Intel's 8-core Mainstream Coffee Lake-S Processor Spotted in the Wild?

[bug]

Throttling is happening even on stock CPU's. K models are "OC versions" after all. Altho delid is needed to OC properly. Most of them can't even hit 5 GHz stable without throttling. Intel sent out review samples that overclocked better than average and even these hits 90C+ at 5 GHz using 240-360mm AIOs.

That's not what testing has found out. HardOCP has tried delidding and they got like 100MHz more. To me, that's proof the stock solution is more than adequate.
And no, they don't throttle by default. They may not sustain boost clocks indefinitely, but they will sustain the advertised base clocks.

I’m sure Intel has test and validated that pigeon poop for the use cases of their processors .

They have, and you should ignore las. Anywhere he has a chance, this kid spouts off this garbage. Meanwhile, I'll sit here at 4.5 GHz with 10c/20t and 16c/32t processors... oh and my 5.0 GHz 8700K... all happily running in the 90s when stress testing, 60s when gaming....

Dude is a troll... look at his posts...Ive reported it, just hoping for obvious action.

Unless the TIM is straight borked not making contact (which this paste and the iridium solder can happen with), your typical increase is 100-200 Mhz. Anything more than that is NOT COMMON.

Z390 will it be compatible with z370 with this 8 core you think? i wonder what it will be called 8800K? 8790K?

They are s series processors. Not k

I'd imagine Z370 to be compatible with the 8 core, yes. I don't know what Z390 is supposed to offer above and beyond Z370, honestly...

Integrated usb 3.1 gen2, integrated Wifi, better audio card... Ähh look to yourself:

The last rumor I heard was that 8 core CFL would only be compatible with Z390 due to increased power draw (the same bullshit intel used for 6 core CFL and Z370).
