Possible price drop on intel kaby lake and broadwell
Table of contents:
It looks like we are going to witness a price drop across the full range of Intel Kaby Lake, Intel Skylake and Broadwell-E processors in the coming weeks. This discount can be seen from 20 euros to 300 euros (depending on the models).
Before buying, wait for Kaby Lake, Skylake and Broadwell-E price drop
According to WCCFtech, they have found a store in the United States that has applied discounts to all their Intel processors. The most impressive cut is the i7-6950X with 300 euros, the i7-6900k at 200 euros, i7-6700k at 140 dollars and the recent Intel i7-7700k has a discount of 80 dollars.
If the news is really true and this small drop in price in Europe is confirmed, the following question will arise: Will it be enough to compete against the “cheap” AMD Ryzen?
We leave you the supposed price list:
- Intel Core i7-6950X (1599 Euros) - Price reduction of 300 euros. Intel Core i7-6900K (999 Euros) - Price reduction of 200 euros. Intel Core i7-6850K (549 Euros) - Price reduction of 150 euros. Intel Core i7-6800K (359 Euros) - Price reduction of 140 euros.Intel Core i7-5820K (319 Euros) - Price reduction of 100 euros.Intel Core i7-7700K (299 Euros) - Price reduction of 80 euros.Intel Core i7-6700K (259 Euros) - Price reduction of 140 euros.Intel Core i7-4790K (279 Euros) - Price reduction 90 euros.Intel Core i7-7700 (289 Euros) - Price reduction of 50 euros.Intel Core i7-6700 (259 Euros) - 90 Price reduction.

In the absence of seeing performance tests on our website and end users, a priori it seems that they will not be enough. Since the i7-7700k would stay at 280 euros and the i7-6900k (direct rival of the R7 1800X) at 799 euros. The one that seems most interesting is the i5-7600k, which could possibly stay at 190 euros, making it an ideal option for Gaming users with a budget of 800 to 900 euros. And more knowing that there are not enough titles that (even with the fingers of one hand) take advantage of the multi-thread and it seems that it will take a long time until a good arsenal appears.
Another important note is that we see that the Intel Pentium have a small reduction and the Intel Core i3 their reduction is insufficient. And more than an i5 it will be at a more interesting price.
We recommend reading our guide to the best processors.
What is clear that AMD has achieved something that we have been pleading for years, competitiveness with Intel processors, to start price adjustments and a real performance improvement. Whether you're an AMD, Nvidia, or Intel fanboy, rivalry always benefits the end customer - that is, you.
