ATX (304.80 millimeters [12.00 inches] x 243.84 millimeters
[9.60 inches])
Temperatures will become a factor when performance tuning
Not the performance gains expected with the new Generation
Draws slightly more power than previous designs. Less headroom for overclocking
Requires New Mobo / Socket
Not Much Faster Than Ivy Bridge
Only slightly speedier than previous-generation counterpart
Not backward-compatible with earlier motherboards
Only incremental CPU performance improvements over Ivy Bridge
New socket means a new motherboard is required for upgrades
Still only 16 PCIE lanes
Relatively poor overclocking
Limited GPU performance
GT3 (with embedded DRAM) not available on LGA1150
The Core i74770K operates slightly hotter than Core i73770K
Overclocking requires more patience than Ivy and Sandy
The overclocking learning curve is definitely higher
Really high temperature under load
Low overclocking potential
Small performance increase versus Core i53570K
High temperature under load
Compared to the price gap
The speed difference to the Intel Core i74770K is not very noticeable
Overclocking seems to be more sensitive to BCLK adjustments
Not a drastic improvement over Ivy Bridge
Another new socket
Weak overclocking
Lower possible overclock than the Ivy Bridge series
With no tangible competition in the desktop realm
Intel is no longer focused on raw performance
So there's even less to see in that respect this year. New platform/socket is not welcome.

Intel’s new top consumer CPU boosts integrated graphics a fair bit above last year’s Core i7-3770K, while ticking up slightly faster on our CPU-specific benchmarks. It’s a fine performer if you’re building or buying a new PC, though upgraders with a ...
Finally, we come to the conclusion for Intel's 4th generation Haswell architecture. The first thing to note ios that the PC landscape is definitely shifting with consumers focusing towards low power, efficient and portable products. Haswell is built keepi...

Haswell and its supporting "Lynx Point" Z87 chipset represent yet another incrementally refined iteration of Intel's mainstream CPU platform. Performance improvements at the CPU level are minor and will be unnoticeable except in benchmarks. The perfor...

In terms of performance the upgrade to Haswell is very reminiscent of what we observed when going from Sandy Bridge to Ivy Bridge: for the most part we saw very minor performance increases. Haswell looked most impressive in our encoding benchmarks where i...
We know you're all gagging to know how well the Core i7-4770K overclocks, so we'll be brief with our initial thoughts about the processor itself.Our benchmark results can be split into two distinct parts.On the one hand we have strictly computational, clo...

So, now enthusiasts have a general sense for how Haswell will compare to high-end Sandy Bridge, Sandy Bridge-E, and Ivy Bridge processors. You probably could have guessed this before even looking at our benchmarks, but the pre-production Core i7-4770K is ...
Abstract: Let's show the basic specs of all Core i7 processors released to date in a series of quick-reference tables. The Core i7 was the first Intel processor to bring an integrated memory controller, feature available on AMD processors since the Athlon 64. In...
Haswell may represent Intel’s newest processor architecture, incorporating many new features but its roots are still firmly grounded in the past. This combination has led to an interesting blend of previous generation highlights alongside new ideologie...
