Thank you, sir! These comparisons between CPU generations are most welcome indeed. I guess I´ll stick with my 4790K a couple of years more.

Too bad the mint doesn't give the CPUs that cool feeling.
I rate this comment 3.5/4!
LOL !
AssassinKlD Yeah man, those 8700ks that can overclock to 5ghz without delid and still run on safe temps for a 24/7 oveclock on an air cooler are straight up gargabe fam. Get you one of those ryzen cpus that perform 60% worse for gaming and have a clock limit of 4ghz even on water that can't run ram over 3200mhz. That's the way to do it.
*Dale Chalfont*
What are you talking about m8, I'm running a Sandy i7. The last soldered gen chip, even with stock fan and 4.7GHz OC it never reach 70°C when gaming. Slapped on a $25 cooler and it chills at 55 in games is just great, the chip has served me 4 years no problem. Intel cutting cost with later gens and make buyers suffer from poor temp. Seeing people with newer i7's needing expensive coolers to achieve temps below 70 just makes me sad.
I think that adding the gpu bound scenarios are important because like you said, it's a more realistic use case. I was having some buyers remorse from your last video (even though I got my i7 in 2015 lol) and now I feel much better about my hardware. I think it's a psychological thing, where you always look for the bad and not the good. Great video as always Steve, I really appreciate the work you do.
I'm still rocking my 4770k! I have it paired with a GTX 1080 Ti and I see no point in upgrading the CPU. It's quite the gaming rig, but I also use Photoshop, Premiere Pro, and I make music as well. The 4770k is still a fantastic CPU and shows no signs of slowing down, at least in terms of what I use it for. Keep up the good work!
Haswell is still a great platform, great deal used because it's "4" generations old when its one process node old.
I have the same i7 4770k + 1080ti + 16 ddr4 2400mhz
Glad to see the graphs back with the blue bars I missed them! Good vid as always keep it up!
1:17 core/thread errors
4/8 not 4/4
Yeah he had that in the last video too. I mentioned it, but I guess he didn't see it.
Sorry guys I was in a hurry to add that bit of footage and imported the image from the old video, totally forgot I made that error :(
Nice work. Thank you. So, the i7-8700K is 6-core CPU. It will be nice to find some i7-3930K or i7-4930K to compare. Im using i7-3930K @ 4600Mhz for about 5 years and Im wondering what i7-8700K will show against older 6-core Intel chips. :) We know that Sandy Bridge are some of the best chips of Intel, and the 6-core parts are very interesting in 2017 to compare, cos now Intel making 6-core cpu mainstream.
Yeah hoping to see something like this too from HWUB. But we'll eventually put together a 1st Gen core i-series 6 core (Xeon w3680) vs 2nd/3rd gen 6 core (e5-1650v1 or v2) vs 8700k shootout. The w3680 is in hand, my brother has an e5-1650 I already have 4.5ghz numbers for, and two friends just got their 8700k systems together. Hmmmmm
You mean AMD Ryzen made the 6-core CPU mainstream.
I own an i5-8400, but give credit where credit is due. Intel didn't release a mainstream 6-core processor until after the 6-core Ryzen 5 1600 launched.
Really a great effort to include medium settings benchmarks just to show a better analysis with visual aids. Much appreciated
Really love these comparisons! Thanks again Steve for the hardwork. Provides great insight into how older hardware stacks up!
Great work, Steve! Doing doing the gaming public a great service, once again! 😊
Looking forward to the 2600k tests!
Great and properly done video Steve.To me this is one of your best videos ever made methodology wise.Of course production quality remains top notch!
Thanks mate, appreciate that!
Excellent video as always. I really appreciate your content, well made, top quality, keep up the amazing work!
Also really proud of my 4770k 😀😀
excellent work, Steve. I see no need to replace my OCed 7700k for gaming anytime soon.
Hope not as it less then a year old.
7700K may be less then a year old although it performs the same as a chip from 2015... 6700K.
Great stuff man, thanks for sharing this. Lots of folks still rocking their 4th gen I5-I7 CPUs.
Once again, thanks for benchmarks!
I like pointing at a video and saying, see look here.
