Table of contents:
SiSoft Sandra, one of the best and most common sources of data on new hardware, brings us juicy information about the new 10-core Intel Skylake-X i9 7900X processor that arrives for the new Intel X299 platform.
Intel Skylake-X i9 7900X new details
The Intel Skylake-X i9 7900X is a 10-core processor that is based on the Skylake architecture and a 14nm Tri-Gate manufacturing process. The processor runs at a base speed of 4 GHz with a turbo mode that drives it up to 4.5 GHz, it seems that the improvements introduced by Intel allow the new chips to reach significantly higher speeds. Initially, it was indicated that the chip would reach 3.3 GHz / 4.3 GHz. We are facing extreme speeds for a 10-core processor and, together with the high performance per MHz of its architecture, make us expect great things.
Intel X299 HEDT platform for Skylake-X and Kaby Lake-X CPUs to be announced on May 30
Its features continue with 13.75 MB of L3 cache, 1 MB of L2 cache per core and a TDP of 175W. The high clock speeds, even more compared to AMD's Ryzen, suggest that Intel has managed to greatly improve the manufacturing process at 14 nm for the production of these chips. As a bonus we have that the motherboard used is an X299 Gigabyte AORUS Gaming 7.
Without a doubt the arrival of the AMD Ryzen and their excellent performance have made Intel put the batteries and accelerate the arrival of these new processors, initially they were expected for 2018. Perhaps after this there will be a great improvement in the processors of the series Core i3, Core i5 and Core i7, which have been very stagnant in evolution for more than 5 years.
