AMD reveals a single rack Super Computer capable of 1PetaFLOP
Yep. One rack. 1PetaFLOP in single precision and 2 in half.
Using 20 Epyc 7601(aka 32core) and 80 top end Vega GPUS. Only consumes 30Gigawatts/FLOP which is damn efficient all things considered.
Let's just say this is quite a monster.

TweakTown are shams. Don't trust a word they say.
COD heavily favours AMD. Resident Evil is another DX11 game that heavily favours AMD.

Intel Coffee Lake 8th Generation Core Family Detailed – 300 Series Chipset and LGA 1151 Socket Support, 6 Core CPUs With 95W TDP and 24 PCIe Lanes
"The details start off with a desktop product roadmap which show that Intel plans to launch their Coffee Lake S series processors in late Q3 2017. The ‘S’ moniker stands for mainstream desktop chips which are going to launch on the 300-series platform. The roadmap shows that Intel will be making two product updates with the Coffee Lake S family. The first family will be arriving on the Kaby Lake Refresh chipset which will be known as Z370 and the second family will be arriving on the Cannon Lake PCH which will be known as Z390 and will also include other SKUs (H/B/Q)."

Wait... so there's another Kaby Lake refresh? And that'll be Z370? But that's not Coffee Lake? Coffee Lake is still 1151 socket and will be Z390, but it won't support Z270 motherboards, even though it's still socket 1151? Unlike Kaby Lake Z370 chips that will? Because according to ASRock, Z270 won't support Coffee Lake.

No you misinterpreted it
I'll quote Sweepr for a wee run down:
"- There will be 6 consumer Coffee Lake-S SKUs at launch (including both 4C+GT2 and 6C+GT2), we already know the specs for four of them - considering the 6C+GT2 die covers both Core i5 and Core i7 lineup, two Core i3 models make sense, both should be 4C+GT2 (Core i3-8300 above and another one?)
- Production window for CFL-S 4+2 and 6+2 is the same, ww34-41 2017 - which means August 21 to October 9
- Up to 24 PCIe 3.0 lanes
- 95W (enthusiasts), 65W (corporate / mainstream) and 35W (low power) TDP SKUs, as expected
- KBL-R PCH = Z370 = high-end chipset, which launches first and apparently won't get replaced by a Z390 in early 2018 as Dr.MOLA indicated
- CNL PCH = Rest of the 300 series, including programmable quad-core audio DSP, Gen 2 of USB 3.1, Wifi-AC, SDXC 3.0 and Thunderbolt with DisplayPort 1.4 - even H110 will be replaced"

Intel seems to like confusing solutions at the moment. First X299 and now Coffee-Lake. Ryzen anyone?

That's as clear as mud, sorry. :huh:

Ha ha I don't know ow how to break it down any better to be honest. Chipset is called KBL refresh is all.
Cut it out.

Just a joke. Didn't mean anything by it. I'm really hoping these Coffee-Lake CPU's finally topple the i7-7700k's reign. It'd be great to see six-core+ becoming more common regardless of vendor.

Sorry for the misunderstanding; feeling ill today and that kills my joke recognition every time. I've been up since 3:30
So I'm sorry. Yeah they will for sure! On both accounts!

The coffee lake actually makes sense.
4c8 thread i3 should be a lot better than R3
6c6 thread i5 meh, its hard to tell anything of clock speed/IPC vs more threads
6c12 tread i7 should be alot better than the 1600X, again, hard to say vs 1700/1800
But if it keeps up the gaming performance it should be good chips. And the hopefully the price will be low to compete with AMD.

LOL @ Intel and low prices.

Yeah, I'm gonna side with Alien. I don't predict Intel will be lowering their prices. They'll up the performance, but they won't lower the prices. That's my prediction anyway. If anything they'll increase them.

Gaming wise I expect the i7 to beat Ryzen handily across the board, unless the architechture runs too warm for decent clocks. The i5 will probably be almost identical to current 7700k, both in performance and thermals.
Then again Ryzen is completely fine for gaming, at least at traditional 60Hz.
I just keep wondering about the pricing, somehow I expect a price hike from Intel due to the added cores.

I doubt the new range will hit 7700K levels of gaming performance since they probably won't clock as high.

Sad, but true... (in all likelihood)
Does this help @AngryGoldfish?
The Cannonlake PCH should be incorrect with the entire thing canned for desktops, paving the way for Ice Lake and subsequently Tiger Lake. Not saying there'll be a ICL-PCH in Q1: 2018 for CFL SKUs - that'd be unthinkable.

So Kaby Lake refresh will join Coffee Lake on the Z370 platform. They'll both be on 1151, but Kaby Lake refresh and Coffee Lake will not be supported by Z270. Or maybe Coffee Lake won't be supported by Z270 but Kaby Lake refresh will.
Then there will be another chipset, Z390, that will support both Coffee Lake and Cannon Lake, but not Kaby Lake refresh.
Is that right?

Aye, they will just keep their price structure the same and up the cores etc. Intel do not want to lose face here, if they lower prices they will definitely lose face.
I reckon the 6c 12t CPU will weigh in at around the £350 mark, right about where the 5820k was at launch before they got all greedy. 6c 6t? hmm, £300? £280? something like that.
Of course you would be daft to pay that, because 1600 is less than £200, but that is the mind control Intel have sadly.
I was reading an issue of Custom PC in the toilet and some guy wrote in saying he had finally upgraded his rig from a Q6600 to... A 6850k that he paid £400 for. What a mug ! 1600 is half price and about dead even.
Having said that turkeys who vote for Christmas have never really held any esteem for me. They deserve everything they bloody get.
