Exactly on the third day of this fate, the PC industry began to rock. Intel has introduced a new, seventh generation Intel processors Core, as well as a 200 line of chipsets. While most of us have become aware of the chipsets, we learned about the Intel Z270 Express from looking at the ASUS Strix Z270E Gaming motherboard, but we have not yet given the processors any respect. In this article we will look at, so to speak, the popular overclocking processor – Core i5-7600K, and also look at the main innovations and changes in the architecture of these CPUs.

Technical characteristics.

How does KabyLake compare to Skylake's successor?

As soon as we begin to understand the features of the “newbie” Intel Core i5-7600K and the already known Intel Core i5-6600K, we do not know any great, fundamental or cardinal changes. To put it bluntly, what we have before us is SkylakeRefresh, which was seen in the new 7th generation, given a new name Kaby Lake. Why did this happen? Why is Intel not in a hurry to pamper us with great productivity gains?
First of all, a great increase in Intel’s productivity is not needed at the moment, and there may be no competition from AMD for the giant’s processors, and so will it be strained in the future?
And the axis of another reason is more global and vagoma. On the right, everyone knows that the strategy for releasing processors under the name “Tik-Tak” is no longer working. Nowadays, it has become much more difficult to release new architecture with high frequency, followed by improvements in the technical process. And such a giant as Intel cannot afford such luxury as the continuation of this strategy.
With the advent of the 22 nm technological process, followed by today's 14 nm, there was a significant challenge due to the re-equipment of production lines, which also increased the clock time frame due to the development of new technological processes.
As time goes on, the processes get used to it, although they are much more advanced, just to imagine, the old technological processes were changed over and over again, today's technological processes, 14 nm, and then 10 nm, change one another every now and then I arrive at 3-4 o'clock. During this long period of time, even the company needs to earn money. :)
So Intel decided to change the “Tick-Tock” strategy to “Tick-Tock-Tock”, then. strategy "Technical process-Microarchitecture" to "Technical process-Architecture-Optimization". What would be more meaningful, we will show it in the table:

I can't help but wonder qiu table Then you can see that Kaby Lake may be called Skylake Refresh, but Intel has decided to introduce these processors in a new generation under its own name.
If we talk about specific changes in the microarchitecture of the processor, then there are none. It would be more correct to say that Intel optimized the processor line, and was able to release a large number of additional processors, as previously.
And thanks to the optimization of the vibration line, it was possible to achieve higher operating frequencies with the same energy efficiency, power, axis and everything!

The processors are also practically not affected. One change, as you can note, is two small protrusions along the edges of the CPU heat-spreader cover. It has now become much easier to install and remove the processor from the socket.

Let's finish with the theoretical part and move on to testing the Intel Core i5-7600K processor.

Testing.

We will first look at the productivity of the Intel Core i5-7600K processor, and then compare it with the productivity of its predecessor, especially the Intel Core i5-6600K. The testing was carried out in two stages, initially the test programs were carried out with nominal adjustments, and then the maximum potential of the processor was checked. The Intel Core i7-6600K processor was upgraded to a frequency of 4700 MHz by saving the activity of all cores. For this we needed to increase the voltage to 1310 V.
And the axis of its new twin Intel Core i5-7600K will accelerate to an impressive 5200 MHz with new stability. With this, we were able to increase the vCore voltage to 1375 V.
It is also significant that the offended processors were in the same minds, offended and offended by the Corsair H110i GTX.

During the hour of testing, the processor warmed up to the following temperature:

In nominal mode, the maximum temperature was 47 degrees.

After overclocking to 5200 MHz, the processor began to warm up to 60 degrees.

Next, we equalize the productivity of Core i5-7600K vs Core i5-6600K. To make it easier to understand the information, we present it in the form of graphs. Screenshots of completed benchmarks on the i5-6600K processor can be found in.

Visnovok.
What do we expect from the result? The picture came to life. Intel has released processors that are a little faster and a little cooler. Otherwise, we already know Skylake, just optimizations, and in a kind way the family of processors is not called KabyLake, but Skylake Refresh. You should definitely run to the store and upgrade if you have a Core i5-6600K, definitely not! If you are definitely not an inveterate overclocker, you will not marry your skin's megahertz. And if your computer has an older processor, then go to the store at this time, you will see the difference!
Therefore, we still recommend testing the Intel Core i5-7600K processor before purchasing.

Test characters

The branding of processors from the previous generations of Intel CPUs has not seen any changes.

