Intel Core i7 4770K Haswell Benchmarks Surface
One of Intel's upcoming desktop processors based on Haswell will be the flagship consumer processor Core i7-4770K. Tom's Hardware posted numbers and benchmark on this processor and compared it with the Core i7-3770K "Ivy Bridge" and Core i7-2700K "Sandy Bridge." All three processors have been fired off against a series of tests including SiSoft SANDRA, video transcoders and 3DSMax 2012. Benchmarks and more info after the break.
Now as you will notice in some tests the Core i7 4770K offers merely a small performance upgrade over the Core i7 3770K, but in others it's even lower then the 3770.
When you take the rough ballpark then the conclusion is that the Core i7 4770K is only 7 to 13 percent faster than the i7-3770K in multi-threaded workload. Intel's Core "Haswell" line of desktop processors are expected to launch in June, 2013 prior or shortly after Computex.

Intel Confirms TV Plans - 02/14/2013 09:36 AM
Intel says it does have plans to offer its own television service this year, as rumors suggested, but it won’t quite be the a la carte alternative that cord cutters have dreamed about. Inste...
Intel Core i5-3450S and Atom Z670 to go EOL - 11/06/2012 02:01 PM
That's end of life. Intel has this week announced the discontinuance schedule for two more products, the 2.8 GHz Core i5-3450S desktop CPU and the 1.5 GHz Atom Z670 mobile chip as TPU reports today. The i5-3450S will be available for orders until May 24th, 2013 and will ship until November 8th (for the tray version) or until supplies are depleted (boxed).
Intel Core i7-3970X - 11/01/2012 08:24 AM
It seems that Intel's new flagship, the Core i7-3970X Extreme Edition, is already being sold in Singapore for S$1,425 (about US$1,167), including local taxes. This six-core chip is still based on the 32nm Sandy Bridge-E architecture, it has a LGA2011 socket and a 150W TDP, 20W more than the Core i7-3960X.
Intel Core i7-4900 Ivy Bridge-E only in Q3 2013 - 09/14/2012 11:27 AM
Intel isn't really in a rush to release its new high-end processors due to lack of competition, in the fourth quarter of the year we can expect the Core i7-3970K, the final Sandy Bridge-E part, and e...

TDP = 84 vs IB = 77?

Only 7-13% faster than an i7-3770K at stock but what about overclocking potential and temperatures? Assuming the heat spreader issue has been fixed the new i7-4770K could run cooler and use less power at higher clocks than the i7-3770K even though the new CPU's TDP is 7 W more... right?
The i7-3770K looks like a great CPU and one that I would very likely have bought to replace my ageing i7-920 if newer Haswell CPUs weren't coming out in the next few months. I guess it depends on the pricing but it makes more sense to buy a current CPU for a newer chip socket than one for a socket that is about to be phased out. There again, does it really matter when a CPU usually lasts me 3+ years and its replacement usually coincides with either a new PC or a new motherboard?

seems like when it comes to GPU performance the A10-5800K is still stronger
that's too bad because there giving AMD time to catch up in the CPU department while intel is still behind in the GPGPU department...
if all we get is a lousy 7-13% increase then what the hell is there saving grace? there still behind low power efficient processors when it comes to mobile chips like QUALCOMM and Samsung and AMD still beats them in integrated GPUs and when it comes to consumer based chips AMD is catching up little by little and once they do why would the common consumer worry by then when we start to get performance figures like this?
I think intel needs to get there sh@t together!

Haswell was about power efficiency and the iGPU after all. I'm not suprised that it isn't outclassing Ivy Bridge. Any word on whether Haswell will also have that weird heat problem of Ivy Bridge due to the TIM or whatever?
Anand said during his podcast that they fixed it. He wouldn't directly comment on whether it was soldered or not but Intel came to his house to demonstrate some of the new tech, he asked and they said they were aware and that it was fixed.

There saving grace is platform power. By moving the VRs off the mainboard into the processor they can switch states, voltages near instantly. Suddenly you're going to see devices like the surface pro go from 4-5 hours battery life to 8-9. Granted not many of us care about that as gamers, but that's the direction the market is headed so Intel needs to compete there.

you can"t delid a SB cpu. but I did do it to my 3770k
