Because, like it or not, clocks for clocks, Ivy Bridge is 5-10% faster than Sandy and Haswell is 10-20% faster than Sandy.

Judging your two recent threads you don't seem to be upgrading anything for years ;)

wat? People are still worried about temps with the 10000 aftermarket coolers?

There are other differences, which justify the upgrades. Simple things like having a bigger igp, improved memory controller and a integrated voltage regulator moving a piece from mobo to cpu. Slight speed difference. 

 

Edit: Another thing is jumping to a newer socket also lets you take advantage of the new features the mobo manufactures implement into the new boards.

 

a 2500k will work great.

a 3570k will work great.

a 4670k will work great.

 

but in the end, the 4670k is still newer and using newer tech, components and upgrades.

Yes they are all the same when overclocked since Sandy. Yes they run cooler. No I did not want to buy a used part from some random dude who might have overclocked to 5ghz on a stock cooler. :)

 

If they still made Sandy as a new product? I might have gone with one if they weren't more then what I paid...

 

You see Haswell does have one really nice feature. Dirt cheap z87's = all you need to OC.

 

My board and chip were 280 with tax COMBINED at Microcenter. Good luck finding a I7-2600k and a motherboard for the same price. 

 

A new 2600k? This is cheapest I can find, and who even knows if they are new.

That is more then I paid for my chip and board combined. My performance is like a let's see. Looks like I am slightly faster then a 5.2ghz Sandy and I am on air. Granted I did ok on the silicon lottery and on average Sandy is probably better, but it sure wouldn't have been cheaper...

Now you know why I went with Haswell. Thank you for letting me tell you this bedtime story.

I agree with this thread. 

There is no point in getting a 4XXX processor. None. It's more expensive, can't overclock as well/has more heat (go hand in hand), and is just as dead a platform as the 3XXX processors. No positive to it imo.

This is why I always suggest a 3570k over a 4670k. 

I know Sandy Bridge means 2XXX processors, but still. The same is somewhat true in regards to them VS 3XXX processors. Except there are positives to a 3XXX processor. 

It's just silly. I feel the 3570k is the sweet spot. New enough to rock, but old enough to be cheap.

Damn you Sandy people are always rubbing it in! To think I could have had this fast a computer in 2011... My damned OC e8400 kept being "just fast enough" to run the latest games. It prevented me from the glory of being a Sandy owner. I will never forgive you Wolfdale.
