Intel's 6 core, 12 thread Ivy Bridge-E part offers the highest physics score in 3DMark 11. The IVB-E chip is 12.3% faster than the 3930K, according to 3DMark 11's physics test.
Haswell's 4770K is beaten by 30.5% in the physics test, although it does provide a slightly better graphics score, which could also be motherboard related.
Epic stuff. skimmed over it before work this morning, bookmarked for a good read later today. Next on my list to place my 3930k.
Well at least it seems to overclock a bit better than Haswell. Good info on the core to core tests. 4770k is the most efficient processor on a core basis.
4960x looks like a solid processor, but I wish AMD could offer more of a challenge then Intel would be forced to drop their prices a little. it is very very expensive. Still, for the target audience of people who render etc looks like a great buy.
AMD , where are you!???
Great review, haven’t read all of it yet, but picked up some interesting info. Way out of my price range. im saving for a 4570k and a new mobo. always good reading these ultra high end reviews, just to dream !
wow a lot of work in this one. I do agree with eran earlier in the review. Intel are kick ass, but the prices are hard to swallow. 4770k for a bang to buck is much better, but same with the last generation. these 6 core CPU’s cost a small fortune.
Good work Mr Hill.
best review of this I have read today. I love INTEL!
Ah the perfect partner. Blows the heck out of the FX 9590.
Did ASUS provide a release date for the X79-Deluxe?
LqM, the Asus board will be hitting retailers in the coming days.
Asus would release more boards or just the deluxe?
I wont get the 4770k. 4820 is much better IMO
what are the boot times and boot options on the “Asus X79-Deluxe”?