The most important two rows are “FPO” and “ATPO”: when combined (from the butt of our device – L639F920-02525) they form a serial number. The FPO row itself is immediately called a “batch code” and is itself oriented differently, selecting a processor based on access to test stand. In addition, the batch code contains information about when and where these copies were produced:

• The first character indicates the place of production: 0 = San Jose, Costa Rica; 1 = Cavite, Philippines; 3 = Costa Rica; 6 = Chandler, Arizona; 7 = Philippines; 8 = Leixlip, Ireland; 9 = Penang, Malaysia; L = Malaysia; Q = Malaysia; R = Manila, Philippines; X = Vietnam; Y = Leixlip, Ireland;
• Another symbol is the river of production (in our generation – 2016 river);
• The third and fourth symbols are the year of production (in our version - the 39th day or the interval from 26 to 2 years);
• From the fifth to the eighth character is the party identifier (in our type - F920);
• ATPO – this is the serial number of the batch processor (for times – 02525).

All test characters are divided into two different batches - two up to G920 and six up to G802. The difference in the dates of generation between them is twofold:

• L639F920-00237;
• L639F920-02525;
• L641G802-00524;
• L641G802-00766;

This guide will help you configure UEFI BIOS parameters to achieve stable 5 GHz on unlocked Kaby Lake processors of the current generation (Intel Core i7-7700K, Intel Core i5-7600K and ).

A few practical statistics:

• Approximately 20% of this generation's CPUs consistently run at 5 GHz on all add-ons, including Handbrake/AVX;
• 80% of Kaby Lake software functions at 5 GHz, however, programs using the AVX command system have to reduce the frequency to a stable 4800 MHz (this is carried out in an automatic format with the AVX offset parameter active in the BIOS);
• Additional Kaby Lake samples can be processed with either memory modules at a frequency of DDR4-4133 (on ROG Maximus IX motherboards) or with the same memory module at a frequency of DDR4-4266 (tested on the Maximus IX Apex board).

What voltage is normal for 5 GHz?

Perhaps, one of the most important things to do is to overclock the CPU in the process. Even this very parameter is key to stability and the overall result of overclocking.

First, let's take a look at the energy efficiency of the Intel Core i7-7700K in different operating modes:

• at nominal, the processor operates at around 45 W (with the ROG Realbench add-on);
• at a frequency of 5 GHz and when running the ROG Realbench test, 93 W are taken;
• 5 GHz and Prime95 - 131 W.

For stable operation of the CPU at 5 GHz in the Prime95 test (and therefore in most of the add-ons that are most often used) a voltage of 1.35 V is required (Vcore parameter in the BIOS). It is not recommended to overestimate the value in order to understand degradation processor and overheating.

For stable operation of the CPU at 5 GHz, the Prime95 test requires a voltage of 1.35 V.

It should be noted that processors from the Kaby Lake family are extremely energy efficient. To equalize stable Skylake at 5 GHz with similar add-ons, for example, Prime95 handles close to 200 W.

To cool the fuel fired during stress tests, you will need a coolant, either a CBO or a high-performance supercooler.

Verified options:

• The SVO with a trisection radiator (water temperature in the system is 18 degrees) cools the processor running up to 5 GHz at a voltage of 1.28 to 63 degrees;
• CBO with a two-section radiator at 1.32 demonstrates 72 degrees;
• cooler at 5 GHz and 1.32 V – 78 degrees.

For a continuous Kaby Lake station at 5 GHz, wind cooling is not enough, but one should not forget about the possibility of optimizing the cooling. To increase the intensity of the CPU, it is only necessary to use it in necessary situations (at a lower price).

Rozgin RAM

Additional Kaby Lake samples can be processed from memory modules running at DDR4-4133.

It is a reminder that Kaby Lake processors work miraculously with RAM at DDR-4133 frequency (tested on the ASUS ROG Maximus family of motherboards). Shows DDR4-4266 available on ASUS Maximus IX Apex and ASUS Strix Z270I Gaming models (all on the right in two DIMM connectors, which are optimized for such frequencies).

But for everyday vikorstan, it is not possible to vikoristovvat OZP with a frequency higher than DDR4-3600; The root 4 GHz memory icon is for enthusiasts; for home or gaming systems, the underlying stability of the PC is important.

Don’t forget about the need to install two sets of RAM in the DIMM slots (factory kits that consist of two or four modules). Independently selecting individual options may simply not work with the settings, timings, etc. you need.

AVX offset parameter

This option helps stabilize the CPU on high frequencies I change the operating frequency when processing operations with the AVX code.

If you fix the processor multiplier at 50 units, BCLK at 100 MHz, and the AVX offset parameter at 0, the resulting frequency of 5000 MHz will be constant. Otherwise, the system may appear unstable. The reason for this behavior will take a long time to be revealed.

