Our Intel Core i3-8300 benchmarks and review find this low-cost server CPU to be an interesting value. With its high single threaded performance and capable multi-threaded performance for this price band, it is an interesting Intel Xeon alternative
The Intel Core i3-8300 was released recently as part of Intel's second wave of Coffee Lake processors. Compared to the i3-8100, it adds 100 MHz to the CPU clock and 2 MB of cache. It lacks the unlocked multiplier of Ryzen, and its integrated graphics are not nearly as fast as those of Ryzen G models. Is it still a good option in the $150 CPU market?
