Intel Core i7 "Haswell-E" Processor Lineup Detailed

I call bullshit on all you just typed.

It is possible only by malicious people intentionally wanting to do damage on AMD.

Or by AMD haters only, reserved.


Your response is bullshit. Did you comment on the article linked by xenocide? Have you read it? It looks like AMD priced the A10-7850k too high for what it offers in crossfire situations. And the anniversary Pentium does indeed look to be an unlocked i3, at a great price point. Intel could charge $100 instead of $80 and it would still sell well.
 
Ok but when are these coming out?

Im trying to upgrade my Core 2 Quad already.
 
Am I the only person bothered by the lack of a 4c option? Despite everyone's enthusiasm for more cores, wouldn't it be reasonable to assume that some people are getting the platform for the PCI-E lanes and not necessarily more cores? I guess there will probably be a 4c Xeon option, but still I've been plenty happy with my 3820 and it's ability to overclock (not that I really need to,) and I would imagine a 4c Haswell-E consumer CPU could fly if it existed.
 
Oh, you will have a splendid upgrade with the fastest AMD FX 8350 CPU for just $190.

It is super amazing as benchmarks clearly show:

I will buy it for me, and all my relatives and friends who need a cheap and very fast desktop. :)

Thanks man, but I rather wait until AMD gets back in the game like they did in the AMD 64 days.

Just go for the 4770K or 4790K, and you wont need any upgrade for the next 5 years.

Маn, АМD is certainly in the game, if you go to see the reviews, you will notice how high the performance from the 8-core FX is, especially in those applications optimised for multi-threading, that is certainly future-proof.

People wrongly undervalue AMD but even Google thinks smart, like me: :)

Why is Google tinkering with a brand new microprocessor? “We’re really driven by an aggressive demand. The growth at Google has been very significant,” McKean says. In other words, Google keeps growing, and so the massive collection of servers that runs Google must keep growing too. Yes, the company can keep expanding its operation using Intel chips. But it behooves Google to use other chip suppliers. That’s a way to cut costs, but it’s also a way to ensure that the chips it uses just keep getting better. Companies like Google don’t want to rely solely on Intel. They want competition in the market. They want to play one chip maker off another.

Depends on the final specs. Intel wouldn't have made a 4C cost less, so if the 5820K comes out with HT enabled then no one will wish for less cores. But if it's not enabled there will be some debate whether a 4C/8T chip would have been preferable to a 6C/6T option.
 
Cutting PCIE lanes from a platform built on nothing besides more PCIE lanes is just plain retarded. Turn off HyperThreading on the chip and leave it be on the PCIE lanes -- if not, I can already see the 1-star reviews pop up on sites like Newegg about Intel falsely advertising its platform.
