Intel Core i5-8400 Processor Review – 6 Cores 6 Threads!
I do not have the price for the Intel Core i5-8400 but the estimated price for Malaysia market is RM 700 – RM 900 range, it could be more but it shouldn't be too far apart. The Intel Core i5-8400 is now a "6 cores 6 threads" model which is unlike before where all Core i5 models were "4 cores 4...
Intel Core i5-8400 CPU Review
Today marks a milestone for Intel with the release of the first mainstream six-core CPUs in the Core i5 and Core i7 segments and the first quad-core Core i3 CPUs. Core counts have skyrocketed this year across the board, first with High-End Desktop segments hitting a staggering eighteen cores, and...
Intel Core i5-8400 : Six Cores On A Budget
There's no doubt that AMD's Ryzen processors challenged Intel's position in the desktop PC market this summer. Seemingly in response (though we all know this stuff is planned way in advance), the Coffee Lake-based Core i7 and i5 CPUs landed with six cores each.- Incredible value
- Six Cores
- Strong performance in games and applications
- Price
- Bundled cooler
- No B-Series motherboards at launch
- Poor availability
- Locked ratio multiplier
Intel Coffee Lake-S: Core i5 8400/ Core i5 8600K review
Intel's Coffee Lake-S flagship, the Core i7 8700K is - in our view - the fastest gaming CPU that money can buy right now, but what if you don't have £350/$350 to spend on a new processor?
Intel Coffee Lake Core i5 8400 6 Core 2.8Ghz 9MB Cache, LGA 1151 6 Core/ 6 Threads, , Intel 300 Series Motherboard required
I got this as part of a upgrade combo, I'm very impressed with the speed increase over the old i7.
Intel's six-core "Coffee Lake" Core i5 trades blows with much pricier previous-generation Core i7 chips. But it's most impressive as an affordable high-end CPU for gamers when paired with a dedicated graphics card.
- Often bests previous-generation Core i7-7700K flagship CPU on multi-core tests
- Best-in-class gaming performance
- when paired with a dedicated graphics card
- Not unlocked for overclocking (though i5 K-version does exist
- Requires a new motherboard
- despite Z370 chipset offering no substantive new features
Intel Core i5-8400 Review
Intel's six-core "Coffee Lake" Core i5 trades blows away much pricier previous-generation Core i7 chips. But it's most impressive when paired with a dedicated graphics card. So much has happened this year in the desktop-PC CPU market, it's getting difficult to paint even the broad strokes without a billboard-size canvas. The thumbnail version? More cores and more threads for your CPU dollar, the more into 2017 you get. That extends to the Intel Core i5-8400 ($178.99). AMD kicked off the trend with its eight-core Ryzen 7 chips in March, topping out on that platform with the Ryzen 7 1800X ($295.00 at Amazon)(Opens in a new window) . And the new-CPU conveyor belt really hasn't stopped running since then, with AMD following on with six-core Ryzen 5 chips like the Ryzen 5 1600X, and quad-core, four-thread Ryzen 3 options like the AMD Ryzen 3 1300X. Intel parried with enthusiast-class offerings in a new family called the Core X-Series, topped by the 18-core Core i9-7980XE Extreme Edtion ($1,200.00 at Amazon)(Opens in a new window) . That extravagant mega-chip made AMD's competing counterpart, the 16-core Ryzen Threadripper 1950X ($548.70 at Amazon)(Opens ...- Often bests previous-generation Core i7-7700K flagship CPU on multi-core tests

Intel Core i5-8400 2.8 GHz
The Core i5-8400 is Intel's most affordable option to go beyond a quad-core setup on the desktop. With a price point of $190, it is only half the price of Core i7-8700K, but delivers nearly the same performance in games and can also compete with the Ryzen 6c12t processors thanks to its good...
Today we're checking out the most affordable six-core processor ever released, and this time it's not from AMD.
- Intel's best value chip
- Great for gamers across the board, decent at productivity, thermals in line with a 7700K
- Intel's B360 motherboards won't be available until 2018 and the cost of Z370 boards strains the value of this offer
