A nice option for the money, one of the best deals.

There are a few points about the crazyness of coolers and temperature dances. 1) There are two Intel algorithms SpeedStep and SpeedShift. They change the pressure and frequency of the stone depending on the tasks - that is, the frequency drops from 4700 to 800 almost instantly if the percentage is not loaded. That's why the temperature fluctuates (because it's measured instantly and not according to the average), and that's why the cooler goes crazy. 2) In normal motherboards like Maximus X…

Pros
  • Who's warming up there? Set the CBO - silently and coldly. At standard loads, the temperature in the drain is about 40-45 degrees / Voltage per percent is around 1.1V (in idle - about 32-37 degrees). When all 6 cores are set to 4700 GHz, the temperatures in standard tasks are about 50-55 degrees (in idle, the same 37). I tried stress tests, the board itself set the voltage to 1.30-1.32. I tinkered with the power supply, it starts up perfectly at 4700 * all 6 cores when setting 120225V per core. LinX runs without problems, warming up the CPU to a maximum of 88 degrees (there was a peak of 91 degrees when the pump accelerated). This is with ASUS Multicore Enhancement and CPU SVid enabled. Probably 85-90 degrees is a lot, but judging by the horror stories that people described here (someone almost rises to 100) - either the percent is successful, or the asus is friends with the board, or everything together with the CBO allows you not to bathe. In addition, the computer is for tasks, not for stress tests, and in everyday life 50 degrees is more than acceptable. For the sake of curiosity, I tried overclocking with the Asus utility or BIOS - up to 5.2 GHz (a little on the bus (103), the rest is a multiplier, but the voltage is about 1.4V - what for) in sync across 6 cores (without scalping) while maintaining acceptable temperatures (maximus X hero). I don’t know why to a percent, if everything flies anyway.
Cons
  • In the standard mode, by default, the processor frequencies are up to 4.3 GHz, that is, you need to drive a little, or turn it on in turbo mode. (although I don’t know if this is necessary, if everything pulls without brakes anyway). Floating (dramatically changing) frequencies lead to sharply jumping core temperatures, which does not reflect the actual heating of the stone, but affects the operation of fans (monitoring on the board).

I was surprised by the quality for this price.

The CPU does not require powerful overclocking, and it can turbo boost up to 4.3 GHz. Thermal paste is concealed beneath the cover, but no one is sure how long it will remain effective. Quite a sizzling rock. Expensive!

I'm not particularly happy, but basically everything is fine.

The price that is proposed is ten dollars less than the price that was in effect in December of 2022. On the bench, the 7700k produces 12022 units, and the 8700k produces 16274 units. That is, Intel was able to add two cores, all owing to Ryzen, but who would want that? In general, the growth is not particularly substantial in contrast with the 7th generation; yet, it is still 10%))) With its positives being: +2 processor cores and +4 threads ______________ 12 threads and 6 cores, with a…

A great option for this money, one of the best offers.

With advantages: Competitive with the i5 10500, productive 6 cores, 12 streams, and a reasonable frequency of 4300 MHz Pros below: 80 degrees is hot (but presumably because there is limited airflow and the computer is filthy) not being pursued (maybe happily)

Disgusting, I don't recommend it to anyone!

If you look at the line before this one, you'll see that adding two cores or increasing power by fifty percent represents good development. If one considers the market's other options, however, purchasing an I7-8700K would be an exceedingly unprofitable endeavor. The difference between Ryzen 1700 and Ryzen 1600 will not be noticeable in games (unless you are a fan of running the game at a resolution of 720p or higher), but the price difference is significant. And in addition to that, you are…

Pros
  • - Intel has finally shifted, since previously they had been providing the same percentage every year since 2022.
Cons
  • The performance is inferior to that of competing products, but the identical Ryzen 7 1700 costs half as much and produces more in multi-threading. - A significant amount of warmth as a result of an inadequate thermal contact. If Ryzen can be cooled using any cooler that falls between 1000 and 1500, then the I7-8700K need a cooler that falls between 3000 and 10000. - The significance of the scalp. If you don't use a scalp cap, you can't even hope to achieve a frequency that's higher than 4.7. Even with the stock removed, the processor gets really hot. - A price that is exorbitantly expensive. The price of our competitors' products is half of what we charge for the same level of performance. -A chipset developed by Stillborn. The Z390 is currently in the planning stages. - There are insufficient processors. Because Intel was in a rush to release its product, they did not produce a sufficient number of CPUs.

Wonderful quality, one hundred percent satisfied!

8700 and higher cooler Noctua NH-U14S is the thermal paste that was utilized from the cooler that was included in the package. During the Aida64 stress test, I didn't see a temperature above 57 (from 5 to 10 minutes, maybe I'm doing something wrong?), although the temperature during regular use is usually around 30 degrees. The speed of the CPU fans was set to the default mode in the BIOS, which was approximately 1050 revolutions per minute on average; however, since it has been changed to a…

The best purchase in my life, I will definitely buy it again.

