The i5-7600K targets high end gamers, it sits just behind the flagship i7-7700K in Intel’s Kaby Lake lineup. The 7600K will likely be the most popular gaming CPU of 2017 (some competition from AMD’s upcoming Zen/Ryzen CPUs, would be very welcome). Comparing the 7600K and 6600K shows that the two processors are very closely matched and comparing the 7600K vs the hyper-threaded 7700K highlights the relative strength of the 7700K for workstation performance. There are no significant architectural differences between Kaby Lake and Skylake so, when fully overclocked, the two generations should perform similarly but Kaby Lake offers faster base clocks, improved speed shift technology which helps CPU responsiveness, and better integrated graphics.

Launched 7 February 2020, this multithreaded gargantuan comes with whopping 64 core and 128 thread and costs $3990 to be exact. This CPU has core clock of 2.9GHz and has max boost clock of 4.3GHz which is high for CPU with huge amount of cores and has 280W TDP which would shows how efficient this CPU is. The single core performance is not too mind boggling but the multi core performance blows all other single socket CPU in existence. Safe to say, this CPU poses incredible value for content creator, data center and regular server users alike for amount of multithreaded performance you get at that price point. [Feb '20ColdSpy]
