  • 03/14/2012

    Summary

    As expected, given its spec, the Core i7-3930K makes the Core i7-3960X entirely dispensable. Why spend an extra €350 or €400 for such a small gain in performance (between 4 and 5%)?The Core i7-3930K is therefore a choice cut for anyone looking for a ve...

    Summary

    So the Intel Core i7-3930K. Following exhaustive and extensive testing we only have one question uppermost in our mind.Who on earth would bother to buy the i7-3960X?When we tested the i7-3960X it was a quantum leap ahead in all of our CPU based results an...

    Summary

    Even with pricing considerations to take into account, the Core i7-3930K will likely become the processor of choice for high-end PC enthusiasts simply because it currently offers the best platform (Sandy Bridge-E + X79) for the lowest price (compared to t...

    Summary

    While we don't want to give the impression that the i7-3930K is a slow CPU for consumer applications and games, it isn't significantly faster than the Core i7-2600K. This is a problem for Intel, as the i7-3930K is almost exactly double the price; LGA20...
