TechReport’s take(1) on Intel
TechReport’s take(1) on Intel no longer publishing all core turbo-clock metrics. And It looks like Intel’s 14nm++ process is not producing enough die yields where the cores can be all core turbo-clocked as high as Intel wanted. Maybe this has somthing to do with Intel’s pulling Coffee Lake’s release date in sooner and Intel just did not have enough time to get its over all yield of dies that have better overall all core turbo-clockimg ability in sufficient numbers for release.
AdoredTV also has an interesting video where AdoredTV rates the reviewers’ Coffee lake reviews because the Coffee lake benchmark results across various review sites have had a bit too much variability with their respective Coffee lake benchmarking results.
One thing is for sure Intel’s is still pivoting in its reply to AMD’s Ryzen/Threadripper competition and that GF 12nm process node bump from its current 14nm process may see any Zen+ clocks catching up of getting damn close to what Intel is getting with its 14nm++ process. Some Very Interesting times ahead.
