00:00:07,240 --> 00:00:14,639
welcome to a belated unboxing this is the Intel Sandy Bridge did I say Sandy

2
00:00:12,320 --> 00:00:18,960
Bridge cuz what I meant to say was Ivy Bridge lineup so I don't have the whole

3
00:00:16,960 --> 00:00:23,840
lineup here today but let's go over the general information about all of them

4
00:00:20,840 --> 00:00:26,400
first so at launch these are all 77 watt

5
00:00:23,840 --> 00:00:32,320
tdb processors what that means is that they actually produce less heat in terms

6
00:00:29,640 --> 00:00:37,280
of their spec at stock speeds than the last generation Sandy Bridge processors

7
00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:41,559
which were all 95 wat TDP processors what is also cool about these guys is

8
00:00:39,480 --> 00:00:47,239
the fact that they are all using Intel's new 22 nanometer manufacturing process

9
00:00:44,879 --> 00:00:52,239
that means more transistors in less space which basically means two things

10
00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:55,559
either cost savings for Intel which isn't of much concern to Consumers what

11
00:00:54,039 --> 00:01:00,280
do we care what Intel saves their cost on um but number two but wait there's

12
00:00:57,680 --> 00:01:05,560
more is in on the flip side of cost savings is that they can also not save

13
00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:10,119
the cost but Jam in more performance so this is a small upgrade to the

14
00:01:08,520 --> 00:01:14,479
architecture so they haven't jammed in too much more CPU performance although

15
00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:19,759
they've jammed in a heck of a lot more integrated graphics performance um where

16
00:01:18,119 --> 00:01:23,880
was I going with that but they have put in a little bit more performance and

17
00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:28,759
they're not charging any more for it and they do run cooler and yeah pretty much

18
00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:34,159
it's Ivy Bridge so let's go over the general lineup before we unbox one so

19
00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:37,479
these are apparently in some kind of an order ah they are in order okay but I

20
00:01:35,479 --> 00:01:42,680
would put them like this way to go slick okay and let's start over here so this

21
00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:45,119
is an i5 that means it is still quad

22
00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:49,000
core okay so back in the uh back in the Linfield days I5 pretty much meant dual

23
00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:52,960
core if I recall correctly no it didn't I'm wrong never mind I nbed out there

24
00:01:51,439 --> 00:01:56,840
okay so this is the I5 which means it does not have hyperthreading so it is

25
00:01:54,640 --> 00:02:03,000
four cores and four cores only it's a 3450 so the 34 indicates like lower

26
00:01:59,880 --> 00:02:05,719
General frequency performance and the 50

27
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:10,200
means that it has Intel HD graphics 2500 from my testing HD graphics 2500 are

28
00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:15,239
approximately equivalent to the last generation Sandy Bridge HD 3000 so that

29
00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:19,120
is the higher end Graphics from the last generation is now equivalent to the

30
00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:23,360
lower end Graphics okay we have turbo boost technology 2.0 which basically

31
00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:26,360
means that if you're using fewer threads that is your running a game that's only

32
00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:29,360
single or dual threaded and you got four cores in here it will go ahead and ramp

33
00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:35,480
up the frequency as long as you're Cooling and uh and your power

34
00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:39,200
limitations think it's basically it's okay it'll do it um supports dual

35
00:02:37,319 --> 00:02:43,000
Channel DDR3 memory threeyear warranty integrated memory controller and smart

36
00:02:40,640 --> 00:02:46,840
cash technology okay most of those are not that relevant Beyond just it goes

37
00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:53,599
like really fast that's what all of that means okay next we've got the I5 3570k

38
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:55,680
so a 35 means it's like better than a 34

39
00:02:53,599 --> 00:02:59,920
and then an i5 means it like also doesn't have hyperthreading and the K

40
00:02:57,920 --> 00:03:04,879
that's where oh no hold on the 70 means it has HD 4000 Graphics which are

41
00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:11,680
significantly faster than 32500 Graphics but still not as fast as

42
00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:13,640
AMD's Apu so something like a 3870k when

43
00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:18,720
it comes to direct X11 games although it is direct X11 ready and there is a

44
00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:24,120
benefit right right benefit okay so hd4000 Graphics the benefit it has over

45
00:03:21,159 --> 00:03:28,680
2500 and basically anything else is that it just destroys every other method of

46
00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:33,000
quickly transcoding videos so if you want to take like a folder full of

47
00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:37,080
videos that you ripped off of your DVD that you bought of some show that you

48
00:03:34,879 --> 00:03:42,280
like like you know gry's Anatomy for example um what you do is you just ceue

49
00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:47,959
up all don't give me that look you ceue up all the videos to to uh convert them

50
00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:51,280
to a format that is more acceptable for your given device so for example if you

51
00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:55,560
have an iPhone all you do is you use arsoft media converter 7 you say output

52
00:03:53,799 --> 00:04:01,079
to iPhone and then you give it a folder to Output to and you click go and then

