Tweak Town ran overclocking tests on some CPU's including the Ivy Bridge I7-3770K and noted the high temp of the 3770K. I have seen this mentioned before and it has me confused and worried. I was planning a new build with a 3770K. First of all the Ivy Bridge is a lower wattage processor. In electricity, wattage equals heat. They did not indicate what cooler they were using. Hopefully it was the stock cooler.

Re: I7-3770K Temps?
Actually, if you read their setup page, they have a H100 with 2xFans which would be way better than any OEM HSF. It would also be one of the best HSF on the market today, so I wouldn't be putting my hopes up. If you read the thread above, it explains why it's so hot. Basically, Intel wanted to leave some room for IB-E, so they used TIM instead of Solder to limit IB-E's overclockability for the masses.1.

Re: I7-3770K Temps?
Hopefully there should be revisions before going to IB-E. I cant afford a CPU like an SB-E (mainly bcoz of price), which would probably be out perform by future CPUs (maybe 1-2 years w/c isn't that long) at a MUch lowered price. Its not that practical at all, unless money is not object.Last edited by greatgin; 05-01-2012, 06:14 AM.Hardware Junkie, Tech Enthusiast, Pc Lover, Pro Gamer, Raffle-holic, Forum Raider,
