BLEH!
No thanks, Intel...

You paid 120 less and I paid exactly 120 lmao.

Mwahaha, i paid 265€ for my prehistoric i7 920, so no thanks, i wait for Skylake. But i suspect similar ridiculous overpricing there as well. And i blame AMD, for not being a real competitor.

my 920 is gona be replaced by the 6700k unless they come out with 6 or 8 core between now and the time i actual upgrade my pc that has base clock of 4ghz

If true then AMD's new 16 core 8+8 will sell like hot cakes. I'm already looking into switching to AMD's new up coming FX chip, if they do improve it by the 40% single core performance they are claiming then i'll jump ship for one of those because Win 10 + DX12 + Gaming will love these new 8cores with HT and better core performance.

where is this info 8+8 core from amd? i cant see to find it here or on ther web, or maybe i not looking hard enough

I'll pass because to me this CPU is priced too close to the E series CPUs. Since my 4790k will last me for a good many years to come. Plus when I decide to upgrade again Ill probably go for a prebuilt E based system like a 6 or and 8 core CPU.
-Tj-
Yeah that Zen looks Very good, might switch to AMD too for my next build. Its been a loooong time though, AMD Duron 😀
Otherwise Intel CannonLake-E 8core in y2018+ by the looks of it..

I totally agree with you. To me the Iris Igpu belongs with the next CPU socket.
Perjantai
Lol at the price 😀
I have no intend to upgrade anyway but this makes sticking with current one so much more easy.
Rich_Guy
Doubt i'll be upgrading for a while 😀
Corrupt^
Don't mention it.
Funny, normally I'd be watching my budget, making the right buy at the right time, but now...
I'm bored, it's like you guys say: Anyone who got a 2500K or 2600K or newer K CPU... it's gonna last for a bit more lol.
Segamon
same here :thumbup:

I know exactly what you mean...:D How true it is...!
Fender178
Also To me the only other reason to purchase this CPU is to test out the Iris Pro graphics and see how they would fair vs an AMD APU.

Honestly, though, I think what happens with the "E"s is fairly positive...note that they are only recent additions to the Vishera line...and I think that's because AMD has been increasing yields to the point where they can bin a sizable number of 125W cpus which will run just as fast--or about as fast--at a TDP of 95W...! That indicates really excellent yields on the process--I would think. Plus, my old cpu, an FX-6300 was not an E but TDP'ed at 95W just the same, and I had little trouble clocking it to ~4.5GHz with stock cooling & voltage settings (auto would max it at 1.45v or so.)
I enjoyed this very brief article on overclocking the 8320e. It was weird--I stumbled on this article after I bought the new stuff--and the guy's using the exact hardware I bought...;)

Sandy did a big jump from Nehalem. Until then all we saw are minor improvements not really relevant for a gamer so with Broadwell looks like nothing will change.
Skylake on the other hand looks kinda promising.

Why so much people drama about the price??? it's just 10$ more than actual i7 unlocked (btw you can see the effect of the psychologic price 🙂 10$ less and no one would have done drama lol)
more seriously, upgrating from actual K to this is a waste of money as we change socket in a few, it will be interesting if you need a new rig right now 😛c1: or if you want to update from a celeron or pentium (hmmm celeron on Z97 :wanker:) to something more "with balls"... but i don't know if they shoudn't wait and buy new socket mobo/cpu combo when in shop.
And about the price it will get down after a few... (as always with intel).

AMD do very good job on low/medium segment and Intel can't compete with it 🙂
but on med/high... lol:banana:
