• Reviews around performance (3.40 of 5)

    Intel Core i7-8700K Desktop Processor 6 Cores up to 4.7GHz Turbo Unlocked LGA1151 300 Series 95W

    • The performance blew me away
    • very good performance
    • Awesome processor, overclocked to stable 4.9 I guess we'll see after the patch how performance goes but so far really nice.
    • Spent for the best and got the best performance.
    • Excellent performance
    • Amazing performance and the best competitor to ryzen's 1950x
    • Amazing performance, love the tempature under load
    • Good single core performance
    • Amazing performance
    • a good cpu with strong performance
    • Out of the box, this thing smashes the performance of my 6700k @ 4.72 gHz
    • However, I have been very happy with the performance, as I am getting better performance in almost every game, except the few unoptimized ones, but even those are less than 10% slower with the stock settings, just at stock it has 0 trouble running anything at all
    • Still the best single-threaded performance over Ryzen as of this review.
    • , I have windows 10, updated, I have a great system rig, but I guess intel is not the same performance is bad, is like this is just made for gaming and nothing else, I formatted completely my PC to find out if it was my pc or cpu
    • Very good performance
    • I will not use the factory fan, I think you all know that it does not have a good performance to mount it with this processor, for that we will use a Corsair Hydra H100i
    • , I’m a photographer so Lightroom and Photoshop performance is my concern.
    • I updated my computer and this processor has an amazing performance...
    • OC 5.0GHz Cinebench:1645.Easy overclock and good performance.
    • Strong performance in games and productivity applications
    • amazing performance
    • Great 6 core performance for a bargain price: kicked behind on the 3d mark test
    • Pros:-Outstanding gaming performance.-Just about the fastest single threaded performance you can get.-Over-clocks fairly well w/o deliding
    • Cons:-Low quality thermal paste used to mate the CPU die with the IHS pretty much mandates a delid if you want 5ghz+.-Meltdown and Specter could potentially negatively impact performance of this chip.
    • No performance issues.
    • I cannot give this a good rating because of this, the my main purpose for my rig is for gaming and due to the poor performance of this CPU, my performance in my gaming is suffering
    • I’m over the moon about this cpu the performance is mind boggling and I haven’t been able to make it stutter or hiccup once going through my daily routine
    • Great performance
    • The best CPU in 2017Stable with multy purposeHigh Temperature, needed Good performance CoolerI boughted this in
    • Meltdown and spectre design flaw fixes can degrade the performance by 30%
    • Great CPU, just make sure you have a top level cooler as it does run hot.
    • I've been toying with a Core i5-8600k recently and it doesn't even come close to overclocking as well as
    • 100% a step up from my old skylake as well as it's predecessor
    • We all suffer as we have to wait, and the price is allowed to creep >$60 above release & MSRP.-Forced to buy new motherboard
