Details of Intel's upcoming Ivy Bridge-E based Core i7 HEDT lineup. Expected to hit the market in Q3 2013, the lineup may look quite similar to the current Sandy Bridge-E lineup. This means a quad-core part in the $300-$400 range, a six-core unlocked model in the $500-$600 range, and an Extreme Edition six-core version around the $1000 mark.

All three versions will use the LGA2011 socket and will be compatible with current X79 motherboards (after a BIOS update). DDR3-1866 is expected to be the standard memory frequency for these processors. Check out the chart.

Are you upgrading? and if, are you on some kind of upgrade program so it's less expensive. I'm interested in stepping up but only if it's 70% cost to upgrade at most.

If there is a great improvement yeah I'll upgrade

I don't know any program you spoke of o.0 I spend all my money on pcs and nothing else, it stills way cheaper than a car

I just got my 3930k and sabertooth x79 right where it's running perfect. I will probably skip IB-E. That's not to say one wont pass through and I get to test it out. :nerd:
