Our own benchmarks aren’t quite ready for sharing just yet, but check out what Tom’s Hardware has found in their tests. Along with being Intel’s first 14nm processor, the Broadwell CPUs are the first to use Intel’s new Iris Pro 6200 on board graphics, which look to be an absolute monster. We’re still testing ourselves but do plan on releasing the results of our overclocking test here on this blog another day, so stay tuned for that. Despite the lack of the k moniker, the i7-5775 and i5-5675C are fully unlocked and ready for some extreme overclocking upwards of 25% or more.
In addition to the 5% Ghz for Ghz performance increase resulting from Inter Process Communication (IPC) improvements, Broadwell processors do two things extremely well: overclock and on-board graphics.įirst, the overclocking. With stock core clock speeds of 3.3 GHz and 3.1GHz (3.7 and 3.6 Turbo), you may be a little underwhelmed with these new processors at first glance, especially when compared to the 4.0/4.4Ghz speeds of the i7-4790k. Unlike previous Tick releases though, Broadwell does not completely replace its preceding architecture, but instead supplements it with two processors that are compatible with the current socket and chipset – the Core i7-5775C and i5-5675C. The “Tick” phase of Intel’s usual “Tick Tock” product release, Broadwell processors are Intel’s first 65W 14nm die shrink of the Haswell architecture. Today we’re excited to announce the immediate availability of 5 th Gen Intel Core processors, formerly known in our world as Broadwell.
