PCMark 7 is a favorite benchmarking program for PC enthusiasts and reviewers alike, because it provides a very easy way to measure performance of different computers. It evaluates a system from seven perspectives (We only included the first six results, since the HDD test is not very relevant to a CPU review), and can be considered a synthetic real life benchmark. As you can see in our graphs above, it was rather surprising to see that the Core i7-3770K -- with a 200MHz advantage, newer architecture, and Hyper Threading enabled -- did not completely blow the previous generation CPUs out of the water.
