per clock it performs the same
i wouldn't expect a 5960x to clock to 5ghz without ln2, would you?
then why would you hold the 1700/1700x/1800/1800x's to the same standard?
and if you want better gaming performance, disable four cours, overclock the remaining four.. good in pretty much any use case scenario
ipc is everything when it comes to disabling cores you dont need and overclocking the ones you do.
so wheres the oc specs?
oh thats right you have none and basing everything off 1 sample from god knows where that was submitted by an unknown and speculating it will OC great.
Sorry I'm with secksii till I see more data. Plus theres no inclination of developers steering to more core utilization.
Intel already showed us they have the technology for slapping on more cores to there die's. Only thing I want is amd to intel a reason to push harder.
my 3770k is only 20% off from the 7700k making it stupid to upgrade.
