Intel Core "Haswell" Quad-Core Desktop CPU Lineup Detailed
2013 promises to be another year, with another new line of processors by Intel, and like every alternate year, the company will introduce a new client desktop CPU socket. With its 4th generation Core "Haswell" processor family, Intel will introduce a brand new CPU architecture that steps up IPC over current Core "Ivy Bridge," hence, Intel's Core desktop processor lineup will not ship with higher clock speeds, yet higher performance. The new chips will be built in the LGA1150 package, and will be accompanied by Intel's 8-series "Lynx Point" chipset.
By Q2-2013, Intel will have launched as many as 14 Core desktop CPU models, including six in the mainline, and eight power-optimized ones. Its nomenclature is somewhat similar to that of current Core "Ivy Bridge" lineup, except the 4000-series numbering. Leading the pack is the Core i7-4770K (unlocked) and i7-4770, clocked at 3.50 GHz with 3.90 GHz Turbo Boost, featuring eight threads with HyperThreading, 8 MB of L3 cache, Intel HD Graphics 4600 iGPU clocked up to 1250 MHz, with 84W TDP; followed by Core i5-4670K (unlocked) and i5-4670 clocked at 3.40 GHz with 3.80 GHz Turbo Boost, and 6 MB L3 cache. The Core i5-4570 and i5-4430 are clocked at 3.20 GHz (3.60 GHz Turbo) and 3.00 GHz (3.20 Turbo).
Intel's mainline Core desktop processor lineup is overshadowed by as many as eight energy-efficient processor models. The Core i7/i5 "S" series reduce TDP to 65W while maintaining clock speeds, while Core i7/i5 "T" series reduce TDP to 45W, with a little help from lower clock speeds.

So those "REAL CORES" don't do squat that HT could not do.
On topic, the question realy is HOW much of an increase over the last gen? as ivy over sandy was nothing to write home about.
Where? I WANT ONE!
Where would you buy a new 2500K for $100.00?
They sell for $220.00 today on Newegg and $210.00 on Amazon, how about >$200.00 on EBay...that's a good represetation of current pricing anywhere in the world.
:cool:
It would be reasonable to expect ~10% increase, it could of been more since clocks stayed the same.
I guess they're still going for $170 - www.microcenter.com/product/388577/Core_i5_3570K_34GHz_LGA_1155_Processor
No 2500K's on their website though...
Anyway, needs more cores. Not really, but it would be nice.
The good news is this is finally a viable upgrade from a 900 series i7. (for the non-enthusiast anyway)
And AMD is competing alright, just not at the high end. ;)
EDIT: I have a feeling I'm not doing the grammar well today.
still not clear why 4770K will be rated 84W while 3770K is 77W.. and i thought haswell would have iGPU named GT1/2/3 (3 being full spec) rather than HD4600... and 4600=GT3?..
those low power models are really tempting for an always-on/crunching setup!
Microcenter i5-2500k for $99.99 (today only 11/16/2012)
My concern with Intel at this point isn’t one of ridiculously high prices. Its more an issue of focus and goals. With little to no competition form AMD and ARM becoming more and more relevant every day, I suspect Intel will focus on efficiency increases more so then performance increases. The shift to mobile computing makes this even more likely IMO.
I personally want to see “significant” performance increases on desktop class processors. If I don’t see that then I’m fine with what I have until such time as said performance increases are made apparent.
Unfortunately this is AMD's fault. Intel can do whatever they want without competition.
if your going to blame someone blame the software and game companies out there that still live in the 90's and refuse to code for 4+ Cores still... yes it's a littler harder to do but damn get with the times it's what NEEDS to be done

Intel Fixes VT-d Bug in Sandy Bridge-E CPUs
ark.intel.com/products/70845/Intel-Core-i7-3970X-Processor-Extreme-Edition-15M-Cache-3_50-GHz
So apparently there are “K” series processors with VT-d support,….
***edit***
Even the Sandy Bridge-E Core i7 3820 has VT-d support and while not an unlocked "K" series part it can still be OCed:
