Ah, didn't realize the ARK info for Haswell was already online.It doesn't. But there's no need to ask, look it up on Ark for yourself.
Doubtful.At what, exactly? The guys that held out, only to get a processor that's 10% faster?
At the end of the day, their processors will be faster faster than yours.
I think us 2500K guys are still laughing.
I guess that is lucky for AMD though...An 8% average gain in general, but more than a 10% increase in power consumption. Is this a step forward or backwards?
Some predicted between a 1% and a 5% gain in gaming. This Haswell is looking poor than imagined.
4.8GHz SB ~= 4.66GHz IVB ~= 4.3GHz HW, so it is conceivable that a lot of OCed HWs will be faster (if ASUS' statement of 70% of chips achieveing 4.5GHz holds true).
I would like to see a 4.30 GHz quad-core anything with higher Linpack score than I posted above.
Last I seen it, stock 4770K was getting over 170GFlops with AVX2 in Linpack.
Microsoft and Intel are trying to kill the PC market pretty hard.
Now I wonder what the hell is Intel going to do with the 14nm node shrink. It's crystal clear that temps is a huge issue that it is unable to fix.

The desktop market is the market that matters least. Also, last I checked, AMD was trailing Intel by several years.Yeah Intel is up a creek without a paddle. AMD and others are crushing them. This Haswell failure will be the end of them no doubt.
Relevance, please. Last I seen it, 8600 GT was faster than 8800 GTX in H.264 decoding.
is sarcasm really that hard to detect?The desktop market is the market that matters least. Also, last I checked, AMD was trailing Intel by several years.
It looks like a serious problem to me. According to Anandtech there is 11.8% increase in power consumption, with only 13% performance increase. You'd almost get the same results if you just overclocked an Ivy Bridge. What happened to the super savings from the on chip voltage regulator and the improved 22nm process?An 8% average gain in general, but more than a 10% increase in power consumption.

Considering there are people on this board that actually believe what Hulk stated, yes.is sarcasm really that hard to detect?
It's relevant because it threatens your apparent need to justify owning a 2500K. Relax your ego, and evaluate Haswell objectively.Relevance, please. Last I seen it, 8600 GT was faster than 8800 GTX in H.264 decoding.

Also applies to the new sleep states, which aren't supported on the desktop processors that have been reviewed. They're not really relevant at all to desktop, but in mobile, and particularly with tablets, it's a big deal.Applies all in partially loaded situations, and at same TDP, which isn't what a 84W 4770K is versus a 77W 3770K.
Relevance is that AVX2 optimized applications can be that much faster. Since Intel Burn Test(which is practically Linpack) is an FP test, that takes advantage of AVX, same will be true with AVX2.