Your benchmarks to get the point is always well explained(testing CPU at 720p for example), never disappointed. On top of all that, you come back with the "I want to see" results!
enjoyed the video :D keep up the good work steve
Amazing review as usual :)
Again fantastic insight into the old i7 4770k comparisons. This CPU still holds it's own today and surely shows that those owners who have one still don't need to upgrade, better to spend the money on a Card upgrade.
As usual great job Steve, look forward to the next...thanks brother.
Thanks mate, appreciate the support!
Lit, got a 4770k. Gonna be a good watch.
You've still got a great system, the 980 is still good too! You should hold off even longer than what it takes to double performance for $1000, because you'll probably be underwhelmed. You'll go from getting great FPS to getting... great FPS, Even if it's doubled, 100 FPS is still great, even if 200 is better.
Severe Arts what temps ? WC ? i have stock 4770k whit evo212 and in full load 75-79 C whit artic mx2
dude that`s a lot? what clocl?
Looks like I don't need to bother with an upgrade. I have a 4770K @ 4.4Ghz with a Strix 1080 TI OC. Good video mate!!
Excellent video Steve! I would love to see this done with I5s.
How about 5820k vs 8700k? :D would love to see this!
I'll try and make it happen soon for ya ;)
how about a 5775c man? the red headed stepchild of intel cpus even though its a beast!
5820k vs 8700k Are more like 1600X vs 8700k
Ive never seen a tech channel do a first gen i7 vs a current gen i7. I'm still on a 1st gen i7 and have no idea how much gain I would get upgrading.
Save Net Neutrality - ua-cam.com/video/8caCYb0G0ec/v-deo.html yw
Outstanding video. Curious to know what your temps were for the 4.8GHZ OC for the 8700k?
Hey Steve great video as always!😎👍✌️Now watching all these 1440p settings how will the overclocked r3 1200 stack up to the 8700k?? Very curious.
Thanks for the update Steve! I'm still rocking a 3770k @ 4.6 Ghz w/1080 ti and have been back and forth about the upgrade to the 8700k. Glad to see that, in gaming, the difference is marginal. Been interested in in the productivity gains tho, but not enough to pull the trigger since 95% of my PC usage is gaming. Probably will go for the rumored 9700k (8c/16t) or the Zen 2 (Zen +?) version of the 1700 next year tho, if all goes well financially. The extra day-to-day usability and multitasking of more cores/threads is calling to me lol
Great content as always Steve! 1:17 Am I right in thinking 4770k, 4790k and 7700k are 8 thread?
Just found your Channel and subbed.. refreshing hearing a Aussie for a change love the Vids. Is a i5 4670k still OK for Gaming ?
Thanks shooter, yeah the 4670K will still get the job done and will be able to extract the maximum performance from a GTX 1080.
great video my dude
Great video. Glad you tested Siege. I thought it was a more CPU intense game. Any VR benchmarking?
4.8GHz out of a 4770k? That's pretty reasonable. Is It delidded? Didn't see many 4770k passing the 4.6GHz mark.
That's definetly one of the top Haswells out there. My 4670k doesn't even go over 4,00Ghz (except I bump the voltage by ~0,1 Volt, which is not reasonable at all for a 100Mhz increase), and many other people hit a wall at around 4,00Ghz too.
Smoke 165 I can agree absolutely! I got my 4770k to 4.5GHz @1.29V.
the 4.8Ghz oc is a bit out of this world (top 1% probably). I cant pass 4.3Ghz @ 1.2V stable with a delided 4770k and noctua nh-d15s. It needs more than 1.3v for 4.4Ghz and thats not worth it.
My 4770k is @4.5Ghz with 1.15v and hits 83C on load (Enermax Liqmax II 240), for 4.6Ghz I would need 1.25v and the temps skyrocket to 95C so I'm leaving it at 4.5Ghz.
Luís César Carvalho Yours ist a nugget. This voltage is pretty rare at this speed. Delid it, OC it further ;).
Great video as usual Steve.
I was wondering if you can test some games on high res but without aa or other resource hungry features.
It might be interesting to know if in these settings something like a 1060 can pull out 4k in some games.
Nice video i don't even know how much time you spend benchmarking, but can you changue the medium quality to high?
Great review as always thank you Steve.
Like it was said in the last video it seems that the DDR3 memory even though it is @2400MHz and tight timings seems to be holding the 4770K@4.8GHz back a bit when the game is looking for more bandwidth.
