Over the weekend we already had a bit of a chat that Intel would be releasing some processors during Computex. It seems now that Coffee Lake is alive as well.

Intel Coffee results (well assumed Coffee lake SKUs) have shown up in the SiSoft Sandra Results database as wccftech spotted. The procs spotted ate embedded 4-core units and 6-core desktop parts. It is unclear when Intel will release Coffee Lake though as first the Sky and kaby Lake X procs will be released.

Coffee Lake would be released together with the Z370 / H370 chipsets and logic assumes a release later this year in the Q4 region. Intel 300 series desktop processor motherboard would be based on the current LGA 1151 socket, and since the SiSoft results shows a Kaby lake Client Platform entry, it could very well be compatible with Socket 1151 motherboards. Earlier rumours stated that the 300 Series chipset's Coffee Lake-S processor will provide 6 Cores 12 threaded CPUS, which is Intel's first in the mainstream platform to enhance the number of processors and threads. 

The 6-core part spotted in the Sandra data-base does not seem to have Hyper-threading enabled indicative of a Core i5 version, it’s clocked at a 3.5 GHz base clock frequency. There’s no mention of the Turbo clock frequency. The chip features 1.5 MB of L2 cache (6 x 256 KB) and 9 MB of L3 cache.
