i7 I7 Comparison Video

[Naveronasis]

Now that its been.... well a while. It would be cool to see some kind of.... I7 benchmark video... but not just... I7 6770. But do a fun benchmark between all the I7 generations (except maby the 5xxx x99 series since they really arent real I7's)

so grab like.... a (I don't remember all the sku's so bare with me) 1770 2770 3770 4770 and 6770 and see how they compare after all the years in modern games (I know they don't all use the same socket or ram etc but you know, do your best to keep it in the ballpark as Im sure you will :D)

My inspiration for this video was a friend of mine who is not super tech-savvy was trying to build an air cooled computer and carry it around ALOT (3-7+ times a week moved) I told him to probly grab an older 4770 because of the whole PCB thickness issue, cost, and since he is not the kind of guy who is likely to flash the bios (to patch the bug in 6xxx series chips (yes I know this is probably not critical)) that he would be better off with the older chip since there is not a huge hypothetical difference in overall performance aside from video processing etc. Since he is mostly a gamer. But it got me thinking.... from what I understand there really have not been huggggge changes in performance at least since the 3770k from what I understand so it would be fun to see practical benchmarks comparing them all  both in games, and maybe in some rendering/cpu heavy tasks as well to really compare just for fun.

2700K to 3770K to 4770K to 5775C to 6700K is like a 10% bump each time, plus some smaller improvements with architecture and efficiency and features along the road.

For a lot of things, they all offer similar results. Example - gaming.

It would still be fun to do a video about it though

Overall performance is about 10% better with each generation just like Swndlr said.

No real improvements has been done for last few years, just bumping performance 10% each time they release new generation of CPUs.

What was the SKU before the 2770... I think there was at least 1-2 i7's before that but I'm pretty sure it wasn't a 1770... Seems like the kind of thing I should be able to google >.> if I wasn't so damn lazy.

Consumer Grade: (I would do the video on these)

875k -> 2700k -> 3770k -> 4770k -> 6770k

Enthusiast Grade: (worth mentioning)
975 -> 990x -> 3970x -> 4960x -> 5960x -> 6960x (coming soon)

Yay wikipedia!

*edit made formatting less retarded*
*edit2 made 2 lists, 1 for normal i7's and 1 for enthusiast sockets because /reasons*

Here is i7 2600k vs skylake. Enjoy.

Depends if they even have the equipments for that stuff.

[Naveronasis]

Im sure between what they have on hand and the local scrapyard they can come up with the consumer chips

This is why I love this forum so much, people can bounce ideas off each other and the creator (Linus) actually reads these cool ideas that could potentially become a neat video!
