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

I had to take a replacement for a broken i7-6700k (unsuccessful scalping procedure at home) Previous 6700k was bought 1.5 years ago OEM version. Standing underwater Corsair H115i. For tests in overclocking, I took the frequency of 4.9 GHz, the benchmarks passed with a bang, it hung on the link, the link stably took 4.8 GHz. Got a good copy. In home mode, I stood at 4.5 GHz (the computer almost never turns off). After 1.5 years of use in toys, overheating began in two cores up to 83 degrees (due to thermal paste under the lid). I've seen enough videos about scalping. Decided to try it myself. In the process, the hand slipped, and the tip of the scalpel chipped off the corner of the crystal. As a result, I bought an i7-7700k in the player. It costs without overclocking (4.5 GHz) under the same water, MX-4 paste. In the Intel benchmark, the temperature reached 77 degrees - which is within normal limits. In heavy toys, the average temperature is 57-62 degrees. But one-second jumps in core temperatures up to 73-75 are observed. I did not have such temperatures and jumps at 6700k in the first, probably, 8 months of use. I read the forums - it turns out that all 7700k have such a problem. And it is solved by scalping. They write that the temperatures drop by an average of 15-20 degrees (if the cooling is good.) I'll take scalping in evops. In general, I want to say that the difference between 6700k and 7700k is not significant. 3-5 percent performance. which can be offset by overclocking 6700k. i7-7700k good percent. It makes sense to upgrade to it within socket 1151(v1) from junior models of the 6th and 7th line of Intel. There is no point in upgrading from the 6700k or buying it now if you want to build a new platform. For this money, which can be used to build a platform on the i7-7700k, it's better to build on the z370 + i5-8600k.
