Intel Ivy Bridge i7-3770K Gaming Benchmarks

[jnom]

I think you guys are not getting the ivy platform. Intel has two phases during development of a platform called tick tock.
One is moving and innovating to a new platform(tock), in this case the sandy, the next is a derivative and improving the manufacturing, power consumption and performance ratio on that platform(tick), this case the ivy in 22nm. They call ivy tick+ because of the gpu enhancements which is in preparation for another tick phase, Haswell.
This is the way Intel develops its cpu.
Not really bad new for me because I don't have sandy and on a standard non oc'd setup the performance of 10-20% is a big deal especially if you will be paying the same price anyway for sandy and ivy, in that case its a no brainer to get ivy.

its normal because its just a "TICK" in intel's TICK-TOCK strategy...

so dont expect much... its just simply a DIE shrink of SB...

the "TOCK" is what we should wait for if you're really looking for huge increase in performance and new architecture...

exactly... +1 ko ani... basta ako mo palit jud kog Ivy Bridge karong june or july... adtong december pa nako gibaligya akong Phenom II rig unya akong toshiba laptop is dying na pud so this is Ivy is a pretty good news for me

again, kung naka sandy na ka, there's no reason for you to upgrade and as stated above, walay major enhancements but simply a refinement of Sandy... so stop whining guys...
