Intel Ivy Bridge-E Core i7-4930K (ES) Review Published In China - Less Than 5% Improvement Over i7-3930K

wccftech.com

Intel's Core i7-4930K showcases modest improvements over its predecessor, the i7-3930K, with less than a 5% performance boost. While the transition to a 22nm architecture enhances power efficiency and PCI-e 3.0 support is a notable upgrade, its overclocking potential seems limited, maxing out at 4.5 GHz on air cooling. Compatibility with existing LGA 2011 motherboards is a plus, but the incremental performance gains may not justify the upgrade for all users. Overall, it’s a modest refresh that caters to those seeking efficiency rather than groundbreaking performance.
