Awww, yeah. Considering gains were this impressive from a few minor tweaks, it'll be interesting to see how much Steamroller improves things. applaud.gif

Ordered a CVF yesterday and a 8350 tomorrow so I could do my own comparison

It would be great if these would drive down ivys prices. I read tge other day that each ivy quad only costs intel 9 dollars to produce

There is alot more to it than just labor and material costs. Most of what your paying for is research and development. It isn't easy designing a new cpu and process. Yes. they can probably reduce the price a bit, but there is alot more to processors than just materials and labor.

I don't think Intel's prices are bad. The 3570K is a bargain. I just wish the 3770K was 289.99

I've seen that exact price for a 3770k in a microcenter ad.
189,99 for the 3570k
