Now we have seen the basic performance of the Core i5-2500k processor, we wanted to compare it against the 2.8ghz Core i5 760 processor. This is a similar four core design and has been a big seller for Intel in the past, thanks to the excellent overclocking capabilities. This page concentrates on both processors at ‘out of the box' settings.
Huge gains all round, especially with the AES256 Crytography test.
A time saving of 27% is not to be sniffed at, shortly we will overclock the Core i5 760 to match the clock speed of the i5-2500k.
Another very impressive result for the i5 2500k processor, with 36% of the overall time saved.
Wow, those are mega processors. have to get me one
Great article and they really are good improvements. poor amd 🙁
These are certainly impressive, especially considering the price points they have achieved, which I certainlyw asnt expecting.
Compared to the last generation they have certainly delivered much faster processors. I wasnt expecting such huge gains
That ASRock fatal1ty board looks stunning doesnt it ? Very impressive overall platform from everyone involved.
Thumbs up from me. waiting in line like everyone else for my chip now 🙂
Those intel boards are really nice designs, they seem to getting better and better as the years and releases continue.
Well I had almost bought a 1100T from AMd, and now I really don’t know what to do 🙁 these are so damn good and the price points are excellent. the 1100T costs around the same as the 2600K and it wont really go past 4.3ghz.
There is a clear reason Intel are market leaders, and this is a good showcase of why.
Excellent, count me in when I get the funds up.
AMD need to answer this with something good in 2011, but I am not sure they can anymore. I remember the good old days of FX processors when they led the way. whatever happened 🙁
not that much faster than the 2010 core cpu’s people who say they are are complete idiots on avg perormance increase is about 10%
Francis, you’re completely wrong, it’s not that much faster at all, it’s anywhere between -5( meaning slower) to +10 as john already stated
