00:00:00.040 --> 00:00:06.200
for years now the high-end LGA 2011 socket had bells and whistles like quad

00:00:04.600 --> 00:00:10.800
Channel memory support higher overall memory capacity more PCI Express Lanes

00:00:09.000 --> 00:00:15.320
so therefore inherently better support for multi-graphics card setups and

00:00:12.719 --> 00:00:20.560
finally support for processors with more than four cores so why is it that core

00:00:17.880 --> 00:00:26.240
i5s and core i7s on the mainstream socket have been so popular with Gamers

00:00:23.000 --> 00:00:26.240
overclockers and

00:00:28.960 --> 00:00:31.960
enthusiasts

00:00:32.360 --> 00:00:38.200
with the purchase of a qualifying Intel processor SSD or knck you could

00:00:36.120 --> 00:00:41.520
instantly win an Intel gaming Jersey and be entered in the draw for the ultimate

00:00:39.760 --> 00:00:47.239
system click now to learn more in the LGA 1366 days all the hardware nerds

00:00:45.039 --> 00:00:52.239
went enthusiasts because that's where the hot offerings like the core i7 920

00:00:50.000 --> 00:00:58.039
could be found but starting with sandybridge back in early 2011 Intel

00:00:55.239 --> 00:01:02.840
started releasing their newer processor microarchitectures on the mainstream

00:01:00.120 --> 00:01:08.640
platform first before bringing them to the Enthusiast platform so particularly

00:01:06.119 --> 00:01:13.119
for gamers it was better to buy the lower end product for better

00:01:10.840 --> 00:01:19.040
single-threaded performance often better overclocking much lower prices and even

00:01:16.439 --> 00:01:25.159
more up-to-date feature sets Thunderbolt for example has never been available to

00:01:21.320 --> 00:01:27.759
DIY consumers on LGA 2011 in fact the

00:01:25.159 --> 00:01:32.600
only real reason to go Enthusiast was to get a six core processor but unless you

00:01:30.000 --> 00:01:38.000
wanted a pretty slow Zeon those started at $1,000 until a year ago when the

00:01:35.240 --> 00:01:43.000
4930k became available at the value price of nearly $600 still pretty

00:01:40.600 --> 00:01:49.280
expensive but now they've finally done it with the release of the LGA 20113

00:01:45.520 --> 00:01:52.880
socket and x99 chipset and the 5820k

00:01:49.280 --> 00:01:55.479
5930k and 5960x CPUs to go with them

00:01:52.880 --> 00:01:59.439
Intel has finally addressed my complaints and made the final step

00:01:57.280 --> 00:02:04.680
towards reestablishing the really the sense ability of their two socket system

00:02:02.399 --> 00:02:10.920
we've got LGA 1150 for mainstream consumers and LGA 20113 for enthusiasts

00:02:07.920 --> 00:02:17.599
with all CPUs on both sockets featuring the latest Haswell micro architecture

00:02:13.680 --> 00:02:20.160
except now in addition to more PCI E gen

00:02:17.599 --> 00:02:25.440
3 Lanes except the 5820k which actually gets fewer and quad Channel memory we

00:02:22.720 --> 00:02:28.680
get support for ddr4 which means higher speed memory at lower voltages with

00:02:27.319 --> 00:02:33.000
lower power consumption and higher capacities in the future Thunderbolt

00:02:30.720 --> 00:02:40.400
expansion capability better base clock overclocking and every LGA 20113 CPU has

00:02:37.800 --> 00:02:43.879
at least six processing cores and 12 threads with hyper threading with the

00:02:41.760 --> 00:02:50.159
th000 extreme Edition featuring eight cores and 16 threads but before you get

00:02:48.040 --> 00:02:56.319
too excited it's not all pure sunshine and rainbows on LGA 20113 there are no

00:02:53.280 --> 00:02:59.000
core i5s so in terms of pricing Haswell

00:02:56.319 --> 00:03:04.519
e Enthusiast grade chips start where regular Haswell well and Devil's Canyon

00:03:01.159 --> 00:03:08.239
ones leave off at around $400 on top of

00:03:04.519 --> 00:03:09.959
that x99 boards and the ddr4 to go with

00:03:08.239 --> 00:03:13.440
them are more expensive as well due to the higher cost of the chipset more

00:03:11.760 --> 00:03:16.440
complicated board design and the engineering costs associated with

00:03:14.920 --> 00:03:20.480
bringing a new platform to Market and then for the RAM it's just in such low

