Upgrade your system with the Intel Core i5 8th Generation processor (Coffee Lake/Kaby Lake-R), a proven balance of speed, efficiency, and value. Ideal for everyday productivity, business desktops, light content creation, and casual gaming, this CPU family delivers responsive multitasking and excellent power efficiency across a wide range of models.

What to expect

• Strong multi-core performance: 8th-gen i5 desktop chips (e.g., i5-8400, i5-8500, i5-8600K) offer up to 6 cores for smoother multitasking and higher frame rates in optimized games and apps.

• Efficient mobile options: Laptop variants (e.g., i5-8250U, i5-8265U) feature 4 cores / 8 threads, delivering great performance with long battery life.

• Intel UHD Graphics (model-dependent) for 4K video playback and everyday visuals without a discrete GPU.

• Intel Turbo Boost for on-demand speed when workloads spike.
