Tech fans what's up welcome back once again to the channel now unless you've just been gone or not paying attention intel has finally released the launch dates and all of the new SKUs for their eighth generation of desktop processors that's right so now we finally see the launch of coffee Lake now we all know that cabi lake really sucked and kind of made Intel really look bad for the first time honestly Intel look just really really crappy now will coffee like fix all of these things I really hope that it does now there are some caveats however to this launch you won't be able to use the motherboards that you're using with Cambria Lake whatsoever so you're gonna have to get brand new 370 motherboards which means you know another investment you're not just gonna be able to take your old board and slap this processor on there and that kind of sucks but we've seen this happen many times in the past is they change around the architecture to get us to buy another motherboard with our CPU but these CPUs from what I hear are running very very fast they got nice TDP on them hopefully we're gonna see across the board that coffee lake is just the newest and latest greatest thing from Intel but also something that makes Intel look really good as well so with that said though let's jump right in let's talk about those different SKUs and what hopefully we're gonna see with the new 8th gen processors the six Q's that in devs going to be dropping on us on October 5th will be these at the bottom of the list we have the i3 8100 now this has 4 cores 4 threads a base clock speed of 3.6 gigahertz and absolutely no turbo whatsoever 6 megabytes of level 3 cache it does have a nice low TDP however of 65 watts and hopefully we're gonna see this processor come to market at about 117 dollars on top of that we see the i3 8350 K once again we see four cores four threads a base clock of 4 gigahertz but absolutely no turbo once again 6 megabytes in the level 3 cache and a TDP of 91 watts this one's gonna be coming to market at about a hundred and seventy dollars now as far as the i5 s go and the entry-level i5 will be the i5 8400 six cores six threads a base clock of 2.8 gigahertz one thing to take note of the turbo on this is a little bit different with all the cores we see a turbo of 3.8 gigahertz but with a single core we see four gigahertz nine megabytes of level three cache it has a TDP of 65 watts and a price tag of about a hundred and eighty-two dollars next up in the i-5 lineup is the i-5 8600 this is actually the CPU that I currently have in-house for testing once a game we see six cores six threads a base clock speed of 3.6 gigahertz all cores engaged 4.1 gigahertz one core engaged 4.3 Gertz on the turbo nine megabytes of level 3 cache a TDP of 95 watts and a price of about 260 dollars and the top-of-the-line SKUs we see the i7 8700 a 6 quart 12 threaded processor with a base clock speed of 3.2 a turbo boost with all cores at 4.3 and with a single core at 4.6 gigahertz level 3 cache is at 12 mega bytes and the TDP is 65 watts with a price tag of around three hundred and three dollars and then last up the i7 8700 K between 6 cores 12 threads a base clock speed of 3.7 gigahertz all-court turbo at 4.3 single core turbo at four point seven gigahertz 12 megabytes of level 3 cache TDP at 95 watts and a price tag of around 360 dollars intel says that the i7 8700 K will be their absolute best desktop gaming processor to date offering 25% better frames per second and 45% better multitasking than the previous generation CPUs so that's really really cool it's also the very first time that we've seen Intel have a four core i3 and a six core i5 in terms of sheer gaming these new until six core CPUs have a lot of potential they're gonna do very well in multi-threaded applications they have higher clock speeds much better overclocking potential so I really think the 1600 X is going to find their competition with these new CPUs alright folks so there you have it but I think the biggest question on all of our minds is will Intel redeem themselves after such a crappy a scabby lake launch I mean that was just a disaster in fact I gotta be honest with you folks so far the year of 2017 has been the year of disappointment disaster we've just seen it with all kinds of releases taking forever to come out from both sides from both AMD and from Intel we both see them kind of lagging putting stuff out that's just kind of lackluster I'm really really hoping though that coffee leak will get rid of all those problems and bring Intel back into the limelight with a smile on our faces now I can't actually bring you my test results as of yet but back behind me on this little test bench back here we'll bring a video guys and show you guys what all that we use for our testing and everything for these current tests that are coming out but right now it's looking really nice we've got our 8600 on the board I'm going to get my i7 but what we're seeing so far and what we're hearing though is that the i7 87 or K is really going to be real competitive price-wise to the 1600 X and that's really you know how I do my testing I like doing dollar-for-dollar testing so we'll be testing the 1600 X against Intel's latest i7 8700 K and seeing who the real winner is at the end of the day for your money so what do you guys think are you guys looking forward to coffee like and going yeah hell yeah or are you kind of like going on man I gotta buy another motherboard and that'll again you just like kinda like yeah forget about Intel where's your guys's mindset cuz inquiring minds like mine I want to know so like usual leave a comment down below tell me what you guys think I love to hear your guys opinions because hey I'm here to learn just like you peace
