Manufacturers of motherboards are clearly interested in frequent changes in chipset, because it allows them to regularly sell new products. In the shrinking market of desktop components, this is one way to support the trade turnover, and Intel company with the release of processors Coffee Lake in the performance of LGA 1151 this desire completely indulges. Recall that to work with these processors will require new motherboards based on the set of logic Intel Z370.
On the site ASRock , meanwhile, processors Coffee Lake of the autumn assortment are already mentioned.
You can see that the Core i7 and Core i5 processors are based on U0 stepping, and the younger Core i3 processors use stepping B0. It is logical to assume that different crystals can be used for their production, because the older models of the family now offer six cores, and this increases the cost of the crystal. In this case, it is advantageous to produce younger processors of the series based on more compact crystals. It remains to wait for the first results of the "opening"
of these processors to make sure of the correctness of these assumptions. In the presence of a plastic thermo interface under the cover of Coffee Lake, we almost do not doubt. Related Products :
