this video is brought to you by Cooler Master featuring the siden 240 mm

00:00:04.600 --> 00:00:11.960
all-in-one CPU water cooling system check it out at www. coolermaster

00:00:09.759 --> 00:00:16.920
usa.com welcome to my unboxing of Intel's fourth generation core series

00:00:14.160 --> 00:00:22.680
processor code name has well and the reason for that is if you were to ask me

00:00:18.880 --> 00:00:23.760
lonus can I has I would say well you

00:00:22.680 --> 00:00:31.080
better make sure you have a new motherboard because this is an allnew

00:00:25.720 --> 00:00:33.040
chip on an all new socket LGA 11 50 is

00:00:31.080 --> 00:00:39.160
now the socket for this and it's a new chipset so we're using the Z87 chipset

00:00:36.120 --> 00:00:41.520
as opposed to the z77 chipset that was

00:00:39.160 --> 00:00:46.360
the most current one on LGA 1155 so you're still going to have those

00:00:43.879 --> 00:00:52.239
same Enthusiast features overclocking is supported best on K series SKS of course

00:00:49.559 --> 00:00:56.239
you've also got support for uh smart response technology which is using SSD

00:00:54.480 --> 00:01:00.680
caching to accelerate your boot drive as long as everything's plugged into the

00:00:57.480 --> 00:01:03.719
chipset in fact the Z87 supports six

00:01:00.680 --> 00:01:07.400
SATA 3 ports natively as opposed to just

00:01:03.719 --> 00:01:09.840
two on z77 and of course things like uh

00:01:07.400 --> 00:01:14.000
Lucid logic virtue MVP so that you can use the onboard Graphics core on your

00:01:12.000 --> 00:01:18.080
CPU to do things like video transcoding and use the CPU for the things that it's

00:01:16.159 --> 00:01:22.079
best at so it's very similar to the previous generation platform but more

00:01:20.200 --> 00:01:28.000
newer and more better you know more USB 3 more SATA 3 all of that good kind of

00:01:25.000 --> 00:01:30.000
stuff now this is Intel's second

00:01:28.000 --> 00:01:33.920
processor that uses a 22 NM manufacturing process the first was Ivy

00:01:31.880 --> 00:01:38.840
Bridge which was a die shrunk version of sandyb bridge so Intel's Tick Tock

00:01:36.399 --> 00:01:42.439
strategy for releasing CPUs means they will change the architecture then

00:01:40.799 --> 00:01:47.240
they'll shrink it then they'll change the architecture then they'll shrink it

00:01:44.360 --> 00:01:50.640
so this is a new architecture that means that we should see the biggest

00:01:48.479 --> 00:01:54.880
performance improvements usually with an architecture change versus with a

00:01:52.759 --> 00:01:58.200
process shrink however this generation is going to be a little bit weird

00:01:56.079 --> 00:02:02.600
because the last one Ivy Bridge we got a 10% IPC performance Improvement versus

00:02:01.200 --> 00:02:08.080
Sandy bridge in spite of the fact that it was just a die shrink quote unquote

00:02:05.920 --> 00:02:12.879
So based on that we're getting about another 10% with Haswell that might not

00:02:10.560 --> 00:02:15.720
seem like a generational Gap because it's the first time that the

00:02:13.920 --> 00:02:20.920
architecture has changed since Sandy bridge in theory but because it's been

00:02:18.480 --> 00:02:25.480
more of a gradual progression of changes it's still pretty significant so it's

00:02:22.400 --> 00:02:28.120
about a 20% IPC improvement over the two

00:02:25.480 --> 00:02:32.760
generations now ago Sandy Bridge processors so which CP should you care

00:02:30.760 --> 00:02:36.319
about the answer is actually well it depends if you're an Enthusiast and you

00:02:34.760 --> 00:02:40.159
want to overclock you're going to want a K series CPU so the 2K series ones are

00:02:39.239 --> 00:02:49.280
the 4770k and the 4670k so the 4770k is clocked a little

00:02:45.879 --> 00:02:53.440
bit higher 3.5 GHz all the way turboing

00:02:49.280 --> 00:02:58.040
up to 3.9 versus 3.4 turboing to 3.8 for

00:02:53.440 --> 00:03:00.400
the 4670k which is an i5 also the 4770k

00:02:58.040 --> 00:03:05.080
features hyperthreading due to its i7 Heritage however there's more to Haswell

00:03:02.840 --> 00:03:08.680
than just overclockable unlocked processors that perform really well

00:03:06.680 --> 00:03:12.920
these are both quad course and that would be the lower power consumption

