The 4.1 GHz base clock on the 7600X3D is notably low, particularly when compared to the 4.7 GHz base clock on the 7600X and 4.4 GHz on the 7800X3D. At $300 USD, the 7600X3D offers very poor value for money. In today’s market there are several cheaper and faster alternatives available including the 12600KF at $135 USD.[Oct '24CPUPro]
The Intel i7-4771 is the same as the i7-4770 apart from a 100 MHz increase in base clock from 3.4 GHz to 3.5 GHz. In theory this increase will only impact multi-core workloads because both processors have the same turbo clock of 3.9 GHz which should be engaged during single and dual core workloads. On multi-core workloads the turbo needs to be disabled in order to maintain acceptable core temperatures and operating frequencies drop to base clock where the i7-4771 has a marginal 100 MHz or 2.9% advantage. In other words the two processors should be largely identical. Looking at the i7-4770 vs the i7-4771 benchmarks verifies this. Both the 4770 and 4771 are the current top end mainstream market leaders but for the vast majority of desktop users they are probably overkill as typical consumer use rarely requires more than two cores.
