Looks good. Hope we can order these soon

Same performance as 1800x because 25% more cores but compensates with almost 20% clock speed and better IPC so again 8700K is better buy than 1800x for actual prices at moment.
It depends on your use, the 8700K is mostly a gaming CPU, and very little can beat it at that use case. If you can load up all cores a heavily overclocked I5 8600k can barely compete with the 1700, maybe the 8700k can beat the 1700 in cinebench. So it depends on what you do with your pc, there is no CPU that is perfect for everything. The thing that interest me most is the cooler requirements for this CPU, because 5GHz is not easy on a 7700k and it will only be harder on the 8700K unless something drastic has changed.

This is looking awesome! Thank you AMD, I'll be sure my next processor will be some flavour of Ryzen. Now, let us see what the price drops and refreshes from AMD will look like.

I would like to see those benchmarks @1440p......right now I have a 1080p monitor but of course, in the next few months/years I will get a new one and is going to be 1440p. A 1700 Ryzen CPU+350mobo is always going to be cheaper than a 8700k+Z370+212Evo fan and I think is going to be more "future proof"

IPC is about 1-2% over last gen typically averages at 1fps since someone leaked performance on single core performance with a 7700k @ 4.5Ghz and the 8700k also at 4.5GHz. The 4.7GHz turbo really helps it but in metro the 7700k beat out the 8700k which was kinda strange.

How long do you think Intel sat on this chip before releasing it ? That's something AMD needs to take into consideration ...
Intel could have made it ever since Sandy-Bridge, that they didn't shows their disdain for their customer base. It's also amusing that AMD managed to catch them with their pants down as a result of them getting too comfortable with their little monopoly.

Actually in games, the 8600K will be slower in a slice of the titles than the 7600K, and the 8700K slower than the 7700K. How can you tell the new gaming king will be the 8600K? And still about 100 EUR (~50%) more expensive than an R5 1600. Intel doesn't seem to learn.
No it won't be slower. All core turbo and single core turbo are equal/higher on the 8600k plus an additional 2 cores. MSRP of 8600k is 250. R5 1600 is 215. No where near 50% So definitely going to be the go to gaming CPU. Pretty good deal considering 8600k will run full circle around the r5 1600 in games.

well this is the result of competition. this would've been the hedt 6 core before ryzen. i like it a frack-ton more at this price than the mid 600's. there is a real missed opportunity for ryzen itx. most mobos on market are really lame and Intel hits hard on itx form factors. why is this...? is it the partners or amd...? i mean asrock has a sweet dual m.2 on the atx am4 no reason they couldn't do a double decker (top/bottom of circuit board) on an itx... and what's with the minuscule power delivery on those itx am4 boards?

Seems like this leak was with the all core turbo set to the 1 core turbo value, so the 8700K was at 4.7GHz and the 8600K was at 4.3GHz even when using 6 cores (which explais the high results in Cinebench for the 8700K, for example).
Also, please keep in mind that GBT and Asus boards automatically set all core turbo ratio for 8600K at 4300 and 8700K at 4700MHz.

Ain't disdain, this is what Capitalism brings you and just one reason why it sucks.

Honestly im done with greedy Intel for a while, im good with My Ryzen at 4ghz, ill wait for Ryzen 2.
Yeah that's due out next year with between 5-15% IPC increase. I think I'm done with Intel now too, they should've pushed things a long a bit quicker but I'm telling you if Ryzen wasn't made the 8700K would be another quad core. Support the little guys.. they made this happen, will probably end up sticking with AMD now.. I don't need to buy Intel any more thankfully. Back in the K6 days I swore I'd never buy Intel but AMD dropped the ball hard and I really had no choice to to Core 2 and i5/i7 series after that. I can't imagine Intel will ever be in the position it was in some years ago.. it's all on the up and up from now on boys.

Personally waiting for February, by that time this will get released, and Ryzen 2000 (or what ever it will be called) on 12nm will also get a release. Check benches, compare and move forward. While I try to be open minded on this, I do consider AMD as a more favorable choice in this case mostly due to no need to switch Mobo's nonstop down the road. But let's see, finally we have some Good competition on the market.

depend where you are... in Germany it is really cheap, in here it's at 15Euro less on price's preview... same as mobo that are at the same price whatever you need z vs x and b vs b... this is maybe the reason of Ryzen's success in Germany and a good but not so good sale here... and i think AMD should consider that Europe is not limited to Germany and France only...
