bit_user Yeah, not what I was expecting. The title should've mentioned Haswell, IMO. Anyway, I still have a Haswell box, with a Refresh i3 in it. I never really used it for the intended purpose, but I have some ideas for it. Temps ran higher than I expected, so I bought a delidding tool last year to see what I could do about that. I had already lapped both the CPU and heatsink, so I was a bit surprised at how warm it still ran. Maybe I'll get around to the delid, this winter. Reply

I know its Haswell … I had an i7-4930k !!!Just learned something … apparently not all 4th gen consumer intel chips were Haswell The i7-4930k and i7-4960X were Ivy Bridge E ! Reply

The name of this thread shows what the title originally was. derekullo said: I know its Haswell … I had an i7-4930k !!!Just learned something … apparently not all 4th gen consumer intel chips were Haswell The i7-4930k and i7-4960X were Ivy Bridge E ! Yeah, because the Xeons were basically a generation behind the consumer CPUs, they did this weird thing where they'd fudge the generation of the HEDT CPUs so that SandyBridge-E were numbered in the same series as the mainstream Ivy Bridge, Ivy Bridge-E were numbered with Haswell mainstream, etc. I think that continued for as long as they kept making HEDT models, which died out after Skylake.