00:03:18.599 --> 00:03:25.200
volumes in terms of manufacturing that it tends to be very very expensive every

00:03:22.640 --> 00:03:28.799
time we transition memory Technologies but you guys didn't watch this video to

00:03:26.840 --> 00:03:32.519
hear all that boring oh it's expensive stuff so let's show off the hardware for

00:03:30.640 --> 00:03:37.239
today's performance overview of the brand new high-end

00:03:34.280 --> 00:03:42.040
5960x first up is the board ASUS sent over their creatively named x99 Deluxe

00:03:40.360 --> 00:03:47.200
the followup to our favorite last gen board around here the x79 deluxe and it

00:03:44.879 --> 00:03:53.040
comes with some serious upgrades first up is those ddr4 memory slots that

00:03:49.519 --> 00:03:54.920
support up to 64 gigs of ddr4 and with

00:03:53.040 --> 00:03:59.360
the right kit we've confirmed this with the 3 GHz high-speed g-skill memory kit

00:03:57.519 --> 00:04:05.920
that we ran our performance numbers with up to to 3,000 MHz ddr4 with some

00:04:03.319 --> 00:04:11.560
creative XMP implementation that actually uses the

00:04:07.560 --> 00:04:14.120
125 base clock strap and lowers the CPU

00:04:11.560 --> 00:04:18.799
multiplier but kept our system stable throughout benching somehow in spite of

00:04:16.479 --> 00:04:23.040
the slightly overclash CPU speed so there you go next we've got dramatically

00:04:21.120 --> 00:04:28.199
improved storage capabilities the last gen board was stuck with only two native

00:04:25.520 --> 00:04:33.120
SATA 3 ports and four with a Marvel controller well now we we get up to 12

00:04:31.440 --> 00:04:37.880
with four of them capable of being used for up to two SATA Express 10 GB ports

00:04:35.960 --> 00:04:41.840
and then on top of all that we get this fancy little bracket that allows an m.2

00:04:39.840 --> 00:04:46.199
SSD to be installed that'll run at 10 gbit per second as well USB 3 has gotten

00:04:44.680 --> 00:04:50.440
a significant upgrade as well with a total of 14 ports supported although I

00:04:49.000 --> 00:04:54.479
personally wouldn't have minded seeing a couple of these replaced by a PS2 Port

00:04:52.400 --> 00:04:57.400
some of us still like them um but since we're checking out the rear iio now

00:04:55.960 --> 00:05:01.440
seems like a good time to mention the upgraded networking we've got better

00:04:59.560 --> 00:05:04.759
better Intel networking now with slightly better performance lower CPU

00:05:03.199 --> 00:05:09.320
utilization and more software prioritizations options we've also got

00:05:06.919 --> 00:05:14.479
three spatial stream onboard AC Wireless that boasts 1.3 GB per second maximum

00:05:12.400 --> 00:05:17.759
theoretical bandwidth and then finally not related to networking but also on

00:05:15.840 --> 00:05:20.840
the back panel we've got upgraded onboard audio that features some of the

00:05:19.440 --> 00:05:25.400
same technology that we've become accustomed to seeing on Rog boards like

00:05:23.360 --> 00:05:30.440
Amplified headphone output and audio grade capacitors and whatnot onto the

00:05:27.680 --> 00:05:35.720
UEFI BIOS there's been an aesthetic and functional overhaul we get all the fancy

00:05:33.000 --> 00:05:40.000
little features that z97 users have been enjoying like the configurable favorite

00:05:37.680 --> 00:05:43.720
submenu simplified overclocking and raid setup and finally inbios temperature

00:05:42.280 --> 00:05:49.160
sensor controlled fan curve configuration that can handle either DC

00:05:46.120 --> 00:05:51.919
or pwm control on any fan header on the

00:05:49.160 --> 00:05:56.479
board or the little Molex power daughter board that you can reposition and that

00:05:53.919 --> 00:06:00.400
acts as a controllable Fan Hub elsewhere in your system giving you up to eight

00:05:58.039 --> 00:06:03.560
controllable fans oh yeah and it looks pretty sweet too I guess with white

00:06:01.720 --> 00:06:08.840
shielding on the io and a sexy matte black PCB this is a big improvement over

00:06:06.160 --> 00:06:14.360
the last generation gold thing they had going on on to the CPU today we'll be

00:06:11.400 --> 00:06:23.120
focused on the Big Kahuna the 5960x this is an 8 core mother of a chip

