The Intel Core i7 8086K processor can be seen, a processor that would be a tribute to the Intel 8086, which will turn a whopping 40 years on June 8 of this year.

It seems that Intel this year intends to launch a large number of processors on the market and among them, it has been leaked through Baidu, a processor of which we had no data. To celebrate the 40th anniversary of the Intel 8086 processor, the first processor on the x86 architecture market, they have introduced the Core i7 8086K. This information could be false or be a simple manipulation, but we really find this tribute to one of the most important processors in history very nice and nostalgic.

This information has been released by HWBattle, who state that this processor will be launched on June 8, 2018, coinciding with the 40th anniversary of the market launch of the first x86 processor. According to the image of the CPU-Z, this will be an i7 8086K processor, based on the Kaby Lake architecture, with six cores and twelve processing threads, which would work at a base frequency of 4.0GHz and could reach 5.0GHz in Boost mode, at most, all this with a TDP of 95W.

It is true that the images seem to be quite real, since the capture of the CPU-Z is a photo to a monitor and is difficult to manipulate, in addition, the data of frequencies, cache, number of cores and others are seen and it is left of course it is also an engineering sample. Although everything seems realistic, we must be very cautious when faced with this type of information.

The mythical Intel 8086 processor is very far from today's processors, since at that time, it had only 29.000 transistors and was capable of operating between 5-10MHz, a monster for those times. Hopefully Intel makes this nice tribute.
