Ivy Bridge: underwhelming from Anand's report

Recommended Posts

Final WordsIvy Bridge will bring about higher clock speeds thanks to its 22nm process, however the gains will likely be minimal at best. Intel hasn't been too keen on pursuing clock speed for quite some time now. Clock for clock performance will go up by a small amount over Sandy Bridge (4 - 6%), combine that with slightly higher clock speeds and we may see CPU performance gains of around 10% at the same price point with Ivy Bridge. The bigger news will be around power consumption and graphics performance.-----------I guess maybe w/ more overclockability it could be worth spending more $$ over Sandy Bridge. What's your take?Noel

Well 6-7Ghz and we may finally get FSX running where it needs to be.......not with Ivy Bridge though!

With the die shrink it should be a better OCer I think. So at stock it will not be much better but it will show in its strides when overclocked, also with its superb efficiency over SB.

I'm just as excited about the efficiency improvement as I am the performance gains. That's a big deal.

Why efficiency? Do you really care about less watts? I mean OK, it produces less heat, less watt, less heat, but with a good cooler, how much potential is really open? Instead 5.0, you get 5.1?

This will all make more sense once it gets released. No need to argue the implications when we don't even know the details yet wink.png

I've been saying this all along. Made for Ipads, Laptops etc. Why I went with a 2700K instead of waiting around for it.news will be around power consumption
Can't imagine an iPad being able to use that horsepower but I don't know. I was so hoping IB would be a serious upgrade over SB, as in maybe 20-30% more, but that sound iffy now. From what you see here, how much total CPU power increase could I expect going from a Q9600 at 3.8Ghz to a SB or IB at 5.0Ghz? Maybe 35%? That's very significant, but I can certainly see the machine bogging down w/ only that sort of increase. My GPU has room for improvement though too. Not too convincing really, for an upgrade. Was hoping more for 60+% increase in total processing power.

I will upgrade if I got the cash cos its like rebuilding the comp, which is what I just love doing.

Err well, I can explain. Its coming from solar power.tongue.png
That must be some solar plant... did it even fit in your garden?? LOL.gif
