Core i7 4770K Haswell review posted in China
It seems that the Chinese are not really bothered by NDAs opposed to the rest of the globe. A website called Chinadiy posted pretty extensive Core i7-4770K performance results. The 22nm processor is compared towards a Core i7-3770K through a number of benchmarks. Looking at the results they posted, as a desktop user you won't be really happy as the Core i7-4770K performance is nealy identical to its predeccesor. Then again, IGP wise there 's much left open to discuss.
Below a number of results courtesy of Chinadiy. Overall the common denominator seems to be a less then 5% performance increase. We'd strongly advise you guys to base your opinion on the final NDA reviews though and as always with Chinese leaked results, take them with at least a bit of a grain of salt.

Haswell is more interesting on the Ultrabook side of things.
OC potential on the desktop CPUs should be higher than Ivy though, but how high can it be? I'm not talking about extreme overclocking with LN2.

well haswell is rather weak, pathetic i guess for the 2013 the year of next generation consoles.

sandy vs ivy vs haswell, all of these generations have so little differences on performance between them.

that's it, Intel only cares about marketing and money making, AMD's weakness to provide challenge and competition, killed us all.

If it can OC to 5.5GHz I'll be happy.

The engineering this time around, was mainly focused on even less power consumption, and refinement of current perks of going Intel.
Yes for mobile market, there are quite a few improvements and new features though (better SSE, new AVX2, bigger L1,L2, bigger registers, new execution engine, better HT,..). Idk about these earliy leaks, i will take them with a pitch of salt lol, we will see when it hits retail.
My 3770k at 4.6 is apparently benching the same and or better than 4770k at 5ghz
Um no, in 3dmark 2011 physics HW 4770K @4.5Ghz has ~12320 while IB 3770K @ 4.7Ghz ~ 11280.