53
00:03:57,480 --> 00:04:03,599
you tell it to use Intel's

54
00:04:01,079 --> 00:04:08,120
smart response technology no that's the U sorry that's the other one the ssds

55
00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:12,239
quicksync use Intel quicksync and what it does is it does it in like half of

56
00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:18,320
the time of any other solution so using all four dedicated CPU cores is still

57
00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:21,600
slower than using that integrated

58
00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:24,240
Graphics okay so AMD's Apu does not do

59
00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:29,280
that but it uh it does sort of Beat It in direct X11 gaming but uh this to me

60
00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:34,800
anyway is sort of more useful because I don't really use onboard Graphics anywh

61
00:04:31,639 --> 00:04:36,600
who right so this is uh oh everything's

62
00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:41,039
all out of order now this was over here right we were over here okay so the K ah

63
00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:45,800
the K means it's unlocked unlocked and Unleashed that means you basically

64
00:04:42,479 --> 00:04:47,160
overclock it as much as you want most IV

65
00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:54,080
Bridge processors from their stock frequencies of around 3. and change are

66
00:04:49,759 --> 00:04:55,560
good up to in excess of 4.5 gigz however

67
00:04:54,080 --> 00:05:00,240
when you overclock an IV Bridge processor what you will notice is that

68
00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:04,160
it gets pretty hot so you're going to want a pretty beefy cooler to go with

69
00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:08,680
your Ivy Bridge processor let's go ahead and move along so this is an i7 3770

70
00:05:06,919 --> 00:05:12,919
which means it has beefy Graphics it's like more better than this one cuz it's

71
00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:16,520
37 instead of 35 and it is an i7 that means it has hyperthreading so that

72
00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:21,680
means it has four physical cores and eight virtual overall cores including

73
00:05:19,919 --> 00:05:26,000
four virtual cores so four physical four virtual for eight total threads on this

74
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:29,080
particular processor this is not a k which means you basically can't

75
00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:32,720
overclock it which means I mean in my personal opinion as an overclocker

76
00:05:30,840 --> 00:05:37,520
pretty much don't waste your money spend an extra couple bucks and go with this

77
00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:39,919
guy so this is the king of the castle

78
00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:43,160
when it comes to Ivy Bridge it's an i7 hyperthreading it's a 37 which means

79
00:05:41,840 --> 00:05:47,919
like more of the better rest than everything else it is a 70 which means

80
00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:52,919
you have fast video encoding and it is a k which means you can overclock it quite

81
00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:57,680
easily to an excess of 4.6 gigz which is what I'm running on my test bench it

82
00:05:55,960 --> 00:06:02,840
also has oh look at that has eight Megs of cash cool I didn't even realize the

83
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:05,759
i5s only have six Megs of cash you learn something every day don't you look at

84
00:06:03,919 --> 00:06:13,599
that see it says right on the box eight Megs of cash six Megs of cash

85
00:06:10,840 --> 00:06:19,400
cool so why don't we do for our unboxing the 3770k since that is the hot skew

86
00:06:17,199 --> 00:06:23,240
that everyone in their dog is like super interested in hopefully it doesn't come

87
00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:27,599
with a plaster of Paris heat sink in the box and no CPU at all wink wink if you

88
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:32,479
guys know what I'm uh what I'm referring to I'm sure it won't because this one

89
00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:39,880
came from NCIX where most of the CPUs that they sell are real CPUs and not

90
00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:41,880
made of yeah plaster okay inside we find

91
00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:48,639
a CPU this has 1,155 pads on the back which correspond

92
00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:50,880
to 1,155 pins in your z77 z68 or even

93
00:06:48,639 --> 00:06:55,280
p67 motherboard assuming your motherboard manufacturer goes ahead and

94
00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:59,400
updates the BIOS for you it comes with a sticker o it's

95
00:06:57,160 --> 00:07:02,879
shiny as well as a three-year Limited warranty in logo and installation

96
00:07:01,280 --> 00:07:06,680
instructions guide book which we're not going to open it's basically pretty dry

97
00:07:05,199 --> 00:07:10,039
and it comes with a stock cooler which I would pretty much recommend that you

98
00:07:08,599 --> 00:07:13,160
hold on do we have a garbage can that I can like totally go for like an epic

99
00:07:11,759 --> 00:07:17,280
jump shot into uh okay whatever especially if

100
00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:25,280
you're overclocking I would definitely recommend something more along these

101
00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:28,599
lines or like these lines wo there's

102
00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:31,240
like bolts and stuff okay these lines so

103
00:07:28,599 --> 00:07:36,560
this is Intel's cooler which is pretty beastly and pretty

104
00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:39,240
cool and yeah because Ivy Bridge does

105
00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:42,400
get pretty toasty and does does draw more power once you've overclocked it so

106
00:07:40,919 --> 00:07:47,080
I think that pretty much wraps it up thank you for checking out my Ivy Bridge unboxing however late it may have been

107
