With the Core i7-4770K reaching 4.8GHz with relative ease on good Z97 motherboards, we aimed for similar with the Core i7-4790K. Sadly, at 1.28V - our usual input for stability using a x48 multiplier, ...
Faster clock speed: The Core i7-4790K runs at a 4GHz base clock, with a 4.4GHz Turbo Mode. That's an increase of 15 percent over the Intel Core i7-4770K's 3.5GHz base/3.9GHz Turbo clock speed, and ...
It's been just over a year since Intel launched Haswell, its first major core update in several years. Despite that core's notable improvements for mobile products and its improved graphics ...
The Core i7 4790K has already surpassed the 7 GHz barrier reaching an impressive 7003.38 MHz under some exotic LN2 cooling, that’s despite the new chip being out for less than a month. The feat is ...
The Intel Core i7-4790K ($350), code named "Devil's Canyon," isn't a huge update over last year's Intel Core i7-4770K, but it's enough of an improvement to replace that CPU as our Editors' Choice for ...
The Haswell refresh from Intel hasn't gone off with a whole lot of fanfare and for good reason; refreshes tend not to grab a whole lot of attention. Saying that, though, we've seen the new Z97 chipset ...
While owners of Sandy Bridge CPUs such as the Core i5-2500K might be reveling in the fact their purchases were sound ones (we certainly wouldn't disagree here), the fact remains that Intel has, slowly ...
Nehalem. Sandy Bridge. Ivy Bridge. Haswell. Year after year, Intel has produced ever more capable, more efficient CPU architectures with relentless pace. The strategy's known as the "tick-tock" model.
Intel has been slowly releasing information about its Devil’s Canyon processors for a few months now. If you’ve been on top of the processor scene, you probably know that Devil’s Canyon is the ...
