Faa

At least provide some information on the subject instead of being lazy and just saying "LOOKIE HERE GUYZ DIS LINK HAZ ALL DA ANSAS!!!"

This.... is not actually impressive.... I might be switching to AMD for sure this time when DDR4 comes out

How was this ever going to be impressive... This is neither a tick, nor a tock. This is a release intel had to do just to drive the motherboards sales of the 9 series up...

I have a feeling these things are going to OC a lot better thanks to the new TIM. maybe we'll see the "everyone runs their chip at 5GHz" days again just like good ol' sandy bridge

It depends, for example I'm going to build a PC this summer, since I don't have a desktop that means it's going to be from scratch. I'm going to buy a i7 4790k because of that... not to upgrade from an i7 4770k, there's always a market for new builds like mine. 

 

Not saying you're wrong, I'm just pointing out that there are variables. :)

If the i7 base clock is really at 4.0GHz on all cores IMO that is a significant improvement over the 4770K

 

fingers crossed for solder ( doubtful)

 

complete speculation until official info is released, however lots of these little leaks seem to be true :)

See post #15 I've updated it with the new z97. I tried to tell you that last time. If it's going to be the same for the new 4790k it would be nice to have 4.4GHz right out of the box and hit 5GHz with no troubles.

I have heard things like Intel worked on their wafers to achieve better quality chips, their quality control since ivy bridge got out of hand

 

At least provide some information on the subject instead of being lazy and just saying "LOOKIE HERE GUYZ DIS LINK HAZ ALL DA ANSAS!!!"

I did :P

I do recall, you attempted to educate  me on how the stock turbo frequency worked on the chip in my computer. A chip you have no personal experience with, the same chip I have owned and learned about over the last year with multiple boards.

 

Here was your input word for word :)

 

 

 

 

4770k:

base/idle: 3.5GHz

1core: 3.9GHz

2core: 3.8GHz

3core: 3.7GHz

4core: 3.6GHz

Whenever you enable xmp and if the motherboard supports the agressive turbo you get for 4 cores load 3.9GHz. Can show you a screenshot with the default settings prime95 cpu just boosting to 3.3GHz (from 3.2GHz) with all cores loaded and at 1333MHz and when I change the memory speed to 1600 or enable xmp I get 3.8GHz in prime95, just save me this effort cba doing this

 

I agree. mainboard vendors have different have different turbo settings.

 

you need to understand intel has a turbo spec for each sku and that has nothing to do with how mainboard vendors wish to apply their turbo values.

 

setting xmp does nothing for turbo boost  on the two Z87 boards i personally own.

 

 

 

once again a 4770K turbos like this not what you posted above in your comment, this is intel spec, mainboard vendors have nothing to do with this specification, they apply their own turbo rules.

 

 

(intel spec not open for debate)

base/idle: 3.5GHz

1core: 3.9GHz

2core: 3.9GHz

3core: 3.8GHz

4core: 3.7GHz

 

So its interesting to speculate how some users are suggesting perhaps only one core is hitting 4.4GHz...could very well be true.

 

feel free to reply when you have a comprehensive understanding of

 

intel specification

 

mainboard vendors auto rules

I agree. mainboard vendors have different have different turbo settings.

Which is wrong, you either have the default which is 3.7GHz or you have the agressive turbo that will run at 3.9GHz (see my source below pointing this out). If mainboard vendors go out with each their own rules, the cinebench scores would have been all over the place.

 

 

you need to understand intel has a turbo spec for each sku and that has nothing to do with how mainboard vendors wish to apply their turbo values.

Why are you still talking about the default turbo? The agressive turbo you get from enabling xmp will override the default turbo and you'd get the max turbo clock backuped by this source: http://be.hardware.info/reviews/5380/50/19-intel-z97-chipset-moederborden-review-de-nieuwe-generatie-getest-benchmarks-cinebench-115

I admit i was wrong about how it boosts, but how the default turbo works wasnt even my point at all.

4.0GHZ base clock speed! Nice! Will probably buy one for my new computer

I think this should be a decent upgrade from my 2500k.

Wonder if this will finally make it worth an upgrade form my 2600k for pcie3... or maybe I'll wait for DDR4. :|

I guess speculation is it will do 5.0 GHz on air.

I'm not so sure, the results should be similar to those who de-lidded haswell chips, the on-board power phases will still be super toasty.