I was scared that it would be even hotter, and I don't know why they drive him if he drags everything you want) it gets up to 4.7 miles per hour! After taking I5 3470, you will get incredible sensations. It will not warm up to a temperature higher than 45-50 degrees if everything has been installed correctly and a standard thermal paste has been used. average tormenting him with a Noctua NH-U12S fan for the entirety of day 45 (which has a head for all chores).

  • Huge potential provided that they do not continue to alter the base!
Cons

Satisfied with the product, I recommend it to everyone.

I am really pleased with the performance; when playing games, it is quicker than the Ryzen 1800x, which is the most recent computer I had for a period of two months, so I can say that. Even when they are doing nothing, the temperature sensors can say that it is seventy degrees, but while they are downloading data, it may not bounce over seventy degrees. It is not quite apparent how the temperature sensors function. As soon as I attached the cooler that had a 4-pin fan to the vehicle, the disco…

Pros
  • Six sounds and twelve streams of productivity.
Cons
  • Chipset, price, and thermal interface all come into play.

Reliable purchase, guaranteed to be a good purchase.

I made the decision to scalp the processor as soon as I got it home, which had both negative and positive repercussions: the warranty would no longer be valid, but there would be significant temperature improvements. Now that all of the cores have been overclocked to 4.8 MHz, the temperature is 33–35 degrees Fahrenheit in games that are above 50–52, but I have not observed it in OCCT 63–65. Fractal Design Celsius S36 (standard turntables are replaced to Corsair AF120), Inwin 303 case (not the…

Pros
  • Review on the Intel Core i7-8700K six-core processor, which has good overclocking potential ;) The tests highlight all of the positive aspects of the solution.
Cons
  • When overclocking, the temperature of the thermal paste behind the processor cover is not a comfortable one. It makes no sense to me to buy a computer processor that starts with the letter K if I'm not going to use it.

Valuable purchase, nothing but pluses!

review of the 8700 excluding (k). Excellent stone. Everything that is expected of him is successfully completed "with a bang." I was worried about the intense temperature because other people had written about it in reviews. But no. There are no problems at all. above 65 even under 100% continuous load does not go. Cooler wished to take a juicier one for him at idle 30-32, such as an Assassin II or a comparable model with two fans, etc. The toad, however, pressed its paw on the Adam's apple…

Perfect product for any user!

I didn't feel like dealing with the hassle of overclocking, so I just went ahead and took it without the K index. The transaction was successful to my liking. On top of that, I installed a Thermalright Macho 140 REV tower. A. The temperature ranges from 28 to 33 degrees while it is idling. However, when applications are started, temperature spikes of up to 50–55 degrees Fahrenheit can occur; this is reportedly caused by the fact that the voltage is increasing, etc., etc. I do not know how…

Pros
  • 1. Nimble (6/12 after all) 2. A substantial power cushion for the years to come 3. Good embedded core
Cons
  • 1. A high TDP level 2. Put thermal paste under the cover; nevertheless, I don't think it's all that important for a processor that isn't being overclocked; as a last resort, it will be possible to scalp in the near future.

A reliable product, quality is acceptable.

In general, the processor is of quite high quality. If you do not engage in any activities other than gaming and do not use any apps designed for professionals, then a very acceptable processor. I'm streaming and dragging games at the same time, but I've cranked up the processing speed to a very high level because the cooler won't let me pull it much farther. As a result, I strongly suggest investing in a decent cooling system. Some pros: An outstanding processor for today's games…

Everything in the product suited me, the price is generally perfect.

As a result of the cooling provided by Dark Rock 4, the temperature in LinX did not go higher than 76 degrees, whereas in non-synthetic tests it ranged from 62 to 67 degrees Celsius. The performance boost will be obvious when compared with equivalents of the 6.7 generation; in comparison to the 8700, it will be approximately 10-15%. However, there are just six cores instead of eight. As a result, this is an excellent alternative for an update starting from scratch or upgrading older gear. It is

Pros
  • Core i7-9700: At last, 8 complete cores in one package. Instead of using paste, you should use solder because it has a better influence on temperature indications.
Cons
  • No.

Something of value coming from Intel, to be sure. After the 7700K failed, I had already considered switching to AMD, but unfortunately, the cooler is not compatible with the current configuration, I needed to wait for a special mount that Cryorig sends for free, and the RAM was not on the AMD compatibility list, so I waited for this one and took it (almost for 26K, which is great given the prices of speculators, which were between 35 and 40K at the time of purchase). Up to 4.7 GHz can be…

Pros
  • 6 cores and 12 threads in total. Overclocking
Cons
  • It's too soon for me to tell because I've only been racing for two days. The Z270 cannot work with it since it is incompatible with it.

