On April 1 of this year, we
published the news that by its 50th anniversary, Intel is releasing collection computers based on its old x86 processors. But it was April 1 - with all the consequences. And now, quite seriously. By the 40th anniversary of the x86 architecture and its birthday, the company released a limited processor series with a talking title
i7-8086K and
aligned , elegant features.
Functionally, like two drops of water similar to its
classmate i7-8700K , 8086K is distinguished by its “holiday” frequency value: the base frequency is 4.00 GHz and the maximum for one core is 5.00 GHz. The jubilee processor was the first in Intel, overstepped the threshold of 5 GHz in normal mode. The rest, as they say, is one to one: 6 cores, 12 threads, 12 MB cache, 95 watts TDP. Unlocked multiplier for overclocking in frequency. Intel UHD Graphics 630 graphics core with a base frequency of 350 MHz and a maximum of 1.2 GHz.
As part of its jubilee celebrations, Intel holds a lottery in which 8086 Intel Core i7-8086K processors are being played - in order to participate in it, you need to register on the
site . Unfortunately, Russia is not on the list of participating countries, so it’s not possible to participate in the action right away. The official price of the processor is not stated, moreover, it is not yet clear by whom and where it will be sold - a number of stores declared this position as a pre-order, but then it was removed. It is known that the volume of the limited series will be 50 thousand pieces.
I think there would be people in our country who wanted to buy such an unusual processor - it is not known when the next such exclusive will be. I wonder if there are such on Habré?
