Intel Core i7 4960X EE CPU / Asus X79-Deluxe Motherboard Review

WinRar is one of the most popular archive manager programs available. It can backup your data and reduce the size of email attachments, decompress RAR, ZIP and other files downloaded from Internet and create new archives in RAR and ZIP file format. You can try WinRAR before buy, its trial version is available in downloads.

WinRar's built in benchmark and hardware test can help us outline the performance differentials between each processor.

Thanks to the WinRAR benchmark's ability to make use of hyper-threading, the twelve-thread 4960X outperforms all of the competing processors that we tested. The IVB-E flagship part's increased clock speed, 25% extra L3 cache, and newer micro-architecture allow it to outperform the SB-E 3930K by almost 15%.

Haswell's 4770K can't compete with the IVB-E chip that has an additional two physical cores and four threads. The 4770K offers around 65% of the performance of Intel's IVB-E Extreme Edition processor.
