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

The processor, in principle, is good and adequately copes with its task, but I don’t advise you to take it for July 2022, it is too pressed against the wall by the same r5 1600 overclocked by 3.8 MHz. Perhaps suitable for people who do not want to bother with overclocking, and in principle do not know what it is. Has some pros: A worthy solution from intel, it takes out 2022 games for one or two, heat dissipation is 65 watts - any tower can handle it, 4 full cores - 8 threads, which makes it suitable for rendering. Perhaps the main advantage today is the presence of integrated graphics (due to the price, even middle video cards) - you can sit out for a while and play old games at minimum wages. Got cons: Based on the fact that on the LGA1151 the Skylake family has similar parameters, the difference is only 200 MHz, then there is no point in actually switching to it. If 6700 is even 300 cheaper, you should take it. The second and quite important thing is the complete dominance of Ryzen in multi-threading, to which the 7700 loses in benchmarkam (well, in fact) by a wide margin. In games, 2 processors are almost identical, and the result is 6 or more cores, better than 4 and HT. And of course, as in SL, there is no solder under the cover, which is very sad (for 7700k, it's a disaster in general).
