The \u201cTick\u201d phase of Intel\u2019s usual \u201cTick Tock\u201d product release, Broadwell processors are Intel\u2019s first 65W 14nm die shrink of the Haswell architecture. Unlike previous Tick releases though, Broadwell does not completely replace its preceding architecture, but instead supplements it with two processors that are compatible with the current socket and chipset \u2013 the Core i7-5775C and i5-5675C.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What They Do Well<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>With stock core clock speeds of 3.3 GHz and 3.1GHz (3.7 and 3.6 Turbo), you may be a little underwhelmed with these new processors at first glance, especially when compared to the 4.0\/4.4Ghz speeds of the i7-4790k. But fear not. In addition to the 5% Ghz for Ghz performance increase resulting from Inter Process Communication (IPC) improvements, Broadwell processors do two things extremely well: overclock and on-board graphics.<\/p>\n<p>First, the overclocking. Despite the lack of the k moniker, the i7-5775 and i5-5675C are fully unlocked and ready for some extreme overclocking upwards of 25% or more. We\u2019re still testing ourselves but do plan on releasing the results of our overclocking test here on this blog another day, so stay tuned for that.<\/p>\n<p>Next, the on-board graphics. Along with being Intel\u2019s first 14nm processor, the Broadwell CPUs are the first to use Intel\u2019s new Iris Pro 6200 on board graphics, which look to be an absolute monster. Our own benchmarks aren\u2019t quite ready for sharing just yet, but check out what Tom\u2019s Hardware has found in their tests. I mean, wow. That\u2019s enough juice to compete with any entry level discrete card and many of the mid-level options.<\/p>\n<figure style=\"width: 634px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/media.bestofmicro.com\/S\/N\/497399\/original\/14-IGP-Bioshock-Infinite.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"634\" height=\"1057\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Image Courtesy Tom&#8217;s Hardware https:\/\/www.tomshardware.com\/reviews\/intel-core-i7-5775c-i5-5675c-broadwell,4169-6.html<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><strong>So What About Skylake?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The \u201cTock\u201d release of Intel\u2019s new architecture, also known as Skylake, is set for later this year and promises another round of significant performance improvements. So the question becomes \u2013 upgrade to Broadwell now or sit tight and wait for Skylake? That really depends on your usage case and budget. If you\u2019re looking for something on the high end to handle a heavy workstation load or extreme gaming with multiple graphics cards, you\u2019re still better off with a 2011 socket Haswell-E with its 6+ cores and 40 PCI lanes rather than Skylake anyway. And if a basic home PC with enough integrated graphics to run basic games is what you\u2019re after, all signs point to Broadwell providing enough of a horsepower upgrade to warrant pulling the trigger now.<\/p>\n<p>The Intel Core i7-5775C and i5-5675C are now available on our <a href=\"\/raptor-z55-gaming-pc.php\">Raptor Z55<\/a> as well as <a href=\"\/raptor-z40-desktop-pc.php\">Raptor Z40<\/a>, <a href=\"\/vector-z35-desktop-pc.php\">Vector Z35<\/a>, and <a href=\"\/vector-z25-desktop-pc.php\">Vector Z25<\/a>.
