Here's my number one complaint about these new cpus. Every single time they are reviewed for gaming purposes the reviewer tries to disguise the fact that they offer no performance gains for gaming. Look at the resolution of the monitors being used 1024x768...really? So I'm going to drop a shitload of money on this cpu, motherboard, ram, a brand new GPU and I can't afford $150 for a monitor that has full HD resolution? Bullshit. They should be ashamed to write such crap. It's not just Anandtech either, every single review I've seen for the new I7's uses the same technique because they can't quite bring themselves to admit there is ZERO chance of these CPUs offering a better or faster gaming experience. Fuck the Ivy bridge and fuck the bullshit reporters too. End story-they can suck my hairy ass.
