Review on Processor Intel Core i7-7700 LGA1151, 4 x 3600 MHz, OEM by Mateusz Majchrzak ᠌

Revainrating 1 out of 5

The product is worse than ever, disappointed with the purchase.

Windows 8.1 refused to ate after learning about the new processor. The custom patch corrects the situation, but the limitation is absolutely artificial. Before that, there was an i7 2600k at a frequency of 4.7 GHz. Cooling Thermalright silver arrow sb-e with three ty-143. This is one of the most productive coolers and one of the most powerful fans. RPM up to 2700, 14 cm. Thermal grease mx-4. Corsair rm1000i power supply, asus z170 pro gaming mother. The voltage is about 1.27 volts. Frequency 4.8, linx 0.6.4 without avx. About 85 degrees at the hottest core, while the coldest has a temperature of 8-12 degrees lower. Power is about 95-98 watts. Frequency 4.4 GHz, the same 1.27 volts, linx 0.6.5, temperature 89, power about 103-105 watts in aida64. The engineering 2600k of retail stepping heated up less with heat dissipation one and a half times greater at a frequency of 4.7 GHz with avx. Considering that the native frequencies are 3.4 and 4.2 for 2600k and 7700k, we get that kaby lake overclocks much worse due to the poor thermal interface under the lid. It is not necessary to claim that people have an insufficient cooling system. The difference in core temperatures is terrible. Sudden temperature fluctuations on the desktop are annoying when all of a sudden three fans roar up to 2700 rpm. I would not buy it, but the 2600k engineer began to degrade, and I wanted to try out the gtx 1070 in pci-e 3.0. As a result, I did not notice much difference in games. Intel marketers are insolent Illuminati hucksters, making people lose their warranty and break expensive stones. Particularly pleased with the official statement that these processors cannot be overclocked. But in server processors they still put solder, because in the server market they are hit on the ears with a dollar and class actions for chewing gum under a heatspreader. And only in consumer goods you can shove dirt instead of solder, because all the same, loyal fans will passionately praise Intel and call all those who disagree crooked.

Pros
  • Powerful built-in video card, even allows you to play BF4. Working with fast ddr4 modules. The best processor for gaming in 2022, without any reservations. Ryzen is good, but it either costs more or drains in games. In prof. ryzen tasks are definitely better, however.
Cons
  • Difficulties when working with Microsoft operating systems other than 10. Unexpected bursts of temperature up to 70-77 degrees. Bad thermal paste under the cover. +3% performance compared to previous generations. High price for all the same 4 cores and 8 MB of cache.

Some pros: Not much better than playing battle royale Some cons: Too overpriced in terms of production
