Over at the Asian edition of Intel's IDF a photo was taken of a Haswell processor with the heatspreader removed. This is the GT3e version of the CPU, a quad-core model with on-board RAM. Thus far Intel has talked about three different Haswell integrated products tagged as GT1, GT2 and GT3. However, a photo was spotted of a 4th model, this is the GT3e with dedicated GPU memory tagged as Crystalwell GT3 eDRAM. The product shown is based on a Lynx Point chipset with the quad-core Haswell chip. 



Soldered on BGA-only variants that will reside in "Performance" 55W quad-core notebooks (as an alternative to sub-20W discrete options from AMD and Nvidia that is usually paired with a 35/45W CPU) and the desktop AiOs. The other animals in the farm will get the less exciting GT2 (16/20 EUs) or GT3 (40 EUs). Word is that the integrated GPU will be able to compete with NVIDIA's 650M-gpu.
