When $100-$150 chips with stronger and stronger GPUs become faster thn $500-$1000+ chips, Intel maybe need new GPU concentration?
It isn't Anand's review. Is it me or is Anand not publishing much lately?
ST Turbo isn't that useful on a server chip. Presumably you will be using your server chip at full load, or no load.
For gamers, the 4790K is going to be the better choice simply because of the cheaper DDR3 memory at this point.

Windows 7, with no Mantle tests? Oh come on, it's like they're doing their best to make multithreaded performance look bad... At least try to give us some idea of how it will perform with DirectX 12 games!
Not sure what kind of servers you run, but it certainly doesn't look like that at our data center.
Yes, but not many apps take advantage of more than 4 cores
I imagine a lot of companies use virtualization; Stick a ton of VMs on a host to get max utilization. So there's either no load (and power save), full load or load enough that turbo wouldn't do much. You only have to look at Intel's Big Server line - most products don't even have turbo at all.
5280k plus h100i seems like the sweet spot.
It's hard to say what the best stress test for any Haswell uarch CPU is, but you can bet that prime95 will give you temps far exceeding anything you'd ever encounter in real world use, even at 100% on every core. Personally with my Haswell system I simply used a ton of real world applications over a period of a week and at that point deemed it stable. Haven't had any problems since. But prime95 gives me ridiculous temps, temps that I never ever see in real world use (since prime95 causes Haswell to auto increase voltage..)
