Looks promising. But is there any HUGE perfomance difference compared to i7 3770k? I mean apart from the multi threading.

I used this to compare but it's comparing based on specs rather thanreal time perfomance. Will go through your links. Btw, is Asrock reliable? Their support and build quality. How about msi? |

QUOTE(owikh84 @ Mar 2 2013, 11:42 AM) Google for 3770K vs 3570K then i'm pretty sure that you will get some lights. Thanks for the insight bro. Kinda clueless about ASRock. When is the dragon series releasing?Nowadays, ASRock is one of the most popular mobo manufacturers, on par with Asus, Gigabyte, MSI etc. They even hire the world's well-known overclocking Master, Nick Shih as Product Manager which shows their support towards overclocking products. MSI boards are good, but lately their mobo becomes less popular than other competitors and it is placed behind ASRock in the market. But recently MSI announced that they will release the flagship Dragon series mobo lineup to fight against Asus' ROG series etc. looks promising but i hope they are serious on this challenge. BIOS is the driver for overclocking. I'd say Asus and ASRock have their winning points on this. Their BIOS supports are awesome. |

Wanna ask all the i5 3570k users, what's your max stable/achievable oc? I7 3770k users are welcomed to share too.

QUOTE(wongtheboy92 @ Mar 7 2013, 11:15 AM) You can refer to the first page of this thread. There are listed users with their achievement. How many GHZ u wanna achieve and what cooling solution are u using? Water or Air Cooling? Thanks for the advice. Didn't know about that. I'm planning to get either i5 or i7 but still deciding. Reason I asked the question is because most of the i5 seem to oc till 4.5ghz to only.Btw, I noticed that you are using mpower board. How is it?

QUOTE(wongtheboy92 @ Mar 7 2013, 11:37 AM) Yeah the maximum clock achieved by 3770k is somehow higher than 3570k, I also found that Vcore needed is lower in 3770k for a same speed achieved with 3570k. But 3770k is faster than 3570k by default. Are u gaming or need a lot of rendering power? That's the thing. I do not want my oc to be limited. Heavy gaming and maybe a lil of autocad. Offset? It's a decent solid board, but it doesn't have offset mode if that's your concern. I'm in the process of getting either mpower, extreme 6 or maybe oc formula. |

Actually I'm gonna get the mobo and proc in April or May only. So I'll just wait n see what Intel has to offer. I already have a gfx card which is Asus hd 7970 so that's not a problem anymore.
Regarding mobo, OC Formula really caught my eye. Went through the specs and overview of it. |
