The Core i5 3570K processor revisited

Many moons ago we have shared performance of this processor with you already, but over time benchmarks have been updated repositioning the processor. Now we know a lot of people have a hard time overclocking these processors even over 4300 MHz, so as such these are all good reasons to retest this processor we say. So today a standalone review on the Ivy bridge architecture based Core i5 3570K where we'll learn you how to take it towards 4700 MHz as well.

Read the full review right here.

Yeah man for my 4.5ghz oc on my 3570k i need 1.28v which is fairly normal, but like you said, some guys get chips that require less volts which makes me green with envy haha

Yeah? Imagine me, looking at all you K's or unlocked Cpu owners... Imagine what I'm thinking of you unlocked Cpus. :cussing:

Because I'm a cheap ba****d.. lol! True story: I bought a 2600K for €200($267) on 2/2012(1yr ago) off Ebay and the mofo sent me a non-k 2600.
As it was the last thing missing besides the GPU at the time, I was so excited and my stupidity got the best off me. Instead of going through the hassle of sending it back, refunding me and wasting another month probably until all was sorted and then get a new one,
I told him to slap of the price €50($67) for a total of €150($200) which in my mind I though it was a great bargain. It was still a damn 2600 I said!

The whole time tho, I knew I would regret it in the future. But I made a choice to live with it.
Well I have for a year and now I've been trying to sell it locally lately for a nice 2700k/3770k.
