Yesterday I blogged about my Intel i7-6800K Geekbench results and I said to replace the i7-6800K with the i7-6850K to see what that brings. Well. It’s not just the higher clock rate (3.6GHz versus 3.4GHz) but also the maximum turbo frequency (4GHz versus 3.8GHz) and some headroom for 200MHz extra OC.
Where is the Geekbench 3.4.1 result? Right. Here it is. Enjoy.
Back to work now…
Edit: I forgot to tell you something. I did not need VoodooTSCSync.kext with the i7-6800K and I also don’t need it with the i7-6850K so that is good news.

Nice, though a $600.00+ cpu that produces a minimal, if any, improvement over the previous generation is questionable. http://browser.primatelabs.com/geekbench3/7506933
But what is exciting to me is that we finally have a talented dev running unsupported Apple hardware that will probably come up with some solutions to X99 that we haven’t seen yet…
Thanks for all you do. -Ken
Thanks. Time will tell us if you are right, but for now; I am most likely the first (and only?) person to run a Broadwell E processor with XCPM registered in macOS Sierra 😉
