3770 not k

[KING_OF_SAND]

So I am a little disappointed with the new Ivy bridge 1155. One of the main reasons I got a 2500k as apposed to a 2700k was to use that extra money towards a 3770k. But it seems that is not going to happen. I will be sticking with my 2500k that I was lucky enough to get to 5.5ghz with H100, and maybe get a 2700k and might get lucky. I am expecting the 2700k to drop in price soon. Just my 2 cents.

I don't quite get the purpose of this post?

The i7 3770K clearly has an unlocked multiplier. And you don't say anything about the standard 3770....

No k meaning I am not ok with it.

Oh right.

That wasn't exactly obvious

 

[Ibanez81]

what voltage and temps are that 2500k at?

 

[KING_OF_SAND]

what voltage and temps are that 2500k at?

1.55

Not a 24/7 clock mind you.

yeah people expected miracles from ivybridge i dont quite get it myself since its using 1155 it obviously wouldnt outperform the 2011 cpus

I was never expecting miracles, I have learned never to expect that from ANY company just surprised if they do. I was expecting maybe a 20-25% boost in performance over current 1155 because of the 3d transistor and 22nm. But I was never expecting it to beat 2011 without being overclocked.

I'm sorry to say this, but those weren't realistic expectations at all mate. This was a die-shrink, not a completely new architecture..

Ha ha. I thought 15% was ambitious

TBH,he has a point

Kentsfield/Penryn

change in arch(Tick vs Tock,no?),HUGE drops in temps and O/C(or am I missing something here?

 

[Calibretto]

This is a tick

Not a change in architecture

It's SB crammed into less space

 

[MaXiMiZe]

It was predicted to be between 5 - 10% with the odd benchmark hitting 15.

OK,I got that bit wrong,Sb was the Tock,this is the tick

But,My point still stands(kinda)

65/45

32/22

So,look at my other post and put those numbers with what I said and,well.......Makes sense to me,it just does not seem to work or be worthwhile atm......

 

[KING_OF_SAND]

This is not just a die shrink it is also a new kind of transistor, unless they did not add this new tech in the 1155 models. They use a new trigate transistor which according to intel, increase performance quite a bit as well as increased efficiency.

 

[nepas]

Yep,these wonderful 3d tranisitor gates on a 22nm chip,and....................

tbh,I dont think these things will take off untill a chip revision/(this is more likey)a major change in the BIOS of mobo's.

WOW 3d transistors, in a smaller sandy bridge arch, so they turn ON to OFF, and back ON again just like the old ones!!

Now I see where the 15% performance increase comes from....duh

all sarcasm aside ,more gates on a smaller transistor leads to exactly what we got, more heat in the chip when overclocking, not good for 80% of us on this fourm.

Intel is not lying , IB chips do preform better!! at stock clocks, they do the same work as a SB chip, using less power which brings less heat, so performance is greater, just not the kind most of us are interested in.

For most of us when pushing the chip, more gates is more surface area that heats up, on a smaller die, physics laws dictate it has to run hotter!! It's gonna take a new arch to take advantage of these new transistors to get what we call more performance out of them. Wait for the TOCK!!!
