Intel Core i7-3770K 3.5GHz (3.9GHz Turbo) LGA 1155 Quad-Core Desktop Processor
Cons:Offers only minor performance improvements on highest-end last-generation CPU. Graphics still not comparable to what you get with a discrete video card.
Pros:Good performance for the price. Highly energy efficient. Supports DirectX 11. Backward compatible with previous-generation motherboards Comment:
All the features of the chip are quite impressive. I have it on a Maximus V GENE board and I have no issues doing everything I do: Gaming, Program Development, Multi-Media Editing, and Web Development. I would have to say this is the best purchase I have made in quite a few years. |

Intel Core i7-3770K 3.5GHz (3.9GHz Turbo) LGA 1155 Quad-Core Desktop Processor
Cons:- Overclocks a bit worse than a 2700K with heat as the limiting factor. Mine did 4.7 at ~85C in IBT or 4.8 at ~95C.
Pros:- Slightly faster than the 2700k at stock.- Very low power usage at stock speed.- Paired with a Z77 motherboard, enables a lot of new features like intel usb 3.0, pci-e 3.0, lucid MVP, better memory overclocking cap. Comment:
The new Ivy Bridge processors are generally about 2% - 10% faster at the same clockspeed as the comparable Sandy Bridge (in this case the 2700k). However, they also overclock a bit lower as well, so the overclocked performance is mostly a wash even with high end cooling. It is still the processor to get since its about the same price with slightly lower power consumption when overclocked, enables new features on Z77, and hopefully will overclock better with some cooling innovations in the future. I ended up running mine at 4.7 for daily use, which is roughly about as fast as a 5 ghz 2700K. |
using asus maximus iv extreme 4.8ghz at 80 degrees with water cooling.
