which 2011 processor is better? the intel i7 4960x or the intel i7 3970x? They are different because one is sandy bridge while the other is ivy bridge

In a variety of benchmarks, they trade back in forth in performance. For complex tasks such as video encoding, however, the 4960x excels. For a generic compilation of tests, here is a link that shows that they are close with the 4960x coming out on top: http://www.cpubenchmark.net/overclocked_cpus.html

The 3960X is better..but between the 3970x nd the 4960X...The 3970X is better

Hey! I personally have had better luck with the Hyper X. It is actually optimized for Intel gen 3 processors (Ivy Bridge) vs the Corair's Gen 2 (makes a big difference as Intel may release a Gen 4 soon). The latency on the Hyperx is better as well, 9-9-9-24 vs 10-10-10-24 (you have to read the details at the bottom on the Corair page, they are different than the top.) It will automatically hyper thread as needed which can save power in laptops. AND it is also CHEAPER :-)

Not sure if you found the answer to your question but in the Yoga 11s it is the 3rd gen Intel processor (Ivy Bridge).

Yes and no, the gigabyte brix ultra supports both an i5 and i7. The i5 is two cores with two threads each, and the i7 is four cores with two threads each. If you are buying an i5 configuration, then you stated (and research) is correct.

hi alex , the CPU it's Ivy Bridge , and the socket it's LGA 1155 , hope that was helpful

I have an i7 3770 and was going great with this motherboard. It has everything to be considered an excellent motherboard. The only thing it does not have wifi, but nothing, I solved buying an adapter.

This is the X79 chipset. It is the enthusiast variant of the consumer LGA1155 chips, colloquially known as Sandy Bridge(32nm)/Ivy Bridge(22nmTG). It features the LGA2011 socket, and seats CPUs with designations in the 38XX/39XX and 48XX/49XX model values. 4C/8T and 6C/12T CPUs available.

Its an APU, meaning the CPU and GPU are both on the same chip, these are much faster than regular onboard graphics, while they do share system ram they are still a big boost over the intel 4xxx

This is an Ivy Bridge processor. It fits in the same LGA 1155 socket as the Sandy Bridge CPUs. The Sandy Bridge CPUs are all the 2000-series.For the upper-end Sandy Bridge CPUs, look for a 2500, 2500K, or 2550K for i5 processors, and 2600, 2700, and 2700K for i7 processors. The "K" suffix means the CPU is unlocked and is suitable for overclocking.

Yes it is built using the ivy bridge, and you can upgrade to 8GB of ram total.

I have this quad core processor. Mine says the same. The 45Nm is the technology used to produce the microchip architecture. (All the super tiny circuits on the chip.) 12MB Cache is a better processor memory. I have very good luck with mine. It plays all the FPS games I have and some MMO games like MechWarrior online smoothly.

Mark probably knows better than me but I would have sworn the I7-3770 (if that's the one you're looking at) is a 3rd gen processor. But, I've been wrong before.

yes it's; according to this linkhttp://www.overclock.net/products/intel-core-i7-4930k-ivy-bridge-e-hexa-core-processor-3-4-ghz-12mb-cache-lga-2011-no-fan-retail-bx80633i74930k

On your i7 what speed is it and same on i5. They made some very slow cpu's. You might have a i5. That's faster than i7. Never know.

LGA 1155 only (Sandy & Ivy Bridge CPUs). I have 2 of these motherboards. One in a Hackintosh w/ an i7-3770 the other has an i3-3225 serving as a home theater PC. Both are working out very well.

No. Here is a side by side comparison: http://cpuboss.com/cpus/Intel-Core-i7-3770K-vs-Intel-Core-i5-3350P

I checked ASUS official website, it shows N53SV should have HM65 Express Chipset instead of HM55, http://www.asus.com/product.aspx?P_ID=Gjsm3Kp4pjz9iJM1plus Intel's website shows a HM55 is not even compatible with a Sandy Bridge processorhttp://ark.intel.com/chipset.aspx?familyID=43181How could this happen?
