The Core i7-7700K 4-Core 4.2GHz is a high-end CPU based on the 14nm, Kaby Lake micro architecture.
It offers 4 physical cores (8 logical), initially clocked at 4.2GHz, which may go up and 8MB of L3 Cache.
Among its many features, HyperThreading, Turbo Boost 2.0 and Virtualization are activated and the processor has its multiplier unlocked.

This cpu HAS integrated GPU. ---- HD 630 ffs !
Will be good this MOBO for i7 7700K: https://www.asus.com/us/Motherboards/PRIME-B250M-PLUS/overview/ ?
(I do not mean to OC the processor either) Thank you.
Nope….Use Z series
I mean B Series is Not Good enough for K Series Proc
just little diff money spend…but will give you more perform
my recommend is MSI Z270 and b'couse its K-Series dont forget to use better CPU Fan Cooler XD
Thanks for your response, it has helped me a lot.
:)
Will this CPU bottleneck with a gtx 1080 at 1080p 144hz?
if you want the highest you can,i suggest 8700k/1080ti,for oherwise 7700k/1080 are perfect!
Thanks!
nb :)
Hi! Do you think this cpu is gonna make a fine upgrade to my gaming PC?? I'm also considering a 6700K (could get this one around 150 PLN (-35 euro) cheaper) Will it go with my current MoBo and the Silentium Fera cooling I'm using now?? thnx
BTW, I'm talking about gaming purposes. For my professional work, I don't use anything different from the stadanrd office apps, acrobat, or any web browser. ;)
Totally worth it i7 7700k!!exellent for gaming or anything! My biggest boost is wildlands: from medium/high to very high(boost 10 to 20 fps!) :) If you have a great cooler,forget my message.If you have a stock cooler you must have to a new cooler, master 212 evo or any other great cooler,or a liquid cooler if you want to OC.
I forgot,what is the name of your MB?
My MoBo is MSI H110M PRO-D (MS-7996) at least this is what I found out from the command prompt. As I said before, I'm using a Silentium Fera (https://www.silentiumpc.com/en/fera-3-he1224/)
I heard that although this CPU is overclockable no problem, it's rather unnecessary for you to do it given its base speed and power, so I don't think I'll go for it ;)
And thank you for your informative reply :)
Hi!:) good cooler you have! but unfortunately you can't with 7gen :/ these can do 6/7th
Look the Z270,most have 6/7th cpu link
Or if you want to 8th zen only ;) 8th gen mobo
more and more recommanded cpu for I7… I'm happy for my new 7700k but pretty mad for the price,420$!! They are vampires!!
p.s. it's 91W,not 95W

23% better must be kidding right :D
how much can i overclock my cpu. Im using dark rock 3 cpu cooler (190w TDP).
Also i have Fractal define C case with 4x 140mm fans. 2x Fan input airfloat and 2x output airfloat.
i dont want to overheat the system. Also i need to know will the use of overclocked cpu might damage the cpu in longterm use.
Hey guys !
Im about to upgrade next June, and im considering between this guy or Ryzen 5 1600 and buys a new mobo.
Will be used for Gaming and Video editing, partially Photoshop
Thanks !!
