Lets post the official reviews in here

To start things off, Intel's official Skylake launch slides:

Last slide: up to >30% better performance (for me). In what? Where's the appendix?

In the footnotes:

3 year old PC = 3770k
2 year old PC = 4770k
1 year old PC = 4790k

The benchmark used was "SPEC CPU2006"

SPEC = Standard Performance Evaluation Corporation

Synthetic benchmarks, as per usual from Intel.

We'll have to wait a few hours for the official reviews to show average performance etc.
