Pros
- Performance. Heat dissipation. Ease of acceleration. Spare for overclocking. Price for 17 years.
Cons
- Now in 2022, 6 cores would be just perfect, but at the time of release in 16 it would be a luxury.

Description of Intel Unlocked Skylake Processor BX80662I76700K
It is lga 1151. 6th Generation Intel Core i7 Processors. Unlocked processor. Ddr4 & ddr3l support. Display resolution up to 4096x2304. Intel turbo boost technology. Compatible with Intel 100 series chipset motherboards, It does not include a fan.
Pros
- Ideal choice for gaming and complex applications: 8 cores, frequency - 3600 MHz, with auto overclocking (10%) - 4000 MHz, with overclocking in turbo mode - 4500 MHz. Support DDR4 2666 MHz. A very powerful processor, high performance in games, with multithreading, you can simultaneously work in AutoCAD, play a game, surf the Internet, watch videos and type text - and all this with minimal processor load - up to 20%. The temperature in stress tests was no more than 50 C (depending on the cooler, I have a Thermaltake Floe Riing RGB 280 dropsy with 3 14 cm fans). It overclocks to a maximum of 32% - 4752 MHz and at the same time all applications work stably (depends on the motherboard, I have an ASUS Rampage 6 APEX overclocking mother). It is possible to overclock to 5GHz, but the stability of work quickly drops, the temperature rises sharply to 80C.
Cons
- 28 PCI-Express lines, be careful when buying (marketers do not write the number of supported processor lines in the specifications), you can connect only one video card in 16x mode and only 1 M.2 solid-state drive in 4x mode (1 PCI- Express on supported motherboards). To connect several video cards in SLI or 2way-SLI, as well as more M.2 drives, you need 44 lines, and this is another percentage - at least i9-7900x. Strange turbo mode, sometimes when you start some applications, the processor does not automatically accelerate to 3.6 or 3.9 GHz, but operates at a frequency of 1.2 GHz, as a result of which the application does not open as quickly as it should, turbo mode is not always useful, sometimes it is better disabled, it can be disabled in the BIOS. The cost of the processor, but the price justifies its performance.
Pros
- Powerful Moderately cold Nimble - 12 threads Overclocked to 4 GHz
Cons
- Well, as if buying a stone, you understand its characteristics))) Does it work or not =D
Pros
- 7820x - Performance, big head start.
Cons
- Boost 3.0 work. Heat dissipation.
Pros
- colder than 7700k, with a typical chase temperature of 4.6-4.9
Cons
- under wraps
Pros
- When I built my computer three years ago, I used a Z170 motherboard with an i3 6100 processor. Over the course of time, I upgraded the SSDs to the highest-end models, installed a standard video card, and then moved on to the processor. When I decided to purchase a Z170 from tic-tac, the idea of an i7 7700K quickly occurred to me, and I immediately did the math. However, beginning in the year 2022, there have been speculations circulating concerning Coffee Lake. First, that there will be a total of six cores. Then, that it will be compatible with the Socket 1151, much like the Z170 chipset on my computer. Then, there will be no compatibility with the 100-200 series, but the form factor will be maintained as it is. Then, what may have happened is that the BIOS was simply eaten, as some manufacturers may have said. Then, it was announced that there would be backward compatibility, but that older chipsets could only support a maximum of four cores. Etc. In the summer of 2022, after being worn down by rumors and my own avarice as well as being a victim of marketers, I finally began to comprehend that Coffee Lake would be, but not for my motherboard. It dashed so many of my hopes all at once, and I felt like crying. And then I recalled my student ambition to work on the HEDT platform, which had recently been upgraded over the previous summer to the Kaby Lake level. It was discovered that a 6-core CPU can set one back a significant amount of cash. The cost of mother is certainly higher. You won't have to wait another three months for the release of Coffee Lake, and the number of possible upgrades is through the roof. Even 32 threads can be put in there! It doesn't matter how much money you throw at it, this motherboard will be able to handle it:) In any event, according to the theory, the HEDT platform ought to be either the same as or superior to the mass equivalent in all aspects. As a result of these feelings, I decided to get this CPU along with a mother for it. Because it is the least expensive option for the LGA2066 platform that supports four channels of RAM, the 7800X. Now, let's look at the first paragraph. I am able to run a 7800X on an MSI X299 GAMING M7 ACK board with a CBO NZXT Kraken X52 @ 4.6GHz with a fixed Vcore voltage of 12022V. RAM from Corsair ranging from 4 to 8 and 3200/16. In the benchmarks, when I was using a reasonable amount of throttle, I did not set any AVX offsets. The maximum voltage of 1.35 volts is permitted for use with the 7800X. In other words, if I decided I didn't want to use 4.8 GHz, I could. It's possible that I'll upgrade to a 7900 or 7920 model sometime in the future. But not anymore; for explanation, see below. After then, both the quantity and the price of the kernels will increase by a factor of three. Instead, this pricey toy will be consigned to the scrap heap of history in its current incarnation.
