It's the common desktop platform that's shortchanged by Intel. There won't be socketed Core "Broadwell" CPUs any time in 2014. They'll probably arrive in 2015, they probably won't. Instead, Intel has a "Haswell" platform refresh planned for 2014,

Well Haswell will be a good improvement over Bloomfield :)

tot it is only about 10% diff on full load, and if 920 is OC-ed there should have not much diff other than power consumption? 

I wouldn't say 10%. Each generation has had at least 10% increase in performance among other things.

It's much more than that: http://cpuboss.com/cpus/Intel-Core-i7-920-vs-Intel-Core-i7-4770

Your comparing two different segments of cpus. 920 should be compared to sandy-e and ivy-e as they all use the enthusiast/workstation chipset.

Good point but I was just comparing to Haswell, not Sandy/Ivy-e.

I understand that but if you have a 920 upgrade path would lean toward x79 not z87.

Many people switched from x38 and and x58 with p67/z69 this was because sandy oced like a beast and they decided to take a lower price and loose features but still compete in performance due to oc. This is the essence of ocing. Sandy was a first in many years for a mainstream processor to oc so well. The problem is that due to this people expected ivy and haswell to do the same but since there hasnt been as big of a jump in technology you dont see the same durastic improvement which isnt uncommon. The proliferation of sandy and x79 taking its sweet time to realease cause many people to look at mainstream processors and chipsets for overclocking. This market has historically been the domain of entry level enthusist processors with their accompanying chipsets for many reasons. I hope the lauch of the i7-4820K will cause people to turn their heads and head back to wear they belong as I am really getting sick of hearing people complain how overclocking on the the newer mainstream platforms doesn't match up to sandy. The intels mainstream processors and chipsets were never meant to be their overclocking platform. They started it as a response to amd's lower end black edition processors. Another thing to mention is that the i7-3820 is still a great overclocker even though it doesnt have a k after its model. Yes its a bit more work than just changing a multiplier and setting it but thats traditional overclocking for ya. As a conclusion I am not saying you cant overclock on a mainstream platform (you nearly always could), just that tradidtionally enthusist platforms handeled it much better.

Sorry for that rant its just been eating me recently.