Apparently, the thermal interface distribution under the lid was in my favor, although this is a gamble. Benefits that vary: The 8700k feedback. After 10 minutes, the highest temperature of the cores in OCCT stabilized at roughly 70 degrees, at a manually selected voltage of 1.25v at a frequency of 4800 MHz for all cores. without scalping. After 15 minutes of warming up, the temperature reaches 75 degrees and the maximum frequency at which all cores remain stable in linX 0.7.0 is 4700 MHz…

A high-quality product, the price corresponds to the quality.

I am not aware of the temperature range that constitutes a normal operating range for this processor. The temperature of my new i7 8700k is 15 degrees hotter when it is under stress than the temperature of my previous i7 930. If you listen to Intel, you are free to heat your home to an unsafe level of ninety degrees. But how much longer will he be able to live in these conditions? Got pros: Excellent performance. My previous Intel Core i7 930 worked reliably for almost eight years, but in order

The quality does not meet expectations, I will not buy any more.

I purchased a CPU based on reviews I read on youtube, which said that it was the best processor for gaming, that it ran cool, and that the thermal paste was superior to that of the 7700K. What can I say, the tests weren't to be trusted. Let's begin with the most crucial issue: The 95 W TDP is announced. This is an absolute, absolute untruth! I decided that was enough and installed DeepCool Gammaxx 300 with TDP 130 - AS IF THERE IS NO THIS COOLER, the percent does not feel it! Since I wasn't…

Pros
  • High performance per core; 6 cores; high frame rates
Cons
  • As hot as a blacksmith's oven; the cost bites; at the smallest acceleration, the heat does not have time to "spread" to the lid and the throttles; demands a cooling system >250W TDP.

I am one hundred percent satisfied with the purchase, I recommend this product to everyone.

It can be overclocked to a frequency of 4.7 GHz and maintain that speed with a multiplier of 47 and a voltage of 1.27. You will, however, require either an effective tower cooler or a water cooling system in order to get rid of the heat. - Unfortunately, it is not compatible with the LGA1151 v1 socket. - The introduction of Ryzen multi-core gave Intel a healthy kick, which led to the creation of this magnificent thing. The lightning-fast pace at which the 8700K was introduced into the series…

Pros
  • - There are six cores and twelve threads total. - Floating frequency ranges from 4.2 GHz when it's not being used to 4.7 GHz when it is. Theoretically, it ought to function at a nominal frequency of 3.7, but in practice, the frequency is typically kept at or above 4.2 due to the characteristics of the Turbo Boost 2.0 technology. - Advanced technology for processes at 14 nm and smaller - At long last, support has been officially announced for DDR4-2666 SDRAM - The ability to unlock the multiplier for the 8700K - A very appealing pricing of $360 for what is essentially a flagship product
Cons
  • - TDP 95 W is an outright fabrication; at maximum load, the power consumption approaches 125 W, and it goes even higher in stress tests. Even with good cooling (Noctua NH-U14S), an unoverclocked CPU can reach temperatures of up to 65 degrees Fahrenheit while under load and approximately 30 degrees Fahrenheit when it is idle because there is not metallized thermal paste under the cover like AMD has. Instead, there is some kind of misunderstanding that causes this. Under pressure The data was captured by Core Temp 12022 and showed that during the LinX 0.7.0A test, the temperature of one of the cores reached 88 degrees Fahrenheit, despite the fact that the room itself was 22 degrees Fahrenheit warmer. Inadequate thermal interface limits the capacity for overclocking.

Overall good, but I expected more, there are disadvantages.

To begin, let me state that the only reason I use a computer is for gaming, and that performing various computations does not in any way pique my interest. I made the decision not too long ago to entirely replace the 4790k operating system with a brand new one. I used memory operating at 3600 MHz, a motherboard with an Aorus Pro 390, and an overclockable variant of processor. Only in Assassins did I observe an improvement in performance, and it turned out that the problem was with a penny. The…

Pros
  • - Consistent performance across all 12 threads and 6 cores - Capable of high overclocking speeds - Installation and configuration went off without a hitch
Cons
  • - Virtually no common sense in the way the power is used for games. - Expensive cost

A valuable purchase, some advantages!

For 24k, I quickly grabbed one OEM copy (10/30/17). I was skeptical that I had actually been able to reserve this stone until recently and worried that the contact center had made another error, as they had in other well-known stores. The acquisition has met my expectations. Prior to that, there was an i5 4670K, and while I didn't see a dramatic increase in game FPS, the image did become smoother and more steady. However, there is a variation in rendering. Along with the 1070 Gaming X and the…

Pros
  • The benefit is what motivates you to purchase this processor in particular. And if you want more specifics, there are at a good frequency 6 cores and 12 threads. Additionally, I see it as a bonus that TDP is 65 and not 95 like it would be with the "K" option.
Cons
  • market dearth No other drawbacks exist, so accept it.
