Just ordered my Intel upgrade.

I have just completed my order for my bits for my Ivybridge build. I have been using a 1055T for the last two years and It was pretty much up to the task until I bought my 680GTX and saw 50-70% usage on my games (Shogun 2, Skyrim and Battlefield 3 for example). I feel really dirty now as I have just spent all that money. Tell me it will be worth it? :eek:

When I was trying to find solid figures on what improvment I would see with this rig moving from a 1055t, I didn't have a lot of luck.

So yeah, When I get in tonight I am going to collect some benchmarks and take notes of GPU usage and general performance so people can see what sort of gains moving from P2 to IB/SB can net you.

Am interested in seeing the results from old system and new system.
