6 core broadwell?

[surya13]

can i expect i7 5770 (any broadwell i7) to have 6 cores?
if you see, i7 3770 (ivy bridge) and i7 3820 (sandy bridge-e) have 4 cores.
also i7 4770 (haswell) and i7 4820K (ivy bridge-e) have 4 cores.
i7 5820K (haswell-e) has 6 cores.
keeping these in mind, can i expect a broadwell i7 to have 6 cores?
also if this is true, can i expect broadwell i5 to have 4 cores and 8 threads and broadwell i3 to have 4 cores and 4 threads?

i doubt this .
intel has 6 and 8 cores for their high end 2011-3 socket .
releasing 6 core with 12 threads for more affordable price in mainstream
would cannibalise on their sales in high end .
they don´t need to do so because overclocked AMD FX 8 core chips can
barely keep up with i5 processors
let alone unlocked i7 4790K ...

but the 5820K is available for $385.33 and 4790K costs $334.99.
the difference isn't much.

true ,
but only until you look at ddr4 memory and x99 motherboards pricing .
you need to take into consideration the cost of the entire platform not only cpu alone.

i've got some rumors about broadwell chips

they suggest broadwell i5's and i7's will be quad core chips
