If normal chips are hitting 5GHz under the type of cooling I can use at home then it will be an instant buy from me, I'll be amazed though.

Intel to launch 6 core Coffee Lake-S CPUs & Z370 chipset 5 October 2017
- Thread starter AthlonXP1800
- Start date
5ghz after being delided and on LN. also these where chips GIVEN to overclocking guys from intel, so a good chance they where pre binned to start with.
maybe coffee lake will hit 5ghz who knows we just have to wait and see, just the lack of actual info from E3 about them in any form was rather shocking to say they are due august this year.

what's that got to do with this? we've seen several skylake x 10 cores easily overclock, we've seen these overclocks be done on low end coolers, crikey my u14s noctua runs 8c lower than my h115i with 4 fans in push/pull.
and I don't get why people are surprised by this, this is skylake architecture that overclocks very well as we saw with the 6700ks.
much like we had 4.7ghz on 5960xs easily enough.
They've made these claims in the past that's why, until reviewers get samples its all up in the air and even then a lot of people will wait to see what people achieve on the retail chips.
it basically is reviewers that have them de8aeur and lucky_noob are world famous overclockers...
and de8aeur was exactly right with how well Haswell e and broadwell e would overclock, why would he be wrong now?

Do they give new drugs out to the public to treat a certain illness if they only did a trial on a small group of people first? Not likely, because they don't always work that way for everyone. Same thing applies here with CPU's. Couple of tests are not the full story.
I give absolutely zero ***** about what people are getting with engineering samples and cherry picked chips provided by Intel. Sure it can be considered a vague gauge of what to expect. But I much prefer to see actual review, both from users and sites when the chips launch.
yeah just rewatched that video, he did delid and apply liquid metal to get 5ghz, but still stands will be a pre binned chip he was handed to play with wait until a few more people have hold of them id even be a tad sceptical of the overclocks from linus, jayz2cent or other well known youtubers tbh as intel will be trying to get the best pr it can get (cant blame them) but wait until people on here have retail units hitting 5ghz before you state it as fact. i hope coffee lake does clock well and is brilliant as its only a good thing no matter what make your looking to go.
even when they critique intel over choices/products?
or is that because they also criticise amd over some of their products?
from what he said, he wasn't at a voltage wall it was a thermal wall since 10 cores is pretty toasty.
which to me, suggests 6/8 cores will do those high clocks easier due to less heat, and the fact he was only using an AIO, which even a noctua would drop a few C off of to help with thermals.
ignoring the fact the chips are binned and they aint coffee lake cpus on a different socket this means very little for coffee lake atm. sure you can say its the same fab process but as for the actual chip id imagine its rather different but again being intel for all we know with how kaby lake suddenly works on x299 could litrally just be a case of slap it on a new socket mount and away ya go.
but as far as what coffee lake will hit id wait until theres actual coffee lake cpus being tested. as things could turn out a bit different. hell they could hit 6 ghz due to them supposedly being a even greater refined 14nm process but until we see them we just dont know, and il say it again wait for independent reviews before expecting them to hit whatever speeds the over clockers get as they do get binned chips direct from inte as its damned good pr to claim to have the fastest cpu's out there.

Linus was pretty scathing of Intel's upcoming Skylake x / Kabylake x line up specifically restricting the PCIe lanes/TIM/and the son no-one wanted Kabylake X. His general opinion was its a mess.
on a 10 core. as we've said the 5ghz was delidded, so technically these would all go to 5ghz with a delid.
which is very impressive for a 10 core, on TIM these are doing 400mhz+ what the 6950x could do with solder...
