Intel Ivy Bridge Discussion

[amjath]

So it means "s" or "t" cannot be overclocked???

They said those are for hyper threading so if i dont OC then I could go for "s" or "t" right??

Differences between i5 2500k,i5 2500s and i5 2500t:
Compare Intel® Products
^All that would result in lower performance of the 's' and 't' processor

i get it thx a bunch

Overclocked review.

Tends to run very hot.

Intel Ivy Bridge Overclocking with the Core i7 3770K and Core i5 3570K CPUs - Power and Temperature Tests :: TweakTown USA Edition

97C at just 4.8GHz!!!

BTW, the FX8150 yields awesome scores.

It's obvious it is a bad sample or maybe Intel have limited overclocking potentional in ivb, maybe they are trying to keep their SB-E Sales up.

Bad chip.

Neither bad chip nor bad sample.

22nm process will take time to mature. Plus, the chip has shrunk too much compared to the sweet die size and perhaps also has current leakage problem. This is the best Intel can give at the moment in terms of thermals.

Power consumption is well under control btw.

^ No 'valid' screenshot released yet.
And, its Intel processors that is being discussed about, not any AMD processor which generally takes time to mature.

lol.. it is fabrication process being discussed by me, not any processor. Every fabrication process takes time to mature.

Plus, there was a thread on Xtremesystems where another i7-3770K ES was showing high temps.

 

[topgear]

but even for ES chip the temps are just too hot ... They OCed well with low vcore and Tweaktown has used Corsair H100 - so the temps should be a little lower.

The 3570k looks a promising though on temp side - it's max temps was 76c but with just 200 Mhz more speed the 3770k reached 97c which is not acceptable and this is really alarming :

We actually got it to hit 105c at some points and throttle down.

But let's wait for some more mature chips like they said :

The most important thing to remember, though, is we're still dealing with early versions of the CPUs.

check asus,msi,gigabyte global sites panther point chipsets motherboards are showing now with a coming soon logo

 

[amjath]

Awesome news is that Intel ll be shipping Ivy Bridge to end customers before the end of April.

More Leaked Benchmarks from Intel's Ivy Bridge

If temps are that much then would be a worthy upgrade or not ??

 

[Skud]

For SNB users I doubt, unless you are moving from i3/i5 to i7. Temps may come down with the latest revision which will be ultimately released to retail.

^ reminds me of the time when FX8150 was overclocked to 8GHz or something like that.

 

[dfcols71]

pcie-3 enabled only with ivy for cpu and gpu

^ reminds me of the time when FX8150 was overclocked to 8GHz or something like that.

but that was not with all the cores enabled .. let's see how far ivy bridge can go with 2 cores enabled
