Skylake ist für PC-Spieler kein absolutes Muss, daran kann auch der Core i5 6600K im Test nichts ändern. Im Vergleich zum Core i7 6700K ist er aber nur knapp zehn Prozent langsamer und kostet gleichzeitig 30 Prozent weniger ? da ist der Anreiz zum Wechseln für viele Spieler bestimmt gleich ein gutes Stück größer...
Der Intel Core i5-6600K ist der derzeit beste Chip im Mittelklasse-Bereich. Die CPU erreicht mit 3,5 GHz (3,9 im Turbo) auf vier Kernen durchweg gute Werte und schlägt sogar einige Top-CPUs im PCMark 8. Inklusive starker Onboard-GPU ist der i5-6600K ein guter Prozessor zum ordentlichen Preis.
