I have a 1950x, 2970wx and a 3960x. There is a substantial difference in performance i think, its completely subjective. I think the memory access speeds and latency has been greatly improved in the latest generation. The bottleneck apparently has been being able to feed all the cores with the data they need from memory.
A few times when simulating with tyflow i have noticed on the 2970 that its not utilizing all the cores at 100%. I recon this is because the cores are waiting for memory access. This it not happening on the 3960 as far as i have noticed. Its flying _crazy_ fast.
