 2600X - 6C/12T

Ryzen 7 2700 - 8C/16T

Ryzen 7 2700X - 8C/16T

 

And no there won't be a 2800X and you can take that to the bank .

Coffee Lake i3 arguably follows where previous gen i5 were, but it isn't just a rebadge. Believe Coffee Lake is on 14nm++ process, where Kaby Lake was 14nm+. Doesn't make a big difference to most, but overclockers could squeeze some more MHz out on average.

Need mire plus signs after that. intel's been on 14nm before skylake i believe

[Energycore]

So excited to use $60 CPUs on $120 motherboards.

Think Broadwell was the first, but they didn't significantly change the process between that and Skylake so I think both of those are classed as 14nm (no +). I never know if it was the tick or tock, but Broadwell was the process change, and Skylake was the architecture change, then it all fell apart. Arguably Kaby Lake was a minor process step, but so was Coffee Lake.