I play at 60Hz so 60FPS since that is what my Samsung 60" HDTV runs at yes it has the 120Hz motion thingy but that really looks weird. I decided to see what my system was doing while I was gaming so I set up MSi After burner to use Riva Tuner and get all that info on my screen while gaming. I unlocked Vsync and let her rip (tear)..lol
I was rather surprised that in the games I tested @ 1080p all ran way over 100FPS sometimes into the 200FPS range or more. I only tested the newer games I have all of which came out in 2016-2017. It also gave me a pretty good idea how my system behaved for CPU,GPU load and temps. From my limited testing it basically told me I do not have to upgrade my CPU yet (i7 2700K@5.0GHz was 5.1Ghz but the move upstairs from basement made me a bit uneasy with the temps hitting 83c under stress testing the CPU & a constant 58c-63c in the games with vsync unlocked. I am going to wait for either a better performing Ryzen 2 8/16 CPU or see what Intel can do with their 8/16 CPU in 2018. My video card being a R9 390x 8GB is probably my next hardware to finally be upgraded. I was going to do the Vega upgrade until the reviews came out for those cards. So either will be a Navi card or if ever Nvidia releases Volta to the masses I will go for which ever cards will give me the best bang for the buck.
the benchmark king strikes again ;) thanks for the effort that you put in this videos!
I really appreciate you throwing in some medium settings in the 1080p testing. It's nice to see where the CPU limitations are rather than GPU.
I prefer the higher framerates in games rather than higher graphics quality, so it kinda tells what to expect out of a CPU. I have a 4690k and a 1060 6GB, so I really don't see a realistic point in upgrading unless I wanted a 1080ti and more cores/threads for other applications.
Either way, thank you for the video. I would definitely appreciate some more 1080p low/medium results for your CPU testing if you find time to do it
So, I have the 4790K, the 7700, and the Ryzen Threadripper 1950X. All good chips.
Good vid steve, i like the 4770k being included as its still bloody relevant for gaming when OC it seems.
Great to know that there is no need to upgrade my 4790k (@4.8) with the rez that I am running (3440x1440). Thanks for the informative video!
Hey Steve, what kind of temps where you seeing with that 4.8k ghz OC? My 4770k at stock can go up to 75 degrees in prime 95 with a older noctua 120 mm single tower .....
Steve, might it be possible that at this point (4.8 Ghz) the 4770k is held back by the ram? Because platforms that utilize DDR4 seemed to have an easier time for example in Ashes of the Benchmark. For example the 7600k, which only has half the threads the 4770k has, was nearly as fast.
hey steve, great video ! im currently running a 4670k and i want to upgrade to either a 4790k or 4770k used. do you think the difference from 4770k to 4790k is worth the extra 40 bucks ?
Would you guys recommend updating from haswell to ryzen for gaming while running the server too?
Hardware Unboxed Benchmark machine, CPU overclocking comparison thumbs up GOOD JOB MATE.
Cheers, thanks karan!
I oc mine 4770k.. vcore voltage 1.420 stable on 4.6 ghz core and 4.6 uncore with 1.290 ring voltage.. do i need to clock down cache ratio to 4.2 or lower and try to bump up core clock little higher ?
Within the last fortnight I made this exact transition, upgraded from a 4770k to 8700k with a 1080Ti. You're conclusion is correct for monitor gaming. I'm running a 144mhz monitor and the actual perceivable gaming experience doesn't feel different. However if you're into VR gaming the jump to an 8700k has improved performance noticeably on titles that really push your system. Project Cars 2 is a good example, the 8700k as smoothed out the stutters I had with the 4770k. So depending on your gaming usage, the upgrade isn't quite a mute subject.
love this Chanel especially as he also appreciates older gen cpu 's and also very educational
Its nice to know since my purchase of the 4790k like 3 years ago still has a perfect GPU upgrade path at 1440p and 4k gaming. I guess I picked the right parts when I built my rig. Thanks Steve for the BMS!
It is a big difference in gaming between 4770k 4.2ghz and 4.8ghz? I have 4770k oc to 4.2ghz on a H97 asus motherboard. I cant get over 4.2ghz.thx
Steve, I would LOVE to see an OCed i7--5820k/6800k versus the i7-8700k! They are all hex cores, but the Haswell-E/Broadwell-E chips have 3 MB more L3 Cache!
Regardless, love the videos! Keep up the good work!
