I can do 5.4+ on a couple of CPU (before delid) at low volts (1.35v) 2K plus and these CPU are yours ;)

We have a plan for a very high OC system 24-7 the testing of this concept starts on my arrival back from CES. Jumper you would approve ;)

I can do 5.5Ghz on my 2500K :p
 
Kaby lake, what a massive fail. Intel sleeping at the wheel.. sorry could but this thread is one of the biggest anti climax launches in the last 5 years. Can't take your positivity seriously 8pack.. hopefully zen will liven things up.

We will see where Zen is but if it really does have the same IPC as SkyLake/KabyLake what Intel did here was insure they still have the per thread performance edge, at least on paper bumping the out of box clocks and refining it a bit so it overclocks a little more.

AMD's F4 revision 8 core used at CES runs at 3.6Ghz base and 4Ghz Boost.
Compare that to the 7700K @ 4.2Ghz and 4.5Ghz Boost, thats about 17% higher clocks, that is where reviews will show up the differences and its where Intel and Intel fans alike will point and say "see, Intel still better, Intel higher value"

I hope AMD 4 core 8 threads Zen is at least 4Ghz base and 4.2Ghz Boost, if it has the same IPC, because if its not we will never see the end of Intel justification bar-charts and i shall have to kill myself! :eek:
