Benchmark Results: Just Cause 2
With anti-aliasing turned on, all the way through 2560x1600, the quad-core i7-875K turns in the best performance, followed by Intel’s Core i5-655K.
Conversely, with AA turned off, the scores jump around a bit, but remain in a fairly tight range.

BE vs K!! go K series
LGA 1366 i7 hopefully will be available soon. GRRRRRRRRR........
wow now that is some serious over-clocking... and here i am trying to push my 955 up past 3.93. i would have liked to see some liquid cooling tossed in to spice things up and maybe one more 5970... great job Chris!
Known--I'll talk to Thomas about getting some of that going in his next System Builder Marathon piece. He loves liquid cooling =)
still love my 930...
Intel did release the E6500K for the LGA 775, but only in Asia.
The only good thing here is that these chips will probably ship with heat sinks that don't suck and a good price drop for the i7 870. Otherwise, who cares, FSB stability on decent P55 boards has not been a problem. What the socket really needs from Intel is a better chip-set, not easier overclockers.
9. All prize winners are responsible for taxes and other surcharges on the prizes they win.
1099'd for $1499? I hate how contest prizes all have full MSRP on everything. Even if you win it end up costing you $500+ in taxes.
Intel makes good cpus, that's a given. Their problem lies in the pricing of such chips. I mean if you could buy a processor because you want to overclock it then the locked but cheaper one is as good as the unlocked one. Sure, it's more difficult, but I for one love a challenge.
Also, as a side note, I do have a problem with the benchmarks and more accurately with the conclusion you extracted from them. Who in their right mind would buy a processor, overclock it, and then do iTunes all day ... I mean come on, there's more to life then music ripping. What I'm saying is that the benchmark section SHOULD be remade entirely. Same old tests, that I could anticipate the outcome of every time, isn't a very compelling way to make a point. I do appreciate the game section though, at least i saw a new title.
Finally, very good news for serious desktop processing power that wont leave me with an empty wallet. The 875K is going to be my next CPU for 3D modeling and rendering. I hope it will keep me entertained for a while =)
Don't get me wrong but I was getting bored with the tiny world of ARM and Tegra and on the other side of the spectrum the hexacores and dual Xeons were far and away for my budget.

On Xtremesystems.org, I just read about a guy reaching 4.644GHz on air with his i7 930. Granted, he has a great chip, but by no means is a unlocked multiplier needed for high overclocks.
If I were to build a new PC, the 1090T/1055T would be very complelling.
These Intel CPU's are "cool", but they have "hot" prices.
1055t at 4Ghz here!!
For only 200bucks I got my 1055t to 4Ghz!!

Maybe I got a lucky chip...these things can go either way, but this thing got to 4Ghz with no more effort than a few bios settings and a $30 heat sink. It could get to 4.2Ghz or higher with another nudge..NO PROBLEM...
Either way

Throw some suggestions out there! I'm always watching the comments for feedback
Wonder why 875K is not a 32nm upgrade, we could see some serious overclocking at low power consumption.Still waiting for affordable (for me)pure processors without graphics with 4/8 cores on 32nm.
what's the big deal? I running ai7 860 at 4.0 on air stable!
The Core i7-875K looks like a great CPU to run Microsoft Flight Simulator X with.Please Tom's include more FSX benches.FSX make a nice benchmark.
Any word on the general availability of these CPUs?

These are going to hit after Computex. This was really supposed to be a preview

lol the bulldozer will kill the intel line finally maybe
