Intel launches the 8th generation of Intel Core processors, code name Coffee Lake. It has a very similar architecture to the previous, successful Kaby Lake series. However, Intel has worked on various optimisations, resulting in an Intel Core i7-8700K processor that delivers real-world performance while maintaining low energy consumption.
The Coffee Lake architecture is based on a 14nm manufacturing node. The demanding manufacturing is handled by Intel with utterly stunning perfection, offering the Intel Core i7-8700K processor an excellent price/performance ratio. For the first time ever, the Intel chip has six powerful cores. The increase in the number of cores is accompanied by higher working frequencies.
This process is a relatively sophisticated adjustment to the CPU itself. Intel has used a relatively common heat conductive paste between the chip and the heat transfer, with the result that local overheating of the processor during overclocking can happen in a matter of seconds. Michal Mikle safely processes ("unwraps") the processor by applying the paste and then reseals everything into its original form. The result is a noticeable drop in temperature during its maximum load.
If you have already purchased a processor with us in a regular variant without delid, you can do a delid directly with Michal Mikle.
Due to the unlocked multiplier, this processor is suitable for games with overclocking. All you need to do is install a suitable cooler, have enough memory, and use a suitable piece of silicon. Accessing data is facilitated by a fast 12MB L3 cache, which provides the cores enough time to respond instantly to all applications.
The Intel Coffee Lake platform contains quite a few improvements over the previous generation of processors, so Intel has decided to take a rather unusual step. Although this processor uses the well-known socket 1151, it will require a new motherboard, specifically, a model with the Intel 3XX chipset.
