Great review. On the last page where it says: "Realistically at 1.30 Volts you should be able to get the Core i7 4960X at roughly 4400 MHz on all cores. We need 1.40 Volts for that." I think you meant to say 5960X instead of 4960X.

Hilbert can you test the 5920/30k on OC? Not a single review out there that does it..

.. so lame. Thanks for the review Hilbert! Been waiting for this one, let me tell you. Im surprised to see the pricing vs performance of the 5930k as I really thought that it would be the one to get, but seems like its not so. Also, nice to see the performance increase with the OC.. I can now say though that I will skip this and wait until Skylake.. although this new chipset and cpu lineup would crush my 2600k, the gains are not enough to justify dropping 1k plus on a new chip and mobo. And so, I will wait 🙂
it was a joke, chill out. It was probably the first time I have ever said it.

I still feel like my choice to upgrade from my Q6600 to my 4790K was a better choice than waiting for this. Thanks for the awesome review as always.

Im with you on this one, still a very detailed review, thanks :thumbup: EDIT: I might even swap mine for a 4790k that does 4.9ghz @ 1.370v, http://i.imgur.com/ou0Sk2J.png will see how that goes.. The one who wants my 4770k is really interested in it for LN2 lol 🤓

I guess I won't be upgrading from my 4960X anytime soon. Those FPS gains from the 5960X are barely noticeable. And the Read/Write difference is about 10% so nothing to write home about there either.

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.

Test that CPU with IntelBurn test at 4.9GHz max memory and see how long the test last with that voltage.

Man that 5820K is looking really tasty!!! And that DDR4 memory, so sweet! And i really need a new system... I need more MB reviews and some OC results on that 5820K to make up my mind. Great review as always!

I can't, dont have the chip its in SouthAfrica atm lol and from what I saw IBT is not ok for Haswells, tooo hot. 5ghz needs a hefty 1.475v, so its not the best looking Haswell refresh. But a free trade sounds nice, will see with postage, if its 60€+ then no go. Might as well save up extra 40 and buy 280L H2o cooler and lower that temp gap 😀 Sorry for offtopic 🤓

Damm Amd just got Smashed! 8 cores 16 threads if only it didnt cost $1000 dollars! But even the 6 core 12 thread is more then enough, iam going to start saving for a system like this.