Man I was really stoked when I got my i7 8700k, but I have to say after watching this it was really an eye opener. Good grief, I should be set well far ahead. I got a liquid cooled system, with a 1080ti a i7 8700k, 256 ssd with 2tb hhd, and I installed a 850 evo ssd, got an 850 watt PS, and 32 gb of ram, system is overclocked up to 4.6 I usually keep it at 4.3. But the old stuff seems to really hold it's own still. Good video.
How did you get that lightning effect, what is that cooler?
@Hardware Unboxed Steve did your X68 board still have lights but that's all the life she showed?
Yes that is correct.
I'm wanting to delid my 8700K to get the thermals under check but am unable to locate any delid tools in Australia. Any idea where i'd be able to purchase one? The ebay 3d printed things seem abit dodgy. @Hardware Unboxed
So, with my 4790 *non-K version* running at ~3.7 ghz will my FPS still be pretty comparable to an upgraded CPU if I upgrade my GPU from a 970 to a 1070 or 1070 ti? I don't have the money to upgrade my whole system and I'm looking to be able to run Destiny 2 at highest settings at 1080p as close to 144 fps as I can get. In the future I would replace more of my components but I'd only be able to spend enough at this point to purchase a GPU or a case/mobo/cpu/cooler/memory.
Is it worth it to upgrade a Haswell i5 for 1440p gaming or just wait for the 10nm parts?
Hey,
I want to ask which result you got for Overwatch?
I got a i7 4770k 4,3 ghz 1080 ti at 1080p and i average at 113 fps
would be nice if i could compare :)
Hi should I upgrade from i5 6500 to i7 6700/7700 or get new i5 8400? Or wait for 9th gen processors there will i3 i5 with hyperthreading...
Awesome Video, thanks again. In the next video, you could include the AMD Ryzen R5 1600X too. Thanks! Brow!
What voltage would be too high for coffee lake, Im running my 8700k at 5.2GHZ 1.425V and people are saying thats fine but im a little worried.
Considering the performance difference between 5.0Ghz and 5.2 Ghz is negligible, you are pushing your CPU a bit much. Downclock to 5.0Ghz with more reasonable voltages and you're good. Maybe 1.425V is indeed ok for 8700k and the CPU won't degrade overtime, but why should you risk it if there is little to be gained?
Fair enough, Ill probably downclock it since I haven't seen any gains whatsoever.
are the thread counts incorrect at 1:26? i thought the firs three were all 4c/8t cpus? sorry if you are ignoring logical threads and explained it already and I missed it!
It was a typo
Good vid . Rly good!!!
Thanks for the review Steve. It can definitely be seen that a lot of effort is involved in making these kinds of benchmarking videos. Though i must say what you said at 12:48 I have to disagree with slightly. I think a fair number of people out there usually don't have an abundance of cash lying about to upgrade everything and maybe can only choose between a CPU+MB+RAM combo or go with a top end card like the 1080ti, a situation that I find myself in. I am really looking forward to the 2600k review as that is what I am currently running right now. My experience with the 2600K was acceptable until very recently, when i noticed in some of the more recent titles, I noticed a fair amount of micro stuttering both at 1080p and 1440p. I am running high speed DDR3 2400 memory downclocked to DDR3 2133 along with a new SSD but the stuttering persists. I know this might be a long shot but is there a chance that you can add 0.1% lows in your testing in order to better showcase stuttering in gameplay? Thanks man! Love your videos! Keep up the great work!
Why are you even considering the GTX 1080 Ti? This to me makes no sense. Wouldn't the GTX 1070 be a wiser choice?
It's because I already have the 1070 but after moving to 1440p, it really struggles to keep an even 60 FPS in the more recent more demanding titles at Ultra presets. I agree that it might not be the best solution for me as the micro stuttering would be even further exacerbated with a more powerful GPU such as the 1080ti. Thus i am very much looking forward to your 2600k coverage hoping that you might include the .1% performance numbers or even just some comments on the overall fluidity of the gameplay aspect vs 8700K. I accept that the problem could very well be on my side and an indication of the CPU + MB being on its last legs.
Regardless of the problems associated with my personal rig, I still feel that my point was valid, that people who are running a Sandy Bridge config with a current gen 1060 or 1070 equivalent might only have the option of either a platform change OR a GPU change but usually not both.
