Core i7 5960X - 5930K and 5820K processor review




We review the Core i7 5960X (Haswell-E) 8 core processor and 6-core 5930K and 5820K processors, we smack it on one of the long awaited X99 motherboards. Intel's most high-end processor SKUs just got updated with three new models, the top dog being the enthusiast class eight-core processor series aimed at enthusiasts and pro-consumers. The Intel Core i7-5960X and other Haswell-E chips are released into the market in September 2014 and are based on the new socket LGA2011-V3 infrastructure and DDR4 quad channel memory.

No 3930k to compair with? I guess I will be keeping my 3930k that does 4.7 with a mear 1.328 volts and my R4BE board for the time being. I already had a draft set up on ebay to sell my parts, glad I waited and read some reviews first.

Im with you on this one, still a very detailed review, thanks

will see how that goes.. The one who wants my 4770k is really interested in it for LN2 lol
Test that CPU with IntelBurn test at 4.9GHz max memory and see how long the test last with that voltage.
