A month ago, we have compared the four generations of Core Duo Core i7-4770K, eight generations of Core i7-8700K Core i7-8700K play the difference between the game, the result a bit accidental, i7-4770K great battles for three years means, and did not imagine so Outdated.
Well, the vision put some longer it? GameSpot has found a second-generation Core i7-2600K flagship Core, the generation of God U, it and Core i7-8700K made a comparison.
i7-2600K released in early 2011, code-named Sandy Bridge, manufacturing process 32nm, 4 core 8 threads, clocked at 3.4-3.8GHz, L3 cache 8MB, core graphics HD 3000, execution unit 12, frequency 850-1350MHz, memory support Dual channel DDR3-1333, thermal design power 95W.
i7-8700K we are more familiar with: Process 14nm, 6 core 12 threads, clocked 3.7-4.7GHz, L3 cache 12MB, Core Graphics UHD 630, 24 execution units, frequency 350-1200MHz, dual-channel memory support DDR4 -2666, thermal design power 95W.
This test with graphics card for the GTX 1080 Ti (to ensure there will be no bottlenecks), as many as 11 game projects, are investigated 1080p in / high / highest quality, 2K highest quality.
Due to too many test charts, let's look at the average score for all games:
1080p medium quality, 2600K with DDR3-2133 memory, DDR3-1600 with a little faster, but regardless of the average frame rate or the lowest frame rate is only 2-3 frames high, the difference is not large, but overclocking After 4.8GHz, the average frame rate increased by a full 17%.
The default frequency, 8700K compared to 2600K average frame rate increased 48%, the lowest frame rate increased 52%, the progress is still quite large, while the face of overclocking 2600K is ahead of about 27%.
In addition, 2600K overclocking can reach 4770K basic level.
2K 8700K under the highest quality greatly reduced the advantages of shrinking compared to 2600K average frame rate only 21% higher, the lowest frame rate is 28% higher, while the face of overclocking 2600K can only lead 10% or so.
The following is a single result of each game, take a slow look:
