The editors liked
Great Multi-threaded Performance
Very Reasonable Price
Far easier overclocking than Haswell and Broadwell
The i9-7900X is the most powerful consumer CPU money can buy
High clock speeds out of the box
Improved memory support
Modern complement of IO
Lots of PCIe lanes (with an i9-7900X at least)

Pros
10/20 cost now $999
10 cores and 20 processing threads
For $700 less than last year's comparable chip
Single-threaded performance on par with Core i7-7700K
10 cores and 20 processing threads for $999
Speedy single-threaded performance
Strong Performance
Good Overclockers
Feature Packed Platform
Fastest Desktop Processors To Date
Great multi-core performance
Improved single-core performance
Best performing desktop processor to date
Easy to overclock
Current LGA2011v3 CPU coolers will work
X299 platform is great
Strong single-core performance
Beats Threadripper 1950X at multi-threaded media encoding
Monolithic quad-channel memory interface
Fewer things to configure
Plenty of aftermarket cooling solutions
SkylakeX topped our performance charts
Bringing a much better value over BroadwellE on the highend
The editors didn't like
The i9-7900X costs £900/$1000
AMD's Ryzen offers 75 percent of the performance for well under half the price
The quad-core i7-7740X makes no sense—buy a 7700K instead
Confusing product stack that limits platform features
Power hungry
Requires a £100

Runs hot when overclocked
Similar gaming issues at 1080p as AMD Ryzen chips
New LGA 2066 socket requires a new (and expensive) motherboard
Still pricey compared to Ryzen 7
Relatively pricey
Requires new
Expensive motherboard
Not the fastest at Full HD gaming
Runs hot
Differing PCIe Lane Configurations May Cause Confusion
Pricing May Change When ThreadRipper Arrives
Staggered released
Still 4 Core i9 processors yet to come out
Prices could change with Ryzen ThreadRipper comes out
High price
High idle power draw
No ECC memory support
Fewer PCIe lanes than Threadripper
It's extremely power hungry and considerably more expensive than Ryzen equivalents
Performance regression in some games, Price, Poor thermal performance
Intel's Skylake-X-based Core i9-7900X weighs in with 10 Hyper-Threaded cores and architectural enhancements that benefit many workstation-class workloads, such as rendering and content creation. The processor struggles in some games compared to its predec...
Intel allows high-end desktops to achieve much higher performances by introducing Skylake-X and Kaby Lake-X. This is certainly good news for content creators, who could use the higher performance for 3D-rendering, video editing or other demanding, creativ...
Software optimisations needed, bang4buck hasn't improved much
Wouldn't it be nice if the world's leading chip giants launched new processor series that worked perfectly and made implicit sense?That's the hope, but having witnessed AMD's Ryzen arrive with teething issues ranging from memory support to hesitant in...
If Skylake-X appeared in a year's time as a blatant reaction to AMD's shenanigans, one would rightly suggest that what we've seen today is an indicator of Intel ramping things up to prevent AMD eating into its market share. However, Skylake-X has landed b...

Uncomplicated setup process, Understated design, Well designed UEFI BIOS, Integrated Wi-Fi
M.2 slots not designed very well
Intel's new Core i9-7900X replaces last year's flagship, but is only the entry-level model in its category this year. Pricing is a lot better too - you can get better performance for half as much money now. If that makes this CPU seem tempting, there are...
AMD is back in the gameIt's safe to say that AMD has left the troubled days of Bulldozer behind it. Ryzen Threadripper is an admirable re-entry into the HEDT market, and it's looking like a very compelling option compared to Intel's Core X processors.One...

Corsair trae al mercado otro producto de excelente calidad de construcción, muy estable y con una estética impecable. Las memorias Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro son estupendas tanto por su gran calidad de construcción como por su disipador muy bien ensamblado...
Rendimiento excelente, 10 núcleos, Tecnología de vanguardia, Instalación sencilla para usuarios con conocimientos
Precio, Es obligado acompañarlo con hardware de alta gama
Podemos finalizar diciendo que el Intel Core i9-7900X es una opción que desborda potencia ilimitada. Es una gozada trabajar con semejante tecnología, que agiliza tanto los procesos que en ciertos momentos parece irreal que sea posible realizar determinada...
El equipo presentado por MSI con su MSI X299 Gaming M7 ACK y la MSI GeForce GTX 1070 Ti Gaming X 8GB sin duda representa una referencia en cuanto a un sueño gamer y potencia suficiente como para utilizar el equipo en los entornos de CPU de trabajo más dem...
