WINTERLORD :

Intel Core i7-4770k
processor models are
thanks
The i7-4xx0 (non K, S, T, R) are the baseline models. They have all hardware features activated. The clock multiplier is locked.
The i7-4xx0K series are the enthusiast models. They often have business and enterprise features such as VT-d, Vpro, and the brand new TSX-NI disabled. They are meant for gamers and overclockers.
The i7-4xx0S series are low power models. They have a slightly lower clock rate, but much lower TDP. Feature wise, they are the same as the baseline models.
The i7-4xx0T series are ultra-low power models. Same deal as the S series
The i7-4xx0R series (unreleased) will contain a more powerful IGP. Although it is presently unreleased, Intel's specification shows it as having the same features as the K series processors, with VT-d, Vpro, and TSX-NI disabled. I am unsure if the clock multiplier will be locked.
