Unfortunately, they all show the opposite of that, i.e. that Ivy's never faster, and Haswell's sometimes a lot faster. Also, that's in a situation with equal clock speeds, which isn't going to happen, as at stock, Devil's Canyon is clocked higher, and when overclocked it OCs higher.

The graphs I showed before never had ivy faster either you're blind or you haven't heard of the margin of error.

More graphs proving my point.

You've shown that Haswell's faster clock-for-clock and thread-for-thread than Ivy, although not necessarily by a large margin in many applications the OP hasn't mentioned. We're suggesting he buys something that is cheaper, clocked higher, more overclockable, and with the same number of threads. We're therefore suggesting something empirically faster and better value, and you're showing graphs that back us up to try and argue against us?
