Core i7-3960X review

I found an early review for Intel´s new flagship Core i7-3960X in a Chinese site. Although it´s written most of us can´t understand, fortunately there´s automatic translation! Thanks, Google!

 
The last part of review states:
 From the consumers point of view, Sandy Bridge-E architecture processor apparently is only suitable for high-end enthusiast, after all, the price is not cheap, with the X79 motherboard being expensive, too, so it certainly is not suitable for an ordinary user; of course it has better overclocking performance, so for those who like to play games and look for a very liquid cooling overclocking friendly processor, it is a very attractive option. Most users look at the performance it can achieve, can not afford it and, thankfully, does not need to feel sorry for, after all, ordinary Sandy Bridge processor architecture has been good enough  for most people's needs, and especially for those concerned about games, a Core i5 and even Core i3 enough.
