i7 4930k vs i7 4770k geekbench score.

[KOtech]

Hey y'all! 

 

Looking at the charts, how much better would the 4930k preform than the 4770k. My build will become a hackintosh (yes it's possible with the 12 core beast) but i wonder if the expense is worth it. I will use the machine for HEAVY editing, PS, AE, PR(Premiere) aswell as MAYA and particle creation.

 

Is there an estimate in percentage, about performance between the two, that's available?

Looking at the Geekbench score, that 7k jump seems quite significant. Any thoughts?

Well very little in single core applications and 50% for multi core. Cause 6/4= 1.5 For heavy editing get the 4930k.

It's a 6c,12t vs 4c, 8t. Obviously when using all cores the 4930k will stomp the 4770k. If you are only using 8 cores though, the 4770k is a clear winner due to it's newer architecture.

Usually I would say no, but since you are doing heavy editing, yes.

Thanks y'all!

 

Does anyone know if there are to be any updates to the hexacore? Will intl update them in the near future?

When X99 comes out apperently and there are 12 core xeons already

Is there any release date set ?

X99/Haswell-E  is supposedly coming in Q2.  There migth be a octa-core for the 5930k.

Not that I know of

I believe they worded it that only the extreme series (5960x or 5970x) would be 8 core. not 100% sure though. (I think this is how past 6 cores were released, only the extreme editions had it)

Quick google search said: The new platform will have a new socket, called 2011-3, support 4-way DDR4 memory, and the new i7-5930K processor (among others), which is an 8-core "budget model" around $600.

Around june, if thats that case, i\ll without a doubt wait to get better performance.

Nothing is set yet. But yes you are rigth it was 6 on the ex and 4 on the no ex. Then next gen was 6 and 6. Maybe maybe not. I hope so. I'm waiting for Haswell-E.

Found this also! http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/95177-haswell-e-leaked-pricing/

Awesome, i think i could wait and start by buying another ssd and putting them in raid 0.

 

Thanks y\all!

Unless that's directly from intel I wouldn't read much into it.  When intel released a new "gen" of cores, it was only the extreme edition CPU's that got the extra cores.  Maybe they've changed their minds, but until intel themselves releases concrete info I wouldn't give any thought to it.

yeah ineed. But except my graphics card i would change out the whole system, so i think the wait will be worth it. And adding that extra ssd to my current system could work marvels with file-caching (mainly in photoshop and AE)  and improving overall speeds significantly. 

Thanks man!

If you have the money now and need your system ASAP I'd say to hell with waiting (especially since we have no idea when it's coming out for sure)

 

But if you've still got saving up to do then I'd say wait for sure

This guy! :wub:

 

answared my answer instead of me!

 

Thumbs up!
