No need to be rude dude.
You made a claim, which is kind of a big deal, with no backing it up.Then you made few posts more, so its not like you werent reading.
But nice try at implying my lack of life ;-) .If you recall from where it stems ,then link to it, as it stands i read as much as i can into the topic because im very interested in it, only mention of it originated from semiaccurate ,which, as the name implies, isnt accurate.
Second, yes mobos do have usb 3.0 controllers on them.That is a fix, but not a solution as it
a) increases cost
b) increases mobo complexity
c) is not as efficient as a native solution
As for pciex 3.0, yes, at current time, there is not that much to be gained.But same applied to pciex 1.0 or 2.0 in its time.In time there will be use for it.So thats a evasion not a solution.I havent said a thing about DDR4, so dont know what are you talking about.

When i was reffering to node size ,i was talking about chipset and not cpu, however your argument seems really silly, because yes, node change not neccesarilly has great impact right away or needs tuning however it is the only way really.
As for SB vs IB, intel cheap out on thermal interface material, why ? cos they could with no repercussions .And in reality IB is still better than SB.AMD dropped power consumption a lot on the same node, but with FX it was catasrtropic and now its bad , if you really like to make AMD vs Intel comparisons on this topic.
As for the last line of your post.Sad.really.

You were the one being rude and that's why I told you to stop being an Arse.

The chipset node size has nothing to do with performance at all. It can make a minute difference in power consumption but chipsets only use a few watts of power anyways, so it's a moot point for a desktop PC. The reason I mentioned SB vs IB was because the node size did not produce any significant performance gain. Sure it reduced power a bit, but chipsets only use a few watts in power so reducing the chipset node is not going to improve system performance.

Sandy Bridge does have lower power and for a laptop that may be of value. For a desktop PC it makes little difference. The minute performance gain and lower power consumption of Sandy Bridge certainly does not justify the price of SB.

The last line of the above post is quite accurate as you continue to demonstrate by your posts that you simply don't understand the subject matter. Insulting me or other people isn't going to validate your technically incorrect comments.