00:03:11.040 --> 00:03:17.440
part so Haswell has dramatically improved power consumption due to some

00:03:15.400 --> 00:03:22.360
more advanced SE states that allow the processor to turn itself way down to a

00:03:20.120 --> 00:03:27.200
very low power consumption state but still remain functional and with their

00:03:25.280 --> 00:03:31.680
beefed up onboard Graphics offering up to three times the performance of the

00:03:29.159 --> 00:03:36.000
last generation int HD graphics then these chips will be very interesting

00:03:33.519 --> 00:03:39.959
particularly for entrylevel gamers who aren't going to add a discret graphics

00:03:37.920 --> 00:03:44.200
card to their system but still want to be able to play some Modern games which

00:03:41.959 --> 00:03:47.680
I think is very very cool particularly think about this as well with that lower

00:03:46.000 --> 00:03:51.799
power consumption and that better graphics performance we're looking at a

00:03:49.840 --> 00:03:58.360
whole new world for things like Ultrabooks and

00:03:54.280 --> 00:04:00.840
tablets hasell unboxing shot 3 take

00:03:58.360 --> 00:04:05.000
three we've got that same support for dual Channel DDR3 memory but we're also

00:04:03.120 --> 00:04:08.799
getting some new instruction sets which over time as software becomes optimized

00:04:06.920 --> 00:04:13.120
for them could start to become a real advantage and the way overclocking is

00:04:10.799 --> 00:04:17.639
changed is kind of interesting as well so number one is that it now supports

00:04:15.920 --> 00:04:21.239
base clock straps which means that you can actually change the base clock so

00:04:19.959 --> 00:04:24.800
remember the clock speed of your processor is determined by your

00:04:23.000 --> 00:04:28.000
multiplier and your base clock so you can now change your base clock as

00:04:26.240 --> 00:04:31.840
opposed to just your multiplier using straps on your board so you could go

00:04:30.039 --> 00:04:35.560
okay I want to have um you know a nominal base clock of 125 now and then I

00:04:34.240 --> 00:04:38.919
can make adjustments from there to my multiplier or even tweak it up and down

00:04:37.320 --> 00:04:41.919
a little bit that's cool that wasn't supported on ivybridge because as soon

00:04:40.479 --> 00:04:45.680
as you started to change the base clock more than a little bit it would throw

00:04:43.800 --> 00:04:50.320
other clocks on the motherboard such as your PCI Express clock completely out of

00:04:47.479 --> 00:04:55.400
whack and cause a no post situation so that's neat another thing is they've

00:04:52.160 --> 00:04:59.440
integrated voltage regulation right on

00:04:55.400 --> 00:05:01.720
the CPU so what that means in theory is

00:04:59.440 --> 00:05:08.320
that pretty much all the way from you know an ASUS Channel level Z87 a board

00:05:06.400 --> 00:05:13.919
all the way up to something like uh a Maximus 6 Extreme you're going to have a

00:05:11.240 --> 00:05:17.759
pretty similar overclocking experience until you start to get into very exotic

00:05:16.080 --> 00:05:21.560
cooling methods and very very high voltages which is exciting because it

00:05:20.000 --> 00:05:25.000
means that from an affordability standpoint it's going to be more than

00:05:23.600 --> 00:05:30.000
it's it's about more than just how much the CPU costs which is going to be similar to last gen but you might be

00:05:28.360 --> 00:05:35.160
able to get away with squeezing more performance out of a less expensive

00:05:32.199 --> 00:05:39.319
board which personally I find exciting well thank you for checking out my

00:05:36.600 --> 00:05:43.520
unboxing and first look at Haswell I'm going to probably call this a 4770k and

00:05:41.680 --> 00:05:47.960
4670k unboxing because those are the ones I focus on um don't forget to

00:05:46.160 --> 00:05:50.759
subscribe to L techtips from unboxings reviews and other computer videos and I

00:05:49.560 --> 00:05:55.880
guess I should open the box at some point right why don't we do that here

00:05:52.600 --> 00:05:57.600
you go got a heat sink looks exactly

00:05:55.880 --> 00:06:01.800
like the ivy Bridge one it's got some thermal compound on the bottom for pin

00:05:59.319 --> 00:06:06.599
PW fan you're going to have a manual and a 3-year warranty documentation in yours

00:06:04.600 --> 00:06:09.880
and you're going to have a CPU itself yours won't look quite like this though

00:06:08.080 --> 00:06:15.840
cuz mine says Intel confidential and yours will say 4670k in this case or

00:06:13.000 --> 00:06:18.840
4770k on the top don't forget to subscribe
