First Intel Haswell-E Engineering Sample CPU Spotted

[IcePrince1991]

Pretty sure these are lacking intelHD, otherwise that chip is going to be running at temps that make current haswell's look cold. Thank you Intel I can't wait to build a new rig next year when these drop. DDR4 performance gains over DDR3 are already retarded(in a good way), that my next rig might end up being my last rig. lul

I want this now...AND DDR4, AND SATA Express, AND Thunderbolt 2, AND Reversible USB 3.1.

So what? There wasn't an extreme edition for 1156 or 1155. Why were you seemingly anticipating an X-version for 1150? In case you have been in a cave for the last 3-4 years, Intel diverged their mainstream and extreme consumer cpu's starting with 1366 and 1156.

mmm I will buy it if i can oc to 4.5 gh but i doubt it will.
my sandy e ocd to 5.1 easy
my ivy e ocd to 4.7 just
this thing im guessing 4.2 for a max oc but i havent looked into how good hazwell oc im pretty sure they don't do too well in that department..
Core count goes up as well as performance per core but clocks go down!!
Sorta cancelled each other out!!!

INTEL WILL YOU PLEASE stop changing the freaking socket every release?! I'm very tired of wasting money on new boards that all have the same features.

 

[sarinaide]

New architecture, new socket and more money to the cash cow, that added to the myopic view that older tech cannot do what is needed or that there is no suitable alternative means that the Big Blue will be filling the coffers some more and just push the performance up a little bit. Different users will make of this what they want to some it may be feesible but for gamers there is still no likely reason to run through the upgrades other than being up to date.

cant really believe it is just 3GHZ in defeault clock~~
