Haswell-E review (hardwarecanucks)

I don't need X99, but I am getting one.

The time has come for many to empty their wallets

Just like to point out, Intel 8 core at 3.3GHz (I'm assuming that's the all core speed) = AMD 8 Core at 4.7GHz, with the Intel being at almost half the TDP

 

The GHz war is truly over

 

GHz war has been done for AT LEAST 5 years. The problem is that 90% of the people dont understand that it doesnt really matter how fast your cpu runs if the instructions per cycle isn't good.

 

The only people who still thought the "war" was going on are people who will buy the 5960x so that Call of Duty can run at 200fps on their 60hz screens.

 

The amount of games that are bound by the cpu in either speed or cores are VERY few and far between, same with ram. Just buy an i5 and get a better gpu. Leave x99 for people like the linus media group who will actually use it.

Or, you know, if you're an enthusiast and like the idea of having a £750 processor and no girlfriend

The i7-5820k is only $20 more than the 4790k at my microcenter, but the damn x99 mobo is $400 lol.
