Launch Of Intel Haswell Reportedly Delayed Till June
More Haswell news today. ‘Haswell’ is the name of Intel’s next-generation processors as you guys know by now. Last week we already we reported some of the key details of Intel’s Haswell and Broadwell platforms, but perhaps the most enthralling part of the report was that it was scheduled to launch in April 2013. A new documents located by VR-Zone, shows that Intel is planning to delay the launch of its Haswell processors from April 2013 to May and June 2013.
It will likely reveal them at Computex 2013.
The slide also mentions the sales of the processors to end-user will not commence until after 2nd June. The leaked slides lists the debut of five Core i7 series desktop processors and eight Core i5 series desktop processors. Haswell will also bring new motherboards in the market including Intel Z87, H87, Q87, Q85 and B85 for the desktop segment.
Haswell mobile will bring Intel QM87, HM87 and HM86 motherboards and seven Core i7 series processors, including 4 new models listed below:
- Core i7-4702MQ
- Core i7-4702HQ
- Core i7-4700MQ
- Core i7-4700HQ
Initially only Core i7 series will be launched for notebooks. Intel Haswell desktop will debut along with the Haswell mobile line-up, the entire line-up of Haswell and Broadwell can be seen here.

As I've said numerous times in regards to AMD.... Designing a processor around a socket, severely limits development. Designing a socket around a processor however, allows the engineers to do their job and create more advanced processors.
AMD is limited to what the AM3/AM3+ sockets can support....which means they're limited in the "advancements" they can make with each processor release. This is part of the reason they can't catch up to Intel. They're too busy trying to design processors around the socket instead of developing a socket around a processor.
AMD simply doesn't have the money to do everything from scratch. A large part of the bulldozer CPU was supposedly done with help of computers which lead to an inefficient architecture.
Intel however does and is I think deliberately changing sockets even though it might not be needed to make even more money through motherboards.

New security features are being added to Haswell along with other drastic changes. Broadwell will use the same socket as Haswell and will supposedly gain DDR4 support.....
You can't keep adding support for new features and hardware....without changing the socket. Intel isn't changing sockets just for the sake of changing sockets. You're gaining something in return.

lol, same, my rebuild is scheduled for 2017 since I already built this rig this year. I have a 5 year build cycle (that or something changes that I haven't foreseen that I need an actual upgrade before the 2017 date).

I think I'll wait on the 2011 replacement this time around maybe haswell-e or whatever it will be called.