In fact, enthusiasts are encouraged to speed up the AVX offset option by setting its value to 2. This means that for a constant 5 GHz the system will automatically change the multiplier to 48 points (which corresponds to 4800 MHz) at the moment when and the activity of AVX add-ons will be marked.

5 GHz without AVX navantazhenya
4.8 GHz with active AVX add-on

This approach has a beneficial effect not only on the stability of the PC, but also on proper energy management, and also on the thermal performance of the CPU.

For everyday users, it is not advisable to compare the OSP with a frequency higher than DDR4-3600.

The functionality of motherboards does not yet allow the operating voltage of the processor to be divided in a similar manner. The only hope is that future generations will be able to realize this benefit without any problems.

Overclocking technique, monitoring and checking the system for stability

As trivial as it may sound, before any overclocking process, you should test the PC in normal mode. Run a number of benchmarks, monitor the current temperature and fix any bugs (if flagged).

As everything is in order, the processor multiplier and voltage are moving nicely (in BIOS settings, it is recommended to select the Adaptive voltage mode instead of Manual or Offset mode for Vcore).

Next, we look for a stable frequency and minimum voltage when the system is running stably (POST, OS startup, availability of service add-ons, stress tests, etc.). If you do not forget to fix the operating temperature of the CPU, there is no need to overestimate 80 degrees in the most intelligent minds.

As a rule, kits with a DDR4-4000+ frequency do not exceed a voltage of 1.25 for the System Agent parameter.

After overclocking the CPU, we move on to the RAM. The best option is to activate the XMP parameter (if the module and motherboard support this profile). Otherwise, you will have to set the maximum operating frequency and timings yourself.

It is not disabled that if a stable RAM value is detected, it will be necessary to adjust the Vcore, System Agent (VCCSA) and VCCIO parameters, which we will talk about below.

Important stress tests:

• ROG Realbench is a unique combination of Handbrake, Luxmark and Winrar add-ons; the benchmark is good for testing RAM, a 2-8 year run is enough;
• HCI Memtest helps identify RAM and CPU cache errors;
• AIDA64 is a classic software tool for any enthusiast; A new stress test can check the processor-memory connection for value (a 2-8 year run is enough).

Practice overclocking and tweaking in UEFI BIOS

Now, let’s move on to the practical part, and to the settings in the BIOS and overclocking itself. We need the Extreme Tweaker tab on ASUS motherboards.

The following options are regulated:

• If you have a Vcore, set the Vcore value to 1.30, the multiplier to 49; for wind refrigeration - 1.25 and 48 volts;
• the Ai Overclock Tuner parameter can be switched to Manual mode;
• CPU Core Ratio at Sync All Cores position;
• for CPU/Cache Voltage (CPU Vcore) select Adaptive Mode;
• for Additional Turbo Mode CPU Core Voltage, the value is set to 1.30 V (with the CBO variable) or 1.25 V for coolers of the same type.

For CPU/Cache Voltage (CPU Vcore) select Adaptive Mode
For Additional Turbo Mode CPU Core Voltage, set the value to 1.30 V

Go to the Internal CPU Power Management submenu:

• IA DC Load Line fixed to 0.01
• IA AC Load Line at 0.01

Internal CPU Power Management

We save the setup and re-install the system, try to go through POST and log into the OS. Since the system is stable, the multiplier can be adjusted to 49-50 points, and up to the flow voltage, if necessary, tossed up+0.02 V. Ale namagaemamosya do not overextend critical badge 1.35 St.

After this, we check the system for value in Prime95 and monitor the CPU temperature (it may not exceed 80 degrees).

For UEFI RAM, select XMP mode. When looking for a stable memory frequency, you can adjust the CPU VCCIO option and CPU System Agent according to the current recommendations:

• for the frequency DDR4-2133 - DDR4-2800, the voltage of the CPU VCCIO and CPU System Agent must be in the range of 1.05-1.15 V;
• for DDR4-2800 – DDR4-3600 CPU VCCIO can be increased to 1.10-1.25, and CPU System Agent - 1.10-1.30 V;
• DDR4-3600 - DDR4-4266: 1.15-1.30 V and 1.20-1.35 V per line.

Select XMP profile
CPU voltage VCCIO

In this case, depending on the selected processor and memory, the indicators can be changed. As a rule, kits with a DDR4-4000+ frequency do not exceed a voltage of 1.25 for the System Agent parameter.

Stress tests are being carried out again based on the stagnant parameters. Don’t forget about the AVX Core Ratio Negative Offset option, which is recommended to be fixed to a value of 2 points (with a CPU clock frequency of 4900 MHz, AVX programs will operate at 4700 MHz).

