The X79 platform has a high entry price with limited benefit to users. Higher memory latency than LGA1155 processors
High power consumption when overclocked
No QuickSync
Not faster than 2700K
Inconsistent compared with other high-end Intel chips. Partially unlocked multiplier limits overclocking potential. Requires X79 Express motherboard
Video card
Cooler
Not a fully unlocked processor
You lose Intel's QuickSync technology if moving from LGA1155
Abstract: Core i7-3960X is undeniably fast. But at more than £800, it’s hardly an option for most enthusiasts. We got our hands on the Core i7-3930K and Core i7-3820 to gauge their overclocked performance and determine if they’re able to best the flagship part. ...
Abstract: We will be running each through a selection of real world tests to establish how they compare to the latest offerings from AMD, and finding out how well they overclock using the unlocked multiplier.
Abstract: While the Core i7 3960X was based on an 8-core die with 2 cores disabled, the just announced entry level Socket 2011 CPU, the Core i7 3820, is based on a different die. Intel will also offer 4-core Xeons based on the same smaller die. Any implications?Goo...
El nuevo procesador Sandy Bridge-E de Intel, el Core i7 3820, nos ha dejado un sabor agridulce. Sí, debemos reconocer que el Intel Core i7 3820 ofrece un rendimiento adecuado en cualquier tipo de benchmark, sin duda. Su capacidad de overclock también n...
Clairement, ce nouveau processeur Intel Sandy Bridge-E est sans doute le plus intéressant des trois modèles disponibles sur le marché. Non pas que les deux autres ne soient pas performants, loin de là, mais ces derniers s'orientent réellement plus vers...

Le Core i7-3930K est donc un met de choix pour qui est à la recherche d'une plate-forme très haut de gamme, mais il ne faudra pas perdre de vue que pour en exploiter son plein potentiel il nécessite des applications capables d'exploiter ses 6 cœurs ou à d...

Consommation plus élevée que sur la série i7 2000
Un processeur ultra haut de gamme à tout point de vue : ultra rapide dans les calculs, au top dans les jeux et une consommation électrique qui, si elle est élevée, n'explose pas pour autant. ...

Al termine di analisi comparative di nuovi processori è nostra abitudine introdurre il "Moneybench", strumento che abbina le prestazioni velocistiche ottenute dalle cpu in prova con il loro prezzo d'acquisto ufficiale così come indicato dai produttori nel...
Abstract: Seit Jahren ringen Intel und AMD um die Vorherrschaft im Desktop-CPU-Markt. Seit geraumer Zeit ist Intel seinem Rivalen immer mindestens einen Schritt voraus. Wenn es um die pure Leistung in den meisten Anwendungen geht, liegt Intel derzeit deutlich vorn....
Nun ist er also da, der erst "bezahlbare" "Sandy Bridge"-E-Prozessor für den Sockel 2011. Doch lohnt eine Anschaffung des Intel Core i7 3820? Oder ist doch ein "Sandy Bridge"-Ableger aus der Core i-2000-Serie für den Sockel 1155 die bessere Wahl? Die Antw...