00:06:18.000 --> 00:06:25.160
that comes clocked at really 3 GHz Bas

00:06:23.120 --> 00:06:28.360
that's it I mean sure it's got 20 Megs of level three cach compared to 15 Megs

00:06:26.919 --> 00:06:35.360
on the lower end chips and two full extra course but 3 GHz stock 3.5 GHz max

00:06:32.440 --> 00:06:39.639
turbo am I supposed to be impressed not until we start overclocking it something

00:06:38.160 --> 00:06:44.440
anyone buying themselves in extreme Edition owes it to themselves to do

00:06:42.680 --> 00:06:51.080
overclocked we got our chip running at 4.35 gz effortlessly at which speed we

00:06:48.120 --> 00:06:57.039
were even able to run our ddr4 RAM at 3,000 MHz and we've seen reports around

00:06:53.720 --> 00:06:59.160
the web of 3.6 GHz even without pushing

00:06:57.039 --> 00:07:03.879
these things too hard on liquid cooling so so at that point is it fast well we

00:07:02.160 --> 00:07:09.599
put it up against the consumer grade chip that has passed for highend up

00:07:05.720 --> 00:07:12.000
until now the core i7 4790k to determine

00:07:09.599 --> 00:07:17.440
exactly what's up with this CPU when it comes to gaming performance well until

00:07:14.720 --> 00:07:22.479
directx12 lands with its supposed dramatic improvements to multi-threading

00:07:19.440 --> 00:07:24.560
supporting games I think aor might be a

00:07:22.479 --> 00:07:29.599
bit overkill for normal Gamers and higher per core clock speeds will

00:07:26.919 --> 00:07:34.560
continue to be important but throw ing some of Ida 64's synthetic benchmarks at

00:07:32.039 --> 00:07:38.680
it reveals a different story and back to the real world when we start feeding it

00:07:36.199 --> 00:07:44.520
some truly multithreading optimized workload such as file compression and 3D

00:07:41.199 --> 00:07:47.280
rendering the 5960x reveals itself as

00:07:44.520 --> 00:07:52.560
the true multi-threading Beast that it is in fact once overclocked it's really

00:07:50.280 --> 00:07:58.720
not that far off the $25,000 last gen 12 core xon that we

00:07:56.280 --> 00:08:02.479
just put in edel's machine for editing and 3D

00:08:00.360 --> 00:08:05.479
rendering so that's it for the extreme Edition but don't worry we're going to

00:08:03.840 --> 00:08:10.560
be doing lots more content around Intel's latest truly Enthusiast grade

00:08:08.360 --> 00:08:15.159
platform but we want your feedback on what you want to see from us should we

00:08:12.440 --> 00:08:20.000
take a deep dive into the 5820k performance which aside from 12 F PCI

00:08:18.159 --> 00:08:24.080
Express Lane seems to be the ultimate gamer and multitasker Sweet Spot should

00:08:22.240 --> 00:08:28.120
we look into this new platform from a content creator perspective should we

00:08:26.440 --> 00:08:33.440
quantify the real world difference between DDR3 and ddr4 in as close to an

00:08:30.759 --> 00:08:38.320
Apple stles comparison as we can you let us know what kind of content we should

00:08:35.719 --> 00:08:42.519
make thanks for watching guys and a huge thanks to gkill who sponsored today's

00:08:40.159 --> 00:08:47.519
episode and provided the brand spanking new rip Jaws 4 ddr4 RAM featured in the

00:08:45.680 --> 00:08:51.240
video we've been using gskill RAM in our test benches for a long time now we

00:08:49.320 --> 00:08:55.720
trust their products and we're extremely happy to finally be working with them

00:08:53.600 --> 00:09:00.760
from a sponsorship sort of level the specific kit that we showed off today is

00:08:57.720 --> 00:09:04.120
a 4x4 gig 60 16 gig kit running at 3,000

00:09:00.760 --> 00:09:05.880
MHz 1.35 Vol cl15 but they'll be

00:09:04.120 --> 00:09:12.200
offering a very comprehensive lineup including a 16 kit gig kit that runs at

00:09:08.560 --> 00:09:16.680
3200 MHz a 32 gig kit at 3,000 MHz and a

00:09:12.200 --> 00:09:19.040
64 gig kit at 2800 MHz bananas G skill's

00:09:16.680 --> 00:09:24.240
16 gig 3200 MHz kit actually holds the current ddr4 speed record at 404 MHz

00:09:22.079 --> 00:09:27.040
pretty darn fast for such a new platform anyway guys if you need some ddr4
