Model overview based on user reviews  
The Intel Pentium Coffee Lake series offers a budget-friendly option for users looking for a processor that doesn't require special cooling and can handle modern games when paired with the right components. While some users appreciate the new technology and added cache, others express disappointment over the minimal differences from the previous Kaby Lake series and the increased price. The processor is praised for its out-of-the-box performance without the need for overclocking, making it a straightforward choice for those on a tight budget. However, some users feel that the price increase is not justified by the performance improvements, and they suggest considering older models or AMD alternatives for better value. Overall, the Intel Pentium Coffee Lake is suitable for basic gaming and everyday tasks, but may not meet the needs of users requiring higher performance for complex tasks.
Pros

Cons

for games and it doesn't strain my budget, here the memory and the board will be more expensive
26 January 2019 
i've been using the G4560 since it came out and I'm not disappointed. Since the budget is tight, I'll go with the Pentium on a Coffee Lake core. Firstly, it's new technology, cache has been added, and both these Pentiums can handle all modern games, even with a GTX 1063, DDR4, and what's with the VX technology. People say it's better to get an old i7, no argument there, and I'm a fan of new technology, even if it's budget. When I get rich, I'll install an i5.i7, but a fresh one. Only those who really use new memory will understand, and those who try to render on a Pentium or do more complex tasks won't understand me, for which Intel i7 is suitable, and new Ryzens with multithreading would be a better choice, something like that. If you're short on money, go for the Pentium, and most importantly, choose the right board with only a future upgrade of the processor and video card, and that's all. Good luck.
worth the money and doesn't require special cooling

Better take the pentium kaby lake!
12 April 2018 
i once trashed the old stump (stump - pentium, old - kaby lake, new - coffee lake) with garbage (of course! I know what this product is! Although I greatly exaggerated due to the prices for g4560 which fluctuated around 5k (!) at the time, due to the reason described below, plus my own emotional attitude towards this product played its part, I was just disappointed in it, considering "they advertised it everywhere, almost running it with a 1080ti in UHD!", and I have some user experience with it): so now the new stump has come out... and how to put it gently... IT'S THE SAME STUMP with minimal changes! And it would be fine if Intel did what AMD was planning and did the same, just with +10% performance, for the same money... BUT NO! The new "hyper stump" starts at 5k (!) against the Old "hyper stump" which starts at 3.5k!
P.S. I need a team of couch engineers to explain the difference between THIS and the OLD stumps! (besides price and frequency with iGPU)
P.P.S. referring to AMD, I meant the 2nd generation of Ryzen (Zen+).
The main advantage of the stump:
Price (around 20k assembly with g4600 on integrated graphics or even g4560 + gt 1030) LOST! As the price has almost doubled! Not only that, even new motherboards on the H chipset are on average 1,000 more expensive than the old ones, for the old stump!
The second advantage of the stump - future upgrade on used i7 was improved since the new i7 is 6/12, not 4/8 as before, promising x3.5 performance instead of x2.5
The third advantage of the stump, like all Intel processors, it does not need overclocking and it "performs out of the box," which is true!
what are the differences between this processor and Kaby Lake NOT CLEAR AT ALL! (except for the price, of course), It's the same situation as with the i3 7100, why do you need it when there's a Pentium Kaby Lake! And if the i3 at least has the questionable advantage of AVX, then the New processor (Stubborn processor XD) doesn't EVEN HAVE THAT!

Team combat in Minecraft didn't work. But the AMD FX-4, which is half the price, went with a bang.
Um, what are the advantages? What are you about?

New generation low-cost

Pentium Gold G5600 is an updated low-cost chip from the eighth generation of Intel processors. Its main feature is support for multi-threaded Hyper-Threading technology, which virtually doubles the number of cores. Compared to the previous line, the G5600 looks like an easy fix — the clock speed has increased to 3.9 GHz, the integrated graphics have been slightly upgraded, and the maximum supported memory frequency is now 2400 MHz.

Good gaming experience

In terms of power, the G5600 provides mediocre performance. The built-in UHD Graphics 630 video chip, on the one hand, allows you to do without a full-fledged graphics card, on the other hand, toys like CS:GO and Dota 2 will start only at minimum settings. But if you combine its forces with a graphics card of the GeForce GTX 1050 level, then this chip will be able to handle any hits of 2018. However the FPS level will rest on the graphics settings and optimization of the system itself.

Low heat generation

So why is the new line good and is it worth paying extra? It is and is in the updated LGA 1151 socket, which expands the scope for a possible system upgrade in the future. The choice of processors for the second version of LGA 1151 will be more interesting. It is also worth noting the low heating of the processor — the simplest cooler will cope with heat dissipation at the level of 54 W.
