The 8th generation of Core's family lineup has seen unprecedented rumblings, including Kaby Lake Refresh's low-voltage products, Kaby Lake-G's AMD GPU-powered processors, Coffee Lake's desktop family, and theoretically also part of the Cannon Lake. (10nm)
Even so, Intel did not stop 'adding bricks and tiles'.
In addition to the higher-end Z390 in the chipset, while in the CPU, There is actually an 8 core mysterious species.
Since this generation of i7/i5 desktop processors and notebooks have been upgraded to 6 cores, according to the 'toothpaste factory' style, only dare to look forward to the '9-generation Core' to 8 core, but in the 8th generation of Core In the technical documentation, Intel quoted an 8-core product more than once, and it was crowned with the Coffee Lake-S family code.
among them 2 in '8+2' represents the nuclear level, which is GT2e, It seems that UHD630 or a small frequency change a vest.
Including TPU, TMHW and other well-known hardware media, all speculated that the 8-core product would not be the i7-9700K in the previous Eurocom port. The former guesses that it is the 40th anniversary edition i7-8086K that has only recently surfaced.
Of course, this idea is not tenable at the moment, because the 8086K's N steal screenshots all testify that it is a 6-core, 12-thread product.
one way or another If the 8th Generation Core Core finally touches 8 cores and 16 threads, it will be a blow to the confident Ryzen 7 2700X. , However, the price will certainly be very moving.
