Ivy Bridge is the codename for the third generation of Core i3, Core i5, and Core i7 processors from Intel, manufactured using the new 22 nm process. This new generation of CPUs presents minor enhancements compared to the previous microarchitecture, Sandy Bridge. The most important one is the upgraded embedded PCI Express controller, which is now 3.0, doubling the communication bandwidth with the video card if a PCI Express 3.0 model is installed. Of course, the CPU continues to be compatible with older video cards, working with 2.0 or 1.0 bandwidth.
The Intel Core i7-3770K CPU has a default clock multiplier of x35 (3.5 GHz) for its standard clock and x39 (3.9 GHz) for its turbo clock. We were able to increase the Core i7-3770K clock multiplier to x42 making the cores run at 4.62 GHz, a 32% increase over the standard clock of 3.5 GHz.
Below are the results of some popular benchmarking programs and applications:
On the PCMark 7 overall score, the Core i7-3770K and the Core i7-2600K achieved the same performance level, with the new CPU achieving a score 15% higher than the AMD FX-8150’s.
On Photoshop CS5, the Core i7-3770K was 7% faster than the Core i7-2600K and 17% faster than the AMD FX-8150.
On After Effects CS4, the Core i7-3770K was only 4% faster than the Core i7-2600K but 35% faster than the AMD FX-8150.
On 3DMark Professional 11 the Core i7-3770K achieved a score 4% higher than Core i7-2600K’s and 35% higher than AMD FX-8150’s. Source
