Intel I5 Update
Intel I7 Update
The Core i5 9600K tested Intel's new six-core Coffee Lake processor You guys have had to wait a long time for it, but the Core 9000 series processors finally have been released. Three of them in this initial launch actually, two eight-core processors and one six-core processor. We'll test all three of them actually, but will separate them into three reviews, as each processor really serves a different user-base. In this review, we test out the Core i5 9600K. This is the new mainstream processor that you can seat into your Z390 or Z370 (update your bios first please) chipset based motherboard. If you want to build a gaming rig, this processor is your best value bet in the new 9000 series. The new processors I've just called a refresh however, an 8-core part based on Coffee Lake-S, has never been released before.

Intel Core i5 Video drivers for free download. This page contains a list of different drivers for the selected device. Please read the description of each file. Provides a list of Intel microcode updates. This update is a stand-alone update that's available through the Microsoft Update Catalog and targeted to Windows 10, version 1709 (Fall Creators Update) and Windows Server 2016, version 1709 (Server Core).
So with refresh, I do mean the same 14nm Coffee lake architecture that was brought into the Core 9000 series. Man, what a wild ride it has been for Intel huh? They've had their share of bad luck and problems alright. We're not going to focus on that though as this review will be all about what the new procs can mean for you.
Six and eight-core processors in the mainstream segment, it's an all-new for Intel, and we do have to give credit where it's due, if you are going to purchase one of the three procs as listed today, you will need to thank AMD for that. Their aggressive product positioning with Ryzen and many cores forced Intel fabbing more core processors.
And you know what? That's a very good thing, as competition in the market makes companies go that extra mile.
Intel I5 Update
We expect the three processors to become extremely popular in demand for the PC gamer, as each and every one of the processors will offer great gaming performance, as Intel is able to boost the Turbo frequencies towards that 5 GHz range. And that is a big advantage that Intel has over AMD, which is stuck at that 4.2 GHz range with Ryzen 2000 (which is overall really good, but the high per clock core is where it matters in CPU bound gaming; e.g. With super high-end graphics cards like the RTX 2080 Ti). Intel is releasing these three processors: • Core i5-9600K (6 Core / 6 Threads) • Core i7-9700K (8 Core / 8 Threads) • Core i9-9900K (8 Core / 16 Threads). No, that does not mean you'll only see three processors in the Core 9000 range, word out on the street is that a 9100, 9400 and 9500 Core series processor will be released as well. However, this specific launch invokes three processors.
