4.7Ghz maximum overclock, on air I assume. Not great, but not terrible either. At least the temperatures were a little better than a 4770K.

I'll hold onto my I7 920 bought in 2008 for a while longer I think. Will upgrade to Haswell -E, or Skylake at this point.

He used a H80.
Ill be putting mine under a H105 but I really don't think it will be much better. Ill still be very happy with a 4.7ghz overclock to be honest.
 
People also need to remember that this is the same clock vs clock as Haswell, there is no ipc improvement.

Even at that Intel unleash the beast event (i posted the results in an earlier posts) the overclocked results ranged from 5-5.4GHz using all sorts of tricks including super cooling the air going into air coolers/water coolers with LN2 vapour.

I just dont know what to make of it so far.


Edit,

 
They are effectively the same chips. I wouldn't hold my breath for increased oc clocks that makes a swap worthwhile, only if your buying new.