This is to help achieve the desired result by overclocking Intel Kaby Lake processors to 5 GHz and higher; potential stone significant

Today, as we look at it, it appeared on the high-tech market around the same time (in the first quarter of 2017), and as before, it has a powerful processor with productivity sufficient for any gamer. Prote progress does not stand still, and, as you know, the eighth generation of CPUs from Intel is its own thing revolution in the desktop segment. Everything on the right has an increased number of physical nuclei of new solutions. As a result, products that previously carried the Core i5 name can now be safely added to the Core i3 lineup.

Toys Intel Core i5-7600 “ find out” no worse, no matter what, unblocking the CPU " stone” h great quantity physical nuclei/computational flows.

Therefore, we decided to explore the capabilities of the Intel Core i5-7600 processor immediately if we could really establish the level of productivity of the device with a careful look. stone eighth generation.

We can guess what CPU family Coffee Lake operate exclusively with three hundred line of chipsets, and the Kaby Lake solution axis is compatible with sotimi, so i s two hundred. Regardless of the fact that the profile connector is the same for all devices (Socket LGA 1151), it is impossible to install eighth-generation Intel Core processors on any motherboard.

Technical features

Also, the Intel Core i5-7600 is a 4-core processor (14 nm) with the same number of processing threads; The solution features a 6 MB cache, integrated graphics core HD Graphics 630, 16 PCI-E lanes for external graphics and support for RAM standard DDR4-2133/2400 and DDR3L-1333/1600.

The nominal clock frequency of the solution is 3500 MHz, in the automatic acceleration mode it increases to 4100 MHz. The x41 multiplier is the maximum for the Intel Core i5-7600, which means that the processor without the “K” index is blocked, which means that it is unsigned classic in an awkward way, but we’ll talk about this later.

TDP Intel Core i5-7600 – 65 W, at paper The exhibitor actually looks modest, although the CPU is not completely cold. We were chilled stone With the help of a small horizontal format cooler (using the Box option), during the Cinebench and Corona 1.3 benchmarks, the chip temperature jumped to 69 degrees, and the CO speed reached 2000 rpm.

The Core i5-7600 supports technology, which means that on the basis of this CPU (and a great motherboard) you can build an extremely fast PC with a disk subsystem that meets the latest current standards. Before speaking, one of these SSDs was used during testing of the processor.

Productivity and test results

As we already noted in the beginning of the article, we were immediately impressed by the capabilities of the Intel Core i5-7600 compared to the 4-core eighth-generation solutions; Judging by the hardware characteristics, such a competitor has a similar number of physical cores, cache and TDP (although the Core i5-7600 has a higher clock frequency of 500 MHz).

Almost everyone has it system add-onsі Intel games The Core i5-7600 appears to be closer to the Core i3-8100 (for some programs the difference is minimal), but the difference is not critical. As if the processors were costing as much as they had to blame (and the eighth-generation version, among other things, is twice as cheap for the Core i5-7600), choosing definitely cost the larger current CPU of the family Coffee Lake.

Toys Intel Core i5-7600 find out no matter what, unblocking the CPU or stone with a large number of physical nuclei/calculative flows. As a device, you can trust the most productive video card, for example, GeForce GTX 1080 Ti, the potential of such an adapter will be 100% unlocked.

The Intel Core i5-7600 copes with any other multimedia tasks miraculously, but don’t forget about the need to install high-speed RAM (DDR4-2666 and higher) into the system.

Overclocking

Let us remind you once again about the maximum multiplier that can be fixed in the BIOS, 100 Intel Core i5-7600 - x41. Additional megahertz can only be increased using the additional BCLK bus.

The test motherboard has a lot of components, including a CPU, some of which have the index “K”. As a result, the BCLK indicator increased to 103 MHz, the result is 4200 MHz (the highest level of productivity after such an overclocking increased by about 5%).

This is not a bad idea for a locked Intel Core i5-7600, although the standard power of the device is sufficient for most professional needs (especially for gambling).

Those who already have an Intel Core i5-7600 installed in their system will know that this is a balanced and productive processor for multimedia/gaming needs. Whose decision is missing weak people what to look around CPU building rock out a top-class video card, and the demands on several physical cores will take a long time to complete for the installation of profile tasks.

Chi varto buy Intel Core i5-7600 immediately, if available CPUs with identical ones appear on the market technical characteristics? Nutrition spirne. On the one hand, it is possible to know this stone at a great price at flea markets (at the store it’s incredibly expensive), from the other - the sad eighth generation, Mother's fees for anyone else to encourage nine processors.

So anyway, we have before us a new and even current processor, creations for the powerful money-maker who doesn’t care about dispersal and zaivikh calculation flows. Intel Core i5-7600 is the balance that meets all the needs of the average consumer. Recommended.