Cons
- Since its inception, 20xx has been marketed toward and positioned as a platform that caters to enthusiasts, including overclockers and low-tier gamers. By 2022, when this 2066 was finally made available to the public, and in the mass market - Coffee Lake, this was no longer the case. I paid 25,000 for a motherboard, which was not even close to being the finest option, and another 25,000 for a processor. 3 to 4 months after the initial purchase, it was possible to acquire the i7 8700K for the same 25,000 dollars or for a lower price, and the mother to it for overclocking for a price of 10,000 dollars. It is more cost effective and time efficient to get one final titan rather than two 1080Ti, one 1080ti rather than two standard 1080s, and so on. Installing two video cards is a very unprofitable endeavor. Unless you just require two Titans, that is. Nuuu, with all due respect, perhaps I should not be the advisor to you. The entirety of the 2066 platform is rendered unusable for use in a typical domestic setting. One credible source in the media asserts that all motherboards manufactured in 2022 for this processor have appallingly inadequate cooling of the power circuits of the processor. If you are considering overclocking your computer, you should be aware that a potential pitfall may be waiting for you not at the limit of CPU gluttony in volts nor at the imperfection of your cooling system, which may not be able to remove as much heat as your processor is capable of producing. The bad news will come much earlier (provided that the stone in question is of high quality), and that is that your VRM will overheat. In most cases, the mother will only extract 10–12 cores at the very most. The LGA2066 stones are more harder to scale than the LGA1151 stones. And you are correct, overclocking the 7800X is only possible as a part of the Turbo Boost feature. Because removing Turbo Boost renders it unable to overclock in any way, the base clock can only be increased to a maximum of 3500 MHz after the EIST reset is performed. For the purpose of building a personal computer (but not for video editing, rendering, or other exceedingly sophisticated computations at the forefront of scientific discoveries), the inexpensive Coffee Lake platform is superior to solutions based on this platform in every respect. It is essential 8/16 - the ninth generation ought to be released in the autumn of 2022, so just wait. Significantly less expensive, if not the stone itself, then most certainly the mother to him. Additionally, the acceleration will be improved. Because (for more information, view this page on Intel's website), the usual thermal dissipation (TDP) of the most energy-efficient mainstream processors is 95W. The 7800X has a thermal design power of 140 watts. On the other hand, there is AVX512, which you will most likely have no use for at all. In a nutshell, look at the i7 8086K.
Pros
- I decided on a contemporary powerful processor based on the resource's tables as the best choice for the price to performance ratio.
Cons
- If the performance index was 9 or greater up until I learned otherwise, I would rank the top five. In general, I'm happy.
Pros
- Fast, cold.
Cons
- Thermal paste instead of solder under the cover.
Pros
- First review, oh well DDR4 and then for those who are not fond of overclocking.
Cons
- Decent heat dissipation and space price.
Pros
- Excellent overclocking potential, a relatively inexpensive copy of this processor, overclocked to 4.4 GHz on the ASUS Z170-PRO Gaming motherboard. Manufacturer's water-cooled Corsair H100i v2. It heats up in game mode up to 56 degrees. Which is very good.
Cons
- Not identified.
Pros
- - The processor, which is made of silicon like other processors, is capable of running all modern games in 2022 at the highest possible settings (after overclocking the bus to 4.25 GHz).
Cons
- If it weren't for the thermal paste inside the lid, the possibility for overclocking would be significantly higher. Well, of course, this is thermal paste. After more than 1.7 years of operation, there was no noticeable change.
Pros
- We are discussing the i7 6700 without the k suffix. The original equipment manufacturer version is cold, powerful, and only 17r in price.
Cons
- Instead of thermal snot, I'd want to see solder under the cover!
Pros
- + One of Intel's 6. Th generation and Skylake architecture redesigned modern model + Exceptional high processing power and speed + Very low temperatures during high end gaming (/w Cooler Master EVO cooler) on 40*C ± 5*C + This model contains a stronger version of Intel HD Graphics (530), that can be utilized with programs utilizing Intel Quicksync technology. This will practically nullify any performance impact, that could otherwise occur on the CPU or GPU.
Cons
- - High price but you get what you pay for ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Pros
- Powerful, productive in terms of computing speed
Cons
- After i5 3470 did not find
