i7 7700k vs i7 8700k — Which is Best for Gaming ?
About a month ago Intel had released its new refresh processors based on Coffee Lake.
But the people are still confused between the questions ” Which one should I buy? Which one is best for gaming? ” Today we are going to cover all that in this article. So grab a cup of coffee or tea because things are going to get interesting from here.
i7-8700K – A Minor Introduction
The new i7-8700k feature 6 cores and 12 threads. the chip is like-minded with the LGA 1151 socket on the z370 chipset handiest. This chip is Intel’s first Hexa core product and based totally at the 14nm method node.
The chip comes with factory stock clocked at 3.7GHz. The processor is fully unlocked so it can be easily overclocked to 4.3GHz for 6 cores and 4.7GHz for 1 core. As the compatible mobo supports only DDR4 RAM so does the 8700K. The processor is currently available on Newegg for $420.

i7 7700k vs i7 8700k Gaming Benchmarks and Comparison
Intel annual processors are mostly focused on gaming rather than rendering and creating but the new Coffee Lake balances both.
Nowadays most of the video games are based on multithread, so i7 with 4 cores and 8 threads are lacking here. This is the point where Ryzen hits them hard with its 8 core.
Benchmarks according to Techspot.
Battlefield 1 is one of the most optimized titles of 2017. Even the game manages to run on old Core2Quad processors. This game can be used to compare any type of PC hardware. Battlefield 1 clearly does not use more than 4 cores and 8 threads so the 8700K performs the same as 7700K.
In Civilization VI 8700K performs the same as the 7700K with the difference of 1 FPS. However, New Coffee Lake should gain over the old 8700K but don’t worry we got more benchmarks.
In benchmarks applications, 8700K appears to beat 7700k with a big margin. But if we take a look at the gaming side the difference is not that much. In fact, the Core i7-8700K appears to be 2% faster than 7700K at the stock clock. So the i7 7700k vs i7 8700k is pretty tough competition.
Power Consumption and Overclocking
Core i7-8700K provides significantly high overclockable clocks than 7700K.
