So the much awaited Kaby Lake processors for desktop computers were unveiled and I got myself the Intel Core i5-7600K which is my favorite range when it comes to Intel processors.The Core i5-7600K looks no different from any other of its ancestors but it...
The Intel Core i5-7600K is one superb processor, it retails at RM 1.1k range and it's really sweet for overclocking. If you already have a Skylake model of the similar range or have no intention to overclock, this is not the model for you. goldfries...

Intel Core i77700KIntel Core i57600KIf you've been reading this little thing called the Internet over the last few weeks, you'll no doubt be aware that Intel's 7000series Kaby Lake desktop CPUs were imminent and from the numerous prelaunch benchmark r...
Ultimately, both CPUs do enough to mean Skylake is consigned to the history books - if you're building a new system, a Kaby Lake CPU and Z270 motherboard should be top of your list, if you're up for some overclocking that is. The Core i7-7700K is the usua...

Kaby Lake is upon us. With Intel killing off its Tick-Tock product cycle in 2016, Kaby Lake ushers in the new ‘Optimisation' phase of a Process-Architecture-Optimisation strategy. What does that mean? Kaby Lake is effectively a barely tweaked version of S...
On the face of it, Kaby Lake looked to be arguably one of Intel's most boring processor launches in a long time. The CPUs are effectively Skylake with faster out-of-the-box speeds, thanks to process node optimisation, and an iGPU enhanced for 4K media con...

If I'm being honest the Kaby Lake launch at the start of the year was a bit of a damp squid. I'm aware that's not the traditional phrasing, but the Intel Core i7 7700K bears more relation to a soggy cephalopod than it does a firecracker. As ever though, f...

The 7600K has mostly the same conclusion as the i7-7700K: If you're on Skylake, stick with it. If you're on something as old as Ivy Bridge, it's probably worth considering an upgrade to better enable high-end GPUs with some of these titles, but that's abo...

Core i5-7600K shows a performance advantage of less than 10% over Core i5-6600K, so it's not that impressive at all. You can consider Kaby Lake as a matured version of Skylake – better operational efficiency and higher clock speeds, but nothing much more...

Raven Ridge APUs are interesting as products. In a world where MSRP acted as an infallible decree handed down by galactic overlords, the GT 1030 would cost $70, the RX 560 would cost $100, and the G4560 would always have been $60. In this world, however...
