Intel® Core™ i5-8600T

The Intel Core i5-8600T is a desktop processor with 6 cores and 6 threads, built on the Coffee Lake architecture (14 nm process). It launched in Apr 2018. Clocks run from 2.3 GHz base to 3.7 GHz boost. A 9-MB L3 cache backs the cores (1.8 MB per core). It addresses DDR4 memory up to 128 GB across 2 channels. The chip drops into the FCLGA1151 socket and exposes PCIe 3.0 (16 lanes). Rated TDP is 35 W. Notable platform capabilities: Extended Page Tables (EPT).

The Intel Core i5-8600T scores 2,261 in single-core performance and 9,151 in multi-core performance (PassMark CPU Mark ratings). From those two ratings Feex computes 4,549 for overall performance, 9,114 for productivity performance, 9,103 for creator performance, 9,094 for engineering performance and 9,071 for gaming performance. Its multi-core throughput works out to 1,525 per core, 1,525 per thread and 262 per watt. Its computed efficiency index is 769. Its performance index is 56, so its overall performance is 44% below the Intel Core i5-12400 (index 100). Each bar shows the score as a share of a reference ceiling, which is the larger of the 99th-percentile score across the Feex CPU database and a fixed baseline.

Scores for individual PassMark CPU Mark test categories. Higher is better. These are measured test scores, not computed from the single-core and multi-core ratings.

In the individual workload tests the Intel Core i5-8600T scores 24,732 in integer math, 21,356 in floating-point math, 121,597 in compression, 3,098 in cryptography, 787 in physics simulation, 7,575 in vector SIMD, 44 in the prime sieve and 16,593 in sorting. Higher is better. Compared with the Intel Core i5-12400, it is 58% below in integer math, 53% below in floating-point math, 47% below in compression, 73% below in cryptography, 28% below in physics simulation, 51% below in vector SIMD, 34% below in the prime sieve and 27% below in sorting. Each bar shows the score as a share of that workload's reference ceiling, the larger of the 99th-percentile score across CPUs with a recorded value and a fixed baseline.

The Intel Core i5-8600T has 6 physical cores and runs 6 logical threads. It does not support simultaneous multithreading, so its thread count equals its core count. It runs at a base clock of 2.30 GHz and boosts up to 3.70 GHz.

The Intel Core i5-8600T is a desktop processor, belongs to the Intel Core i5 family, uses the Coffee Lake architecture, carries the codename Coffee Lake and is manufactured on a 14 nm process. It launched in Apr 2018.

The Intel Core i5-8600T has 384 KB of L1 cache, 1.50 MB of L2 cache and 9 MB of L3 cache. That adds up to about 10.9 MB of cache, or 1.81 MB per core. Each core has 256 KB of private L2 cache.

The Intel Core i5-8600T has a 3-level cache hierarchy: L1 at 384 KB, L2 at 1.5 MB and L3 at 9 MB. L3 is the largest level and makes up about 83% of the cache listed here.

The Intel Core i5-8600T supports DDR4 memory, addresses up to 128 GB of memory and uses 2 memory channels. It does not support DDR5 and LPDDR memory.

The Intel Core i5-8600T includes integrated graphics (Intel UHD Graphics 630) and clocks the graphics up to 1.15 GHz.

The Intel Core i5-8600T uses the FCLGA1151 socket, supports PCI Express 3.0 and provides up to 16 PCIe lanes.

The Intel Core i5-8600T has a rated TDP of 35 W.
