ES samples, right? That doesn't say much..
Any Haswell review that was ES did great, but retail.. Well you know how that went.
I got lucky with my early batch though, 1.27v at 4.7ghz is not bad
Nah they said they also tested retail CPUs.
ES samples this late generally don't differ much from retail.

Ok fair enough
I still won't upgrade though, not until intel shows that x86refresh in 2019 or what's up with Zen+ then.
Your 4.7ghz looks good too for a 6core

Yeah agreed.
4.7 is pretty decent.
I want to see a 6950x/10 core equivalent of kaby lake that will do 5ghz
Until then I'll keep what i have.

The igpu isn't interesting. An old 8800GTX will beat my i7 6700k igpu in csgo easily, especially when it comes to smoke effects.

ASUS already tested many samples.
AVG will do 5ghz @ 1.29-1.35
