Intel to launch 6 core Coffee Lake-S CPUs & Z370 chipset 5 October 2017

It's going to be considerably faster than the 1600X for gaming, so yeah, it's going to be a much better choice for that purpose.

I don't understand why the same handful of people keep bringing up Ryzen in this thread over and over again, same discussions over and over again. I get that you have a preference for platform or multinational corporation, but it's getting annoying.

If you want to trumpet your preferences, go to the Ryzen thread.

Pretty simple. Two competing products. The performance of desktop CPU's fall into a very narrow band. The reality is nothing will be considerably faster than anything else for similar cost.

Issue here is your interpretation of reality, and for your interpretation the Ryzen thread is a better place than the Coffee Lake one.
 
Why buy the superior product now when you can take a gamble and buy something that performs worse currently in the hope that it will do better years in the future, when it most likely will be obsolete anyway, top logic.

If you want some 'future proofing' go for the i7, if you want immediate performance, the i5 might be very attractive since it's a true 6 core.

Why buy anything at all when you have to compromise.
 
Define significant. 10% more frames per second is insignificant when running 150FPS. Especially when one system costs 30% more.

Numbers pulled out of a dark nebulae of course, at this point I'm not sure if you're shilling or trolling, it's ridiculous.
Again, this is a Coffee Lake thread, if you don't have anything to contribute other than trumpet your favorite company's marketing, I'd say the Ryzen thread is a better fit.

I get you don't like what I'm saying and you want Coffee lake to be amazing. It's you that keeps piting Coffee lake against everything else though.
 
You've literally been shilling Ryzen in this entire thread for several pages mate, get off it.
Are you at least part of AMD's community advocate program? Might as well get paid for it if you aren't.
