Intel DZ77GA-70K and Core i7-3770K Review

AIDA64

Considering that the i7-3770K has hyper-threading enabled, and our test on the P8-Z77V Pro used the non-HT i5-2500K, the results in AIDA aren't exactly mind-blowing. The CPU benchmarks don't seem to make full use of the faster HT-ness at stock. However when we compare the HD7970 result, which don't forget is 1GHz slower than the overclock on our i5-2500K, things seem to give more cause for hope. Of course this is only one result, but we expected a little more.

The Memory benchmarks are much better. Of course the 1600MHz that the DZ77GA-70K defaulted to don't really light up the graphs, but the 2133MHz variant with the HD7970 at least is starting to be in the right ballpark.
