Review on 💻 Intel Core i7-8700 Desktop Processor: 6 Core, Up to 4.6 GHz, LGA 1151 300 Series, 65W Power Consumption by Adam Kotula ᠌

Review of 8700 (without K). I changed my AMD fx-8320 and saw what a performance boost it gave for my GTX 970. The average fps in Assassin's Creed Origins went up from 50 to 80, a run in the game benchmark gave an increase from 5588 to 9977 on the same settings. In pubg, vidyaha began to hit the FPS ceiling of 144, although before that the FPS did not even reach a hundred. It has become noticeably more comfortable to play, I often noticed before that you don’t change the graphics settings, but the FPS in games remains at the same level. Now the video card is not limited by the processor and gives out its maximum. Even the SSD began to work faster (according to the test results). In games it heats up to 60-65 degrees. But this is because it is not fully loaded. Be sure to try to downvolt and achieve this less heat. For the average user, it makes no sense to take the K modification with overclocking, overclocking to 300-400 MHz will not give as much as the temperature and power consumption increase, a higher level motherboard, water cooling and of course a scalp will be required. And all for the sake of an increase of 5-8%.
