Drdeath Posted April 13, 2012 Posted April 13, 2012 Efficiency is a large factor in heat, as well. Chances are that the smaller die will be more efficient than the larger die, so that might offset the heat factor. Anyways, the release date is April 23rd, I think. We'll find out soon enough. http://www.slashgear...aunch-12222610/ YUP! Waco, I think we all need to wait. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
d6bmg Posted April 13, 2012 Posted April 13, 2012 Only 10 more days, and we will see teh improvement over 32nm current gen processors (if there is anything significant). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rieds Posted April 13, 2012 Posted April 13, 2012 i saw today microcenter added a bunch of xeon e3 processors and dropped the price of the 2600k 80 bucks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boinker Posted April 15, 2012 Posted April 15, 2012 i think there's gonna be a whole bunch of WTS threads soon... Means I need to save for Upgrading the Wiferig. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nyt Posted April 16, 2012 Posted April 16, 2012 An ES IB tester explained to me a few things yesterday : Why the temps are so high - 95 watts out of a 22nm die is hotter than 95 watts out a 32nm die like Waco said. And you cant even blame the onboard GPU for the heat since its not even used with a discrete card with MVP disable. Where a SB at 4.8GHz would be 72C on air at 4.8GHz, an IB would be high 90's C - Without the iGPU !! Ivy Bridge is on such a compact die that air or water cannot cool it properly. Cascade, SS can do a great job, with Dry Ice many records will be broken and with LN2 you can imagine and even see the potential it has. But its not a fail, an IB at 4.55GHz delivers more points than a 5GHz SB in Synthetic benchmarks (about 25 more points in 3D Mark 11 CPU test) Ivy Bridge is a tick, not a tock so dont expect miracles. SB was a tock, you dont get two tocks after a tick. IB does what Intel made it to do, perform well and gives the biggest increase in iGPU performance we've ever seen in a tick so its far from a fail. If you want to see something amazing like SB was to Nehalem, wait for Haswell in Q2-Q3 2013 Although you will need a new mobo for LGA1150 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
El_Capitan Posted April 16, 2012 Posted April 16, 2012 So, they need to make Sandy Bridge / Ivy Bridge equivalent, but with a 64nm die so we can overclock it on air to 5.0GHz with load temps at 54C? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
d6bmg Posted April 16, 2012 Posted April 16, 2012 Yup, i7 2600K for $199.99 plus tax. Hopefully it will last. I'm going to pay a visit at my uncle's in between 20th and 25th and planning to buy 3770K on its launch day. And if 2600K continues to be @200, I'm defenitely buying one just to see it afterwards.
