Intel Haswell-E: Everything You Need to Know (i7-5960X vs i7-5930K vs i7-5820K)

2014-08-29
TGIF now what's going on it's Friday and like usual here at 2nd tomorrow we've got something cool for you guys that way you know if you're not not going to a party and crazy you can be putting the information into your head so you guys know launch date of the new haswell-e and the x99 platform all coming out today now unfortunately for us until this time in order to avoid NDA held everything very very tight to their chests and so well to have all these systems put in there we're bringing to you guys look at a slight beyond the curve love a full system everything for you guys just a day later which will be tomorrow on maƱana for my latin fans now with that said though today we're going to talk about what exactly it is what it's all about and what it's going to be bringing to the table for you then you can sleep and dream about and then tomorrow you wake up you can come and go oh wow hey that's what a system did so instead of just actually just putting a board in the test system this time we built two full-blown systems stuck to Windows 8.1 them both ran the tests comparisons and we're gonna bring all those numbers to you now before we go into the video why not just send a special thanks out to the people over at audible.com and if you guys want to get your own personal audio book for free just go over to audible.com forward slash tomorrow and check that stuff out with that said let's jump in and let's see what intel's brought to the table with haswell-e and x99 so the first thing to talk about is this is intel's very first 8 core processor that's a not isaiah 9om defencemen oh yeah AMD's had it but for Intel this is their first Nanjiani 8 core processor which means that you can have 16 threads running all at the same time and that's what actually this processor comes into play because in the hyper 30 and all that kind of stuff is what this thing really flexes its muscle gaming with this yeah if you're gonna do a bunch of video cards x9i is gonna be your band baby but if you're somebody who's crunching numbers doing all kinds of intense application type things that's where x99 is really gonna come into play the workstation slash gaming arena a key feature for enthusiasts out there is these things come made to overclock that's right these things are geared to overclock it says right on there description overclocking enabled so you people out there who wanted to get all intents and do overclocking this is gonna be a CPU you're gonna want to be looking at on top of that x9 is also the first desktop platform to bring ddr4 to the table we have some Corsair 21 33 megahertz stuff that we've gotten ours in its some seriously vengeful memory now for you PCI Express enthusiasts out there x99 offers 40 lanes of PCI e 3.0 availability now this thing's pretty incredible because you can use four discrete graphics cards in this and get no bottleneck whatsoever in your CPU which is what everybody's trying to avoid so if you're looking to do that Quad SLI or quad crossfire configuration X 99 is which you're gonna be looking at if you like that kind of stuff let's now take a break from our regular scheduled programming and take the trip back in time to the earlier days we've now arrived in 2003 where Intel had a single core cpu with 1.7 million transistors and was based off the 130 nanometer process as we jump forward in time at 2005 we see the first dual-core CPU based off the 19 an ohmmeter process a year later in 2006 the first quad-core CPU based off the 60 nanometer process we jump ahead four years in time for the first six core CPU based off the 32 nanometer process OOP all right now that we've arrived back in 2014 with Intel's latest haswell-e which is the 8-core processor version we see 2.6 billion transistors on the 22 nanometer process so you can see things have come a long way baby now just to clarify for you net pickers out there this history lesson was based off of intel's extreme processors real quickly let's touch upon the cpu that we're using an our test setup this is Intel's latest Core i7 59 60 X or extreme edition processor this is the top of a line of the three that they're releasing on this launch now taking a closer look at that die we see the die sizes 17 millimeters by twenty point two millimeters it's 2.6 billion 22 nanometer I hate 3d transistors and 20 megabytes of Intel smart cache few folks out there who kind of knew what is Intel smart cache essentially it's 20 megabytes spread across all the cores for faster access now with this launch there are three new SKUs and let's check those out first up we have the entry-level Intel Core i7 5820k this features six cores and twelve threads it has a 3.3 dirty rats base clock and 3.6 gigahertz herbo boost it features 50 megabytes of cache 28 PCIe lanes and retails at about $389 u.s. next up is the mid-level Intel Core i7 59 30k this one also has six cores and twelve threads the clock speed however in this is boosted up it's at 3.5 gigahertz for the base and 3.7 gigahertz for the turbo boost this also features 15 megabytes of cache and 40 PCIe lanes and retails at about $583 u.s. now last but not least the top-of-the-line Intel Core i7 5960 extreme with 8 cores 16 threads base clock however is a lot lower the base clock is 3.0 gigahertz with a boost of 3.5 gigahertz I know some people out there gonna go what oh my god it's gonna be slower but no it's not because those extra cores are gonna pick up all that stuff and make it even faster when it's processing information the next feature is something that also separates the 59 60 X from its two brethren and that is this one comes with 20 megabytes of cache and retails for about 999 dollars also real quick because I know people are going to ask this yes all three CPU SKUs use ddr4 memory they also all have a TDP of a hundred and forty watts and all use Intel's latest 2011 b3 socket alright folks so as we slowly wind this video down let's take a real quick look at what the differences are between X 79 and X 99 the X 99 offers eight and six core CPU support versus the six and four on the X 79 the X every nine features up to 20 megabytes of cash versus the 15 megabytes on x79 the 99 features for channel ddr 2133 memory verses for child ADR 3 1866 memory on the X 79 now the X 99 TDP is also slightly higher at 140 watts versus 130 watts on the X 79 there's also a maximum of 10 SATA 6 gigabits a second on the X 99 versus 6 on the X 79 Thunderbolt 2 support is also available on the X 99 while the X 79 offered no Thunderbolt support period now for those of you who are not familiar with Thunderbolt 2 it offers 20 gigabytes per second of bi-directional bandwidth which is 4 times faster than USB 3.0 and 20 times faster than firewire you can daisy chain up to six devices via a single port which includes 4k displays 2 DisplayPort 1.2 now last but not least though before I bounce out here I want to give another special shout to the people over at audible.com now I know a lot of folks out there have been giving me a lot of positive reinforcement by comments below saying hey dude we noticed you've been losing weight and all that stuff well I have to actually give thanks though to an author named David Perlmutter now his audiobook just totally opened my eyes to how eating a bunch of different food can affect not only your diet but how you actually think this book is called grain brain and it talks about all of these new grains and excess of sugar and how they affect your life basically bringing you down making you feel slower and sluggish and by just basically cutting these foods out of your diet it can literally change your lifestyle you would be just amazed on how cutting these foods out of my diet has improved my lifestyle quite a bit so if this is something that sounds good to you and you're a person now that you're going hey man I like what you're doing our work I'd like to change my life as well or hey if you're ready for the change check it out and you can do this very easily by just going over to audible.com forward slash tomorrow help out you helped out me help us all out and improve your lifestyle all in the same bucket all right folks that wraps up today's video and that's based like all the Nitty Gritty stuff that you really need to know is the layman about x99 and the new 5960 Xtreme process from the people over at intel like I said earlier our systems were almost complete be on the lookout for those video is very very soon like usual all this information will be down below that like button and hopefully my fans know what that is down there below all I got to do is click me show more and all that information to be down there I still get emails going hey I don't know what to do so for you guys that's where it's at go down there look at the show more button I'll be down there pricing availability so do you folks out there looking to jump in a new platform well if some stuff listed down there including a couple motherboards and all of the CPUs also we have a lot of stuff going on giveaways and all kinds of stuff for our subscribers so if you're not subscribed and you like what you see then hey you know what to do Elric techno tomorrow peace
