Soo, ENDLICH: NDA zu Intels neuen CPUs (SandyBride) gefallen, Tests draußen!
Fazit:
Hammerteile! Einfachst auf 4,5-knapp 5GHz übertaktbar, super Performance. Ich persönlich suche nur noch nach einer Quelle für den 2500K.

The Core i7-2600K is tempting at $317 but the Core i5-2500K is absolutely a steal at $216. You're getting nearly $999 worth of performance at roughly a quarter of the cost.
If you typically spend around $200 on a new CPU then Sandy Bridge is likely a better overclocker than anything you've ever owned before it

The Sandy Bridge lineup gives us some of the easiest conclusions to write that we've ever come across: the new range of Intel CPUs renders almost every other processor redundant and pointless. Only if you need incredible performance in multi-threaded applications should you look beyond the Core i5-2500K for your next CPU.
