Intel Core i7-7700K Kaby Lake review: Is the desktop CPU dead?
With identical performance to Skylake, Intel brings desktop performance to a standstill.
The Intel Core i7-7700K is what happens when a chip company stops trying. The i7-7700K is the first desktop Intel chip in brave new post-"tick-tock" world—which means that instead of major improvements to architecture, process, and instructions per clock (IPC), we get slightly higher clock speeds and a way to decode DRM-laden 4K streaming video. Huzzah.
For the average consumer building or buying a new performance-focused PC, a desktop chip based on 14nm Kaby Lake remains the chip of choice—a total lack of competition at this level makes sure of that.
Auf Reddit geht gerade bezeichnenderweise dieses Bild hier um:
Ein Reddit User zusammenfassend dazu:

Kaby Lake is essentially Skylake with:
1: a slightly improved 14nm process, reducing power consumption fractionally;
2: slightly higher clock speeds, which any overclocker worth his salt could get out of Skylake with the stock heatsink, never mind a good one;
3: an improved iGPU which most of us will never use;
4: a completely inadequate TIM under the heatspreader, ensuring it's in a permanent state of borderline overheating, even at stock speeds and with a good heatsink;
5: a brand-new, slightly increased price point;
6: almost imperceptibly lower IPC. Yes, someone did an A-B test at equal clock speeds, and Skylake won by a hair - consistently.
It couldn't be more obvious that Kaby Lake is just Intel marking time while they struggle to get their 10nm process working.
