Intel keeps delivering the best desktop processor money can buy. Great efficiency and features. Overclocking is well supported on the 'K' processor. Backward platform compatibility is a big win for
Performance
Overclocking
Power consumption
Good performance for the price. Highly energy efficient. Supports DirectX 11. Backward compatible with previous-generation motherboards.
Compatible with many previous-generation motherboards
Reduced power usage
GPU performance greatly improved compared to last generation
Support for DirectX 11
Driver maturity improved
22 nm production process
Turbo Boost to dynamically adjust graphics clocks
Completely noiseless
HDMI Audio bitstreaming supported
DisplayPo
Lower power than Sandy Bridge
Although this isn't significant for desktop platforms
Faster and cheaper (if not by much) than Sandy Bridge CPUs
Intel HD4000 iGPU significantly faster than HD3000
Can be used in Z68series motherboards (with vendor BIOS support)
Still the best performance in a mainstream consumer CPU
High performance
Includes HyperThreading technology
High overclocking potential
Good price based on performance
Low power consumption under both idle and load

Integrated graphics handle well most tasks but are not fit for gaming
Perform behind AMD's A8 APUs
Offers only minor performance improvements on highest-end last-generation CPU. Graphics still not comparable to what you get with a discrete video card
Cheap Discrete GPUs Still Faster
CPU Not Much Faster Than 2700K
CPU performance only slightly boosted over previous-generation Core i7 chips
Limited GPU performance
No dedicated GPU memory
Still only 16 PCIE lanes
Early production stepping doesn't overclock as well as current Sandy Bridge

Abstract: Although I didn't spend much time playing Batman: Arkham Origins, I remember the game rather well after testing it on no less than 30 graphics cards and 20 CPUs. Arkham Origins appeared to take full advantage of Unreal Engine 3, it ran smoothly on afforda...
You may wonder why it took us so long to review the FX-8150? We received the processor last month and had to cover the Haswell Core i7-4770K first along with Computex 2013 which had put alot of load on me. But here we finally have the Bulldozer review and...

Abstract: In the recent release of 4 th generation (Haswell) Intel Core integrated processor graphics (IPG), Intel placed significant focus on changes made to Quick Sync transcoding technology included with the HD graphics portion of the chip. As the review develop...
While there isn't a substantial increase in GPU performance between Richland and Trinity, AMD's GPU performance lead over Ivy Bridge was big enough to withstand Haswell's arrival. Note that although we're comparing performance to Haswell here, Richland ex...

High performance, Includes HyperThreading technology, High overclocking potential, Good price based on performance, Low power consumption under both idle and load
High temperature under load, Low performance iGPU
The advantage of Hyper-Threading makes the Intel Core i7-3770K the most powerful processor of the Ivy Bridge series. With its larger cache and Hyper-Threading, it was able to win this comparison against its smaller brother. It also ran cooler than our ...
