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??

Overclocked review.

Tends to run very hot.

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.

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.

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

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.
