Intel Releases Ivy Bridge Chip Performance Numbers

By Joe Evans

Slowly but surely, performance information of the next generation in Intel processors known as “Ivy Bridge” is being released and we must say it looks promising. With improvements from 25% ro 199% over current Sandy Bridge chips, the new processors will also support DirectX 11 and Open CL 1.1 which will significantly help the graphics side of things. In addition, the 22nm architecture should bring lower power requirements and run cooler which is music to an overclocker’s ears.
