And the die is roughly 151mm2 in size, which is a good amount bigger compared to say the Core i7 7700K. Not at all surprising with two more cores eh?
The photo was just posted at hkepc on FB. Tomorrow reviews of the Core i7 8700K Processors will go live. The new six-core part will get 12 threads and an all-core boost up-to 4.3 GHz. The processor size itself is of course as wide as the “Kaby Lake,” but the die simply is longer. Roughly 151 mm² with 126 mm² for “Kaby Lake.”
