Just minor improvements over previous generation does not justify why Intel had to phase out the 6600K and introduce this processor
Could have dropped the prices a little more considering the impending launch of Ryzen 5
There is no doubt that an enthusiast wanting to get to that 5GHz milestone can do it with an Intel Core i5-7600K and air cooling if you choose your components wisely. Surely the Silicon Lottery always comes into play, but the 7600K processors seem to be m...
If you're after a budget processor from Intel that can perform daily tasks with occasional gaming… then there's no question, the Intel Pentium G4560 is your answer. It's a dual core Kaby Lake with 4 threads at $65.00… what more do you want?! 1 2 3 4Sha...

The 7600K has mostly the same conclusion as the i7-7700K: If you're on Skylake, stick with it. If you're on something as old as Ivy Bridge, it's probably worth considering an upgrade to better enable high-end GPUs with some of these titles, but that's abo...
If you want to run your new Kaby Lake processor with a naked die in the search of better cooling and overclocking, you have a couple of hoops to jump through. You will need to shim up your CPU as well as do a bit of surgery on the motherboard's socket as...
As we saw with our Intel Core-i5 7700K, delidding and relidding with a better quality Thermal Interface Material, gave us great results with the 7600K. You do however have to be a bit patient, use the right amount of adhesive, and make sure your clamping...

Abstract: One would think the graphics of a Core i5 7600K "Kaby Lake" processor would be faster than the Core i5 6600K "Skylake" or even a Core i5 6500, but that's not always the case with the current state of the Linux driver support for the newest-generation Inte...
Abstract: Kaby Lake. (That's 'Kaby rhymes with baby' if you're wondering, according to my press contact over at Intel, though I've heard it called 'Cabbie' Lake by more than a few folks.) Intel's 7th Generation Core processors are now available for everything from...

For $86 less, the Core i5-7600K scores about 80% of what the Core i7-7700K does in the heavy instruction benchmarks, all while doing it at 30C less and 20W less. If you need extra performance, overclocking it to 7700K frequencies is super easy, and you st...

Intel released their 7th Generation LGA115x platform, named Kaby Lake. It consists of new CPUs and new chipsets.From my tests, i5-7600K is around 5% better than i5-6600K at stock clocks, but it is because of the higher base clock and multi-core Turbo Boos...
