Review @ bit-tech.net
Zitat
While on paper, the i7-930 is a mere 133MHz clock bump up from the i7-920, the fact that it's the same price and is slightly faster means that you'd be foolish to buy an i7-920 now (if you literally just bought one without knowing, then, sorry!).

What really sells us on the idea of the i7-930 though is it's improved overclocking potential. While there's no guarantee that every i7-930 will overclock as well as our test sample, it's very pleasing to see how much better it overclocked than any i7-920 we've played with over the 12 months at identical voltages. Any CPU, let alone one with four physical cores, four logical cores and triple-channel memory, that can run at 4.3GHz with a standard air-cooler is great news. Given that the i7-920 itself is a great overclocker, it's really good to see Intel launching an even more overclockable CPU at the same price, and not forcing enthusiasts into buying uber-expensive Extreme Editions.

Scheint wohl ein paar Verbesserungen zu haben, weil der 930er ca. 10W weniger benötigt als der 920er, trotz gleichem Stepping.

naja, laut xtremesystems.org bzw. im hardwareluxxforum ist die aktuelle i7-930 batch mit #3000xxxx bzw. #3001xxxx nicht so der hammer....
