A few weeks ago, we have spotted an Intel special processor designed for the 40th anniversary of the 8086 processor. Today the processor has been listed on several online retailers revealing the specifications.
According to the source, the Core i7-8086K could be a respin of Coffee Lake-S and it comes with improved frequencies. This CPU packs a base clock of 4.00GHz and a Boost clock of 5.10GHz. The information about Intel's Turbos is vague since they do not release info about it anymore, we can only assume that 5.10GHz is with a single core. The chip will be compatible with Intel 300-series chipset motherboards.
Price wise, the upcoming Core i7-8086K has been listed in Italy for €481 Euro, which is almost 80 Euro more than the Core i7-8700K. Intel should officially unveil this CPU next week during the Computex 2018 expo.
