I wanted to 110 percent completely hate cabbie Lake I really did I mean there's no IPC gains at all IHS is still freaking glued to the dye BCB is still nice and thin and weak and then this happened 5 gigahertz on air in terrible ambient conditions so let's take a look at all the ins and outs of Intel's Mui 570 600 K and i7 7700 K welcome back to tech city and I get it guys I'll run those benchmarks for you ASAP so here we are at another release and this time around it's ins there are even more negatives to talk about them last time and I'll get those negatives out the way first since they are the most glaringly obvious no IPC games like at all seriously this thing was virtually identical to skylake so identical that I'd even dare say it's a new architecture at all just a refresh with better yields which is to be expected from maturity of the 14 nanometer fabrication though it does seem like it has a thicker PCB this time around there disappointingly enough they're still gluing the integrated heat spreader to the die and what this means is bad temps also the pricing of these CPUs are relatively the same to skylake sixty six hundred and sixty seven hundred K CPUs so pretty much a year down the toilet and there are basically only a few little features added to this CPU which I'll talk about later and if you have a z170 you can snap one of these in and they'll work with the new cabbie lake CPUs and there are only a few minor features added to this CPU which I'll talk a little bit about later and it basically if you have a z1 17 that you can snap in a cab you like CPU and you should be good to go since they're both 1151 sockets so you can get a d1 70 for cheap then you certainly should anyway lackluster gains from this architecture is the biggest thing here now let's talk about the surprisingly positive stuff new features on cabbie Lake include native support for Intel's obtain flash-based storage and there is also official support for hdcp 2.2 and 4k HEV c10 bit encoding and decoding support there for enthusiasts there is really only one thing that is positive about cabby Lake and that is the huge overclock and on air too and what I consider pretty bad conditions I mean 30-degree ambience at five burgers on an air cooler is something to be impressed by and if you D lid that I'm sure you could go higher this sample here went up to ninety degrees Celsius in these conditions while running a Cinebench run though overall it looks like with cabbie leg you can probably expect bigger overclocks in general as opposed to skylake and i think this is the only saving grace for the 7600 K and 7700 case CPUs the fact that you can get these things to five gigahertz stable means that enthusiasts can pick up one of these chips and derive their performance gains which would usually be expected from a three C improvements instead from overclocking keep in mind however I could have a cherry-pick sample here there from what I've seen it seems like I'm not the only one here and higher overclocks across the board is a thing also the power consumption differences really look like they were gained from the refinement as well now another improbably the last positive with can be lake over sky lake is that this architecture is more beginner-friendly as I would call it meaning that out of the box this thing with my Knock shoe au 14s cooler went all the way up to 4.2 gigahertz without me even touching a thing that's well above its advertised speeds and also notice this on my six core i7 6100 k2 so it seems like Intel are tapping into the auto boost function features that have been seen hitting the GPU market hard as of recent so in other words if you get one of these CPUs and a decent cooler and a Z 270 motherboard then you should have a good experience with decent speeds out of the box and also on Cabul eight Intel have improved the performance of the eye GPU with the scores being up over the previous generation of skylake CPUs and even though there was a significant improvement it is still far from gaming at decent settings on the latest titles though I could imagine desk minis for travelers taking advantage of these gains for those easy to play multiplayer titles which actually ran quite well on csgo for example so there it is disappointing release for enthusiasts as the gains weren't really there from the architecture though until have gone with the refinement played this generation which at least did work out for what I had on my test bench though do remember that this is still the Silicon Lottery and you may even get a chip that might not even overclock as high as some skylake CPUs for example though on average you should expect high overclocks I would guess to make 400 megahertz on average and lastly I guess another good thing to come out of this is that it means that Intel has to perform in the next generation of CPUs as they have no more outs other than bra architecture games and of course the Zen is coming which has some big improvements of its own anyway if you liked this review them be sure to hit that like button and let me know in the comment section below what do you think about the cabby lake lineup with CPUs we'd love to hear your thoughts and opinions as always and I'll catch you in another tech video very soon peace out for now bye to these gains for those easy to play multi tile players I am sweating in this review because it's like 32 degrees so my gods repeat after me I love no IPC gains and I love higher prices yep yep
