Although in high-performance desktop, Intel has no competitors, the company continues to further develop this area. Confirmation of these words is the recent announcement of a new generation of processors Intel Ivy Bridge-E platform for Socket LGA2011. ...
Intel's Core i7-4960X (and Ivy Bridge-E in general) is easy to sum-up, but not for the greatest of reasons. I'd love to be able to write that IV-E is a major improvement over SB-E, but it isn't. I'd like to say that it dominates the Haswell-based Core i...
When I first got my hands on the 3960X back at its launch I was blown away by its performance. Moving on to the 3970X Intel once again kicked things up a notch. Now today with the i7-4960X they have once again upped their game. The 4960X topped the cha...
– Is the Ivy Bridge-E Extreme?Summarizing the Intel Core i7-4960X Ivy Bridge Extreme processor is like summarizing the Sandy Bridge Core i7-3960X and Haswell Core i7-4770K in to one thought. While it has a stronger core than Sandy Bridge, the Ivy Brid...

Intel tells us that the Core i7-4960X should be available within the next two weeks with system builders and in the typical retail and e-tail channels. Intel's new line of Ivy Bridge-E parts pretty much falls into line with what we expected when we first...
Those of you looking out for the overclocking section of the review will have no doubt noticed that there wasn’t one. The reason for this being that we had very limited success overclocking the Core i7-4960X and with a narrow time frame to get the revi...
The X79 Chipset has been a very capable enthusiasts chipset for awhile now but some features I think should really be available to the high end at this point such as more than two SATA 6G ports. also more Intel chipset USB3.0 ports should also be on the ...
I remember writing a tepid conclusion to my Sandy Bridge E review almost two years ago. At the time, both the LGA-2011 and LGA-1155 platforms were on the same architecture - Sandy Bridge. My conclusion ultimately boiled down to how much having 6 cores mat...
