Octa-Core Intel Coffee Lake-S processor spotted

[CAT-THE-FIFTH]

Maybe my return to an AMD system will be shortlived depending on how this mainstream 8 core from Intel is executed.

Although its obviously down to pressure from AMD as to why Intel have had to make these steps.

Unless you have some real issue with your current system,not sure if its worth it,especially if Zen 2 is out next year on a new node,and by then Intel will have probably improved their CPUs too.

But then I tend to measure how long I keep my CPUs in years,so what do I know!!

Don't know a game that uses 4 cores let alone 8 or 12 or 16 or whatever.

I don't game anymore but will want the 8c 16t for my recording studio
