Yes, XB1's presale numbers are abysmal and to add an interesting note to the AMD v. Intel debate...it looks like Intel is "slipping". Instead of Broadwell next year, they are doing a haswell "refresh".

Imagine Steamroller launching and having to compete with hasfail for a full 18 months, by which time, if broadwell does finally poke it's head out of obscurity, the Excavator will likely be hitting the shelves.
Interesting...eh?

I like how you always say hasfail as you know its amazing. Haswell is revolutionary, my brother was right biggest improvement since 2003 when pentium m cpus were released on the mobile market. My brother said my ivy bridge laptop will look 10 years old when haswell would come out and he was right lol. I wish I had waited for haswell now and the igpu has improved significantly so much so amd apus get crushed compared to intels higher end hd 5000 series igpu. I remember reading 32nm pch compared to the 65nm pch motherboard that was out for years and not only that haswell takes a lot less power on idle as well as the igpu is 2x better performanvc per watt then ivy bridge as the intel demonstration showed.
Haswell is the biggest improvement seen in years in mobile market, you could say haswell is a game changer and amd must be scared now there apus are pointless. Intel are in a position where in 2016 if haswell succesor came out intel would still be ahead of amd as they are ahead on performance per watt they can release a lot more cores cpu.
In many benchmarks the 3770K can still beat the 4770K go figure, to make matters better the first retail chips we got, the very first tested part was stable at 4.3ghz maximum, but sadly the motherboard and chip didn't get to do very much, the chip killed itself with thermals and took the motherboard with it. As for Intel HD, HD4600 may seem close on FPS but if I ran HD4600 vs my 7660D with the same RAM, the Intel system is nothing less than a stutter fest in basically everything but F1 2012
