Q about Ivy 3770k running at stock speed

Hello, with the recent news about Ivy 3770K running hotter when overclocked, I was wondering if the same applies when running at stock speed (no overclocking) ?

The reason I dont want a locked cpu is because I dont need VT-d or VT-x.

Its been a few years since I've last built my own rig.

I understand, from what Ive read that this is due to thermal paste being used instead of solders.

I'll be using the the CPU for audio work mainly.

Also, since I haven't seen any news about it, does anyone know when the next wave of quad-core Ivy Bridge chips will be released (or any other details about it)?


Thanks.

At stock speeds Ivy is colder than Sandy. uses 20% less power too. Not to mention those ~5% faster at the same clock.

And all CPUs got VT-X.

The heat people talk about is basicly for overclocking beyond 4.5Ghz. And its due to thermal density.

No more quards coming as said above. Next wave is dualcores.

Thanks for the replies, T_Yamamoto and ShintaiDK.

So the next round of quad cores will be Haswell I guess.