I got a 2600K at 4.4 Ghz and GTX 1070.
The GPU is the bottleneck at 1080p so either scale back your resolution or spend $1000+ on new hardware.
Can you add a 3930k or other older 6-core? I'm interested to see how that compares to Coffee Lake.
Steve, I have recently bought Rx 470 and a freesync supported monitor lg22mp68vq ...I have turned on the freesync in Radeon settings but stuttering is happening like before and fps is higher than refresh rate....can u tell me the solution?
1ctrlaltdelete1 yeah man did that too
Could you do a ryzen revisit with new games that make use of the cores? I know COD WW2 makes use of all cores on my 1700 @3.9
Amazing video, I'm sitting on 4770K@4,2GHz+Gigabyte GTX 1070 G1 for 1080p/144Hz gaming. Good luck with Sandy Bridge. I'm waiting for Ivy Bridge (maybe it has been done already?) bc my second rig is 3770K@4,2GHz+Gigabyte GTX 1080Ti Aourus Extreme for 1440p/G-Synced 144Hz gaming.
Steve would you in the future do any multi gpu benchmarking? Like 1070 in SLI compared to 1080ti as price is now similar?
I'm very against SLI and Crossfire so I don't like to promote it as an option.
Hardware Unboxed yeah a mate has 1080s for 4k gaming and it's hit n miss eh.
It will be great if you add the overclocking specs you used for the 4770K to run it at 4.8 GHz. Thanks anyway!! Very helpful
For gaming, those 4th gen i7 processors are still very relevant! Great video mate.
I purchased a 4790K a few years ago on special for $400 AUD and I haven't regretted it! It's great for gaming and being able to use the IGPU to encode H.264 video with Intel Quicksync means I can utilize all of my purchased hardware and I've not seen a compelling reason to upgrade yet :)
Good to see the medium quality benchmarks, rare to see those, these days.
Helpful for anyone that has or is considering getting a 240hz monitor :)
Would DDR3 3000mhz bring the 4770k up to par? or a 5ghz 4790k?
4790K masterrace keeps going!
Would the i7 2600 (non-K) also not be worth upgrading, for example with a gtx 1060 attached?
With a GTX 1060 no way, with a GTX 1080 Ti maybe, I'll have to see ;)
Thanks Steve great review. I think my i7 6700k @4.8 gig is good for another year...
I'd be interested to see if pairing an old but adequate CPU like a 3930k with a 1080ti would make any sense or just be a waste of money.
Steve, can you recommend motherboards as well for older Intel chip overclocks with these videos? A lot of people in my area are buying new hardware atm, because they OC-d their 2600K, 3770K, 4770K in the name of "this is just as good as the new this way" and their motherboard died in 2-3weeks (ofc those were not top of the line Z series mobos)
Please let people know, that just because they have the CPU to overclock, it doesnt mean they have the comlete system to overclock and it can break permanently if not done with care.
if a motherboard is made to overclock, it will do it fine. you just need to keep temperatures in check. you arent getting a 4.8 oc on most 4770ks with a cheap air cooler. motherboards that are made to overclock can handle moderate overclocks just fine. the high end boards are made for pushing the limits with strong cooling
For 3rd gen K CPUS I recommend z77 motherboards, for 4th gen any good z97 should do the job fine
just because a close friend of mine just blew his gigabyte p67-ds3-b3 mobo, with a very shy overclock on a 2600K @4.2ghz didnt even have to change any voltage. It survived 4 hours or prime95 torture at maximum temp of 83 degrees, and a week later mobo kicked the bucket. And right now used z68 mobos are going for 100$+ here because everyone fries their system and looking for used parts for sandy bridge, and ivy bridge.
Was it a bad decision to go for Amd on this gen?
You and Tech Deals are the best tech UA-camrs.
I went back and watched Steve's video over the $100 entry level GPU battle featuring the 1050 and rx460. Its crazy how much happier and entertaining Steve has become! Seriously, go watch it and compare.
haha thanks mate, getting better all the time :) At least I hope I am :D
great video "The Benchmark Man". Love your work. love form Bangladesh
Are the rainbow six benchmark results done with the in-game benchmark?
hello bro am new sub from tech deal channel i wonder which great cheap cpu that i get always solid 60 fps with vsync on with ztoac gtx 1070 mini that i have in 1080p@60hz and that can handle 5+ year ?? cause at the moment i got fx 8320 not that good enough in some games so i decide to upgrade my 3 parts which is 16 gb ram ddr4 and a motherboard also cpu so need help list of intel with board and list of ryzen with board please would be helpful cause i get confused for what to pick by next year
Great comparison, for 1080p gaming my 4770k @ 4ghz with a 1070 sc should be good for a few more years.
i am glad to see K CPUs overclocked! The anti aliasing is off in most test, right?
