Good performance for the price. Highly energy efficient. Supports DirectX 11. Backward compatible with previous-generation motherboards.
Offers only minor performance improvements on highest-end last-generation CPU. Graphics still not comparable to what you get with a discrete video card
The new flagship CPU of Intel's mainstream line, the Core i7-3770K blends speed and power usage in one impressive package....
Excellent Power Characteristics, Nicely Overclockable, Strong Performance, Much Better GPU and Quick Sync, Compatible With Existing Socket 1155 coolers
Cheap Discrete GPUs Still Faster, CPU Not Much Faster Than 2700K
As we've mentioned many times in this piece, Ivy Bridge does not feature a brand-new microarchitecture designed to obliterate the previous generation. Rather, Ivy Bridge, and the 3rd Generation Core processor family based on the microarchitecture, is an e...
Significantly enhanced on-chip 3D-graphics performance, Highly overclockable, Compatible with many previous-generation motherboards, Reduced power usage
CPU performance only slightly boosted over previous-generation Core i7 chips
The raw CPU performance is only slightly better than its immediate predecessor's, but the Core i7-3770K is the first Intel processor we've tested with built-in graphics powerful enough to run the latest games, albeit at reduced detail settings. Read More...
Lower power than Sandy Bridge, although this isn't significant for desktop platforms, Faster and cheaper (if not by much) than Sandy Bridge CPUs, Intel HD4000 iGPU significantly faster than HD3000, Can be used in Z68series motherboards (with vendor BIOS support), Still the best performance in a mainstream consumer CPU,
Still only 16 PCIE lanes, Early production stepping doesn't overclock as well as current Sandy Bridge
Ivy Bridge is finally here, and if its performance improvements over Sandy Bridge are underwhelming, remember that Sandy Bridge set a very high bar. Without Sandy Bridge to compare it to, we'd be lauding Ivy Bridge performance and overclocking to the ...
and FVSo we went into this knowing this would just be an improvement on what we had already seen with Sandy Bridge. I was actually surprised at the improvements we saw on the CPU side of things, mostly due to the improvements in Turbo Boost. On the GP...
Intel is in the enviable position of having the enthusiast CPU market all to itself right now. AMD’s competition is increasingly focused on the fusion of GPU and CPU, but this has come at the cost of raw CPU performance. For those who use a dedicated g...
Maybe we've got complacent. Maybe we've got greedy. Or maybe Intel knocked the Sandy Bridge range out of the park and it's a tough act to follow. However you look at it, the Intel Core i7-3770K is most definitely the Sophomore Slump. Don't get us wrong...
In terms of performance, the new HD 4000 graphics chip is a more substantial update than the CPU portion of Ivy Bridge, delivering 50~70% higher frame rates in our gaming benchmarks. Unfortunately needs to be an order of magnitude better to really mak...
Those hoping that Ivy Bridge performance would prove to be leaps and bounds ahead of Sandy Bridge will be sorely disappointed with today’s release. That said, if you were expecting anything more than a 10–15% performance increase you skipped over the f...
Based on these early numbers, Ivy Bridge is pretty much right where we expected it on the CPU side. You're looking at a 5 - 15% increase in CPU performance over Sandy Bridge at a similar price point. I have to say that I'm pretty impressed by the gains we...
