In DiRT 3, the upper segment of processor – including the Core i7-3770K are really close to eachother seen to performance. It is not before we take a look at their Core i5 series, older processors – or for that matter AMD, that we can see any difference worth mentioning. And at higher resolution the difference is even less.

Glad you liked it 🙂

We hope the new translators will have time for more of these.

You used DDR3-1333 for AMD APU when it’s known that those processors need faster RAM to reach top performance, unlike Intel’s which don’t scale up accordingly. As it is, this is a very Intel-biased review.

It seem Intel will beat AMD more with this line of new generation processor. It is faster and consume less power than sandy bridge and trinity. Core per core / clock per clock basis.
I really like to know though the performance and efficiency compare to AMD trinity.

What happens if I put a 125w TDP CPU on a 95w motherboard? If I have a quad-core CPU and disable 2 cores will my CPU fit in the 95w TDP?