Thank you for this complete and honest review..:)
*Those charts at ******1:18****** are still wrong hehe :)* It's ok... Don't fire anyone this time! BTW you are like a benchmarking king. Any tips for OCing for the first time, with R5 1600x?
1:20 do i see right? i7-4770K, i7-4790K and i7-7700K all are 4 core 4 threads? how did you miss that?
I currently have a i5 4690k stock cpu, Id like to upgrade to a 1440p 144hz monitor and a 1080i. How badly would by 4690k effect performance ? Is it worth upgrading to 4790k ?
yes it is worth it. At 1440p the difference between 4790k and 8700k will be null.
Nismodragon Thats because your at 4k man. Your extremely GPU bound. Go to 1080p and see how the 4770k pulls way ahead of the 4670k
How did you manage to get the 4770K up to 4.8Ghz? I have mine water cooled and I get stability issues when I go over 4.4Ghz =(
I could be lucky, hard to say without testing your CPU ;) There are many reports of 4770K chips getting to 4.8 GHz and higher. You might have got a bad chip, 4.4 GHz is very poor.
Well im not usually lucky with CPU or GPU chips so not a big deal for me either, thanks for the answer, great video as always, keep this videos up, love from Spain =)
How would a 4790K stack up to the 4770K when comparing clock for clock performance?
I know my 4790K gets a pretty good Cinebench score of 957 in Multi-thread at 4.8 GHz on air
its the same cpu with different factory clocks, so they will act identical.
Not really no.. The architecture in the 4790K is improved upon, hence why the Haswell Refresh chips launched
Haswell Refresh are Haswell binned chips with improved thermal paste and improved VRM. They are the same architecture, same performance clock for clock.
@P.J Yes, the "way more electronics" is the improved VRM that i already mentioned. " The Devil's Canyon is by far a superior chip" is an overstatement. If you want a similar comparisson look at AMD RX480 and RX580.
Can you do productity test with i7 4770k and 8700k, both oc.
"z68 board probs" tell me about it, my z77 just started only playing sound on one channel only... Febs Ryzen refresh can't come soon enough..
johnyfartpants what z77 board do you have ? I will buy an used PC with an z77 Mpower board this weekend. I really hope its flawless...
Gigabyte GA-Z77-D3H has worked perfectly since new then recently started making electrical cracking noises (Couldn't see any damage and still can't..) now only getting sound out of the left speaker on my headphones. have reinstalled the drivers and still the same issue so think chip or other component must have failed no visible damage though.
johnyfartpants Oh okey that has to be the issue :/
it could be the connector that is broken
thanks for this video it has helped alot with deciding on my wait vs buy 1080ti. I have a 7700k with a 980ti I get about 20% less fps so i know its my gpu but the cost vs performance numbers with a bottled gpu will make me wait for the next gpu from nvidia. Also me not buying a 1080ti makes the next gpu come faster because I am not buying sale decline if only by a fraction of a percentage. Now if I can just get everyone to not buy 1080s we could have volta next week.
I'd love to see a comparison between the 8700k vs either core i7 980 or the 990x seeing as those were some of the first consumer 6 core processors from intel. Would be interesting to see how much of a difference the would be.
New intro is dope
Good to see I don’t need to upgrade my 4790k. But can you test on more games such as bf1 etc
Yeah baby! I have a 4770K not even overclocked. I just jammed a 1080 Founders Edition in my system. Hardest part was fitting the card in the mini-atx case. EVGA Hadron Hydro
At 1:24 in the video I assume you mean 4/8 (core/thread) for the 4770k, 4790k, and 7700k, right? I was confused and I wanted to make sure I understand correctly. Sorry if anyone has already said that. BTW I love your videos they're really awesome!
Yeah sorry mate that was a typo, it's 4core/8thread for the 4th and 7th gen Core i7's.
