Intel's 8th generation Core "Coffee Lake" 6-core processors aim to restore the company's competitiveness in the mainstream-desktop (MSDT) platform, which eroded to AMD's unexpectedly successful Ryzen. The chips will hit the stores a little later this month, at price-points very close to the outgoing 7th generation Core "Kaby Lake" processors; although a report by SweClockers predicts that the chips will be scarcely available until early-2018.
Intel is launching "Coffee Lake" desktop processor family with a rather trimmed down lineup of six SKUs, two each under the Core i7, Core i5, and Core i3 brands, with the former two being 6-core, and the Core i3 being quad-core, marking an increase in core-counts across the board. While these chips will very much be available on launch-date in the retail channel, there could be an inventory shortage running all the way till Q1-2018.
Q1-2018 is particularly interesting, as that's when AMD is expected to launch its 2nd generation Ryzen processors, based on its new 12 nm "Pinnacle Ridge" silicon. This is expected to be an optical-shrink of the current "Summit Ridge" / "Zeppelin" die to GlobalFoundries' latest 12 nm node, which will allow AMD to increase clock speeds across the board at minimal power/thermal cost, restoring competitiveness lost to "Coffee Lake."
