Sandy Bridge Vs Ivy Bridge Benchmark Deathmatch

Calling all Sandy Bridge owners. Would you care to run benchmarks from speeds ranging from 4.5-4.8ghz so we could directly compare them to Ivy Bridge? Let's come up with a list of benchmarks that anyone can easily aquire and agree on memory speeds and timing.
 
why limit it to where ivy tops out at on water or air? what is the point of that as we all know clock for clock ivy is faster,but I can bench my sandy at 5300-5400 on water all day.
 
a death match is ivy vs sandy no limits on clocks and the highest bench wins.

Why handicap a sandy cpu with limits that dont effect ivys at all?

Ill start with a litte cinbench.this was done with a 2600k

To much variations in HW setups not to mention reviewers have done this already so it's a waste of time - with same boards - same video cards - same SSD. Real apples to apples and already been done.
 
No point unless you do clocks which can be run at load 24 7. For ivy and SB both it is sub 4.8

Do stock vs stock, 4.0 ghz, 4.4ghz, 4.8ghz
 
Ye throw it in there, we had some nice graphs going too 😀

Yeah, no need to thread spam. For those who are interested, these were our results:

And I'm sick of the Sandy/Ivy deal already. We all know the facts: Ivy is 5-10% better per clock, a bit hotter and less tolerant of higher voltages (right?).


You can see the i5 2500K vs i5 3570K in 7zip in this graph 🙂
 
Ivy is mostly 5-10% better but at times it touches or crosses 15% ips as well. Besides not every SB hits 4.5 while ivy does easily if you have the cooling
 
You can never say that every CPU will hit a certain clockspeed since there is no guarantee, but most of the time Sandy Bridge hits at least 4.5.

Ivy does easily? Boy, does that come at a price 😀

Seeing those results, I should get meself a bulldozer!
 
Ivy does hit 4.5ghz pretty easily I've had both the 3570k and 3770k.
1.2-1.25v with mid to high range air cooling is sufficient.

4.6ghz - 4.7ghz needs high end air.
4.7ghz+ definitely needs liquid.
 
might as well bench at the top frequency for both... I can bench my Sandy at 5.2 using 1.44v... never tried higher, this was before I saw that everyone benches with 1.5v. I think an Ivy would have to break 4.9 to be equivalent though.

I don't think Ivy is the greatest for benching on air/water... I got one for a powerful, efficient 24/7 machine with some serious longevity.
