So I'm betting that even with a lot extra GPU power, there is not much of an increase coming from Haswell for games.
It's all about which resolution used when benchmarking. Many sites uses way too low settings when testing CPU's.

2700K vs 3770K with discrete graphics is pretty much a draw in most games at 1920 x 1080, just because it's GPU limited.
So even if 4770K is ~8 % faster at rendering/encoding/whatever/, don't expect it to make much difference for realistic gaming.
