IVY BRIDGE IS HERE!!!

[Rigby]

Maximum PC | At Long Last, Intel Officially Launches 22nm Ivy Bridge with 3D Transistors, USB 3.0

Intel has now started shipping their new 3rd generation CPU's out. However, sales aren't starting until the 30th.
I'm definitely buying one of those for my first computer build since they have PCIE 3.0 capabilities, making my future build future-proof.

Probably going to get the i5-3570k.

Old news.
Saw this early in the morning.

fuuuuckkk when i start building imma have to get one of these ;X

Expensive computers are expensive.
And a bit overkill, don't you think?

All the desktop chips being released don't touch the $350 mark

Seeing as they are more efficient, smaller, more powerful, PCIE 3.0 capable, quad channel memory capable, you have no fucking clue what you're talking about.

Fuck 2012.

Thanks for info my friend, I've missed out on a lot of hardware news lately.

IVB doesn't overclock as well as SB (I can get my 2500k up to 4.9 ghz currently), I don't see much use for it in my desktop atm. I'm waiting for Haswell :L

There already preparing the 4th generation CPU's??? WTF!!

Intel releases on a tick tock model. Ticks are new architecture releases, tocks are changes/additions to the previous tick. Ivy bridge is just a tock. Haswell will be a tick.

10nm architecture? lolwut?

10nm architecture? lolwut?

If Intel sticks to it's track record, we'll be there in about 4 years time.

Are you kidding me? The 3770K has reached stable near 100% overclocks a number of times.

Actually no, it's the other way around. Ivy Bridge is the 'tick' and Haswell is the 'tock'. Tock signifies new micro-architecture using the previous ticks development technologies. Ivy Bridge's tick was shrinking the die down to 22nm and introducing trigate transistors in the manufacturing process. The Haswell's tock will be a new micro-architecture based on those new technologies.

As for me definitely going to grab myself a 3770K and up that bitch to a nice stable 5.6
