Performance & price chart for Binned CPUs (May 2018)

[voidshatter]

Clock and price data were grabbed from a well known retailer selling binned CPUs.

Note that the 8600K is the only one here without hyper-threading so it's approximated as a quad-core.

Yer, the 8600k is being badly underrated imho. HT is not worth half a core, more like 20-25% tops. It should be ranked as a 5 core unit :>

Regarding 8600K as a quad-core equivalence, I took reference to comparisons like these:

The 8600k being listed as a 4 core, with an excuse of it doesn't have hyperthreading, when none of the others have hyperthreading taken into account kinda make the entire chart useless, unfortunately.

Even if you don't agree that the 8600K has almost identical benchmark numbers as the 7700K does (as shown at #6 of this thread), you can use your finger to block your eyes from seeing the four rows of the 8600K, making the 29 remaining rows of the chart useful

Those are done at stock speeds though, where the 8600k is scoring 5% better at 14% lower clocks. Equalise the clocks and it's going to be 19% (at least) faster. Which is almost the 5th core

Stock:
7700K: 4.5GHz singe and 4.4GHz quad
8600K: 4.3GHz single and 4.1GHz hex

It's just an error margin within 5%.

What do the colours represent?

We need a bit more info to see if it has any use.

No no, it's clear that it's of no use to you xD

Why no stock performance numbers

You prefer to run binned CPUs at stock? What a genius!

The clock price ratio number and price performance ratio numbers are far to complicated, why go to 9 decimal places, its just ridiculous.

Some people are colour-blind and cannot distinguish between red and green I guess.
