CPU & Memory Performance
Cinebench R15
Intel’s i5-7600K overclocked to 4.7GHz only just edges another system’s previous generation i5-6600K despite utilising a higher frequency. Evidently, the new chip is a basic frequency boost and doesn’t provide any real IPC enhancements. Nevertheless, it’s still a good Cinebench score which illustrates the CPU’s commendable multi-threaded abilities.
WPrime
The system’s Kaby Lake processor completes the WPrime calculation task in a faster time than its predecessor. However, the gap is tiny and there’s no real change if you compare identical frequencies.

In terms of memory bandwidth, the results are mixed and I was a little perplexed by the sub-par write speeds which fell below 30000MB/s. To clarify the data, I ran the benchmark multiple times and attained similar numbers. On a more positive note, the read and write speeds are good and within the performance range I expected for 2666MHz modules.
