Base clock of 4GHz with Turbo Boost up to 4.5GHz
One of Intel’s Core i9 range with the current top tier Core i7 processors has been spotted on the SiSoft Sandra online benchmarking database.
Ukrainian language site Overclockers.ua found this nugget about the Intel Core i9-7900X Skylake X processor.
It needs to be comparied with the spec we were expecting
The database entry SiSoft lits the processor ID as an “Intel i7-7900X CPU” but sometimes software needs to be updated with new ID references or parameters to get designated names correct.
It shows that it runs at a base clock of 4GHz with Turbo Boost up to 4.5GHz on tap.
It shows the 1MB of L2 cache and 13.75MB of L3 cache in line with the previous leak. A slightly worrying spec not touched upon so far concerns the processor TDP. Previously it was touted as being a 140W processor but it is reported as a 175W CPU by SiSoft Sandra.
The motherboard supporting Intel’s upcoming Skylake-X processor is a Gigabyte X299 AORUS Gaming 7. The X299 designator is the Intel chipset being introduced to support these new CPUs and platform features.
