You're right, of course. My i5 750 has 8MB of cache and it's nowhere near the newer models. I was still a bit surprised, though.

Pretty much every generation of processor from Intel requires a new board, no different really it keeps their chipset production going.

Way I see it, for general pc use people don't need much more than an old CoreDuo processor 🙁 Email, web browsing, etc. And as software becomes 64-bit multithreaded, even the ancient Q6600 will still be relevant. PC sales are dropping because there really isn't anything new to do, games are getting more realistic... but that's about it. Since console games are now being developed for 8 thread, low clocked AMD chips... my 8350 looks beastly in comparison, why upgrade at all?

HW-E only coming with 6 or 8 cores, Intel is axing 4 core version
6 core should be @ price 4820 is currently
8 core should be @ price 4930k is roughly

Still kicking it with an FX-60 and 9800GTX+. Though I am in the process of building the replacement. I was interested in upgrading the haswell to broadwell if the numbers they talking about were real. Now that's not going to happen. Figures. Guess this ITX will last 8-10 years. LoL

You are seriously bottlenecking even the 9800 by using an old Athlon 64 chip. K8? Holy dinosaurs Batman.

The 4 core axing might happen, but 6 cores at the price of 4820 i doubt it, and 8 cores at the price of the 4930k i doubt it. My guess is the only 8 core will be exterme edition aka $1000, there might introduce two 6 cores, the replacement of the 3930/4930 in the same price range of $550, and maybe a 6 core without hyperthreading on the price range of the 4820.

no AMD use 8 real core... usefull for heavy multiple task.
Sadly for them most program and OS use at max less core than those chip have
and Intel have more rough power per core, so despite more core those chip feel less powerfull... roughly like a I5.
good point for AMD they are really really really chip.

in Xeon 2011 8 cores already exist, 10 cores and 12 cores (single chip of course) are for really near future (Q1?)
but i am fine with my twin 6...
more core are important if you need it, right now with 12 core 24 thread i have far too much and technicaly with 4 cores i would have enough.

Doesn't help that there's only 1 instruction scheduler and decoder feeding both cores. Can't wait to see the improvements when each core gets their own instruction scheduler and decoder.
Also, they need to definitely improve their FMACs, you can share them, but they're still pretty weak. I know AMD is hedging their bet to have the iGPU processing float point, but no software use that right now, so AMD needs to beef that up until software do take advantage of the iGPU to process the float point math.
As for cores, 4 cores are serving me quite well, 8 core would be better but not a necessity. I need to do some serious multitasking to even fully use the quad core or running Battlefield 4.

Something like Intel Xeon E5-2687W v2 Ivy Bridge-EP 3.4GHz 25MB L3 Cache LGA 2011 150W 8-Core Server Processor BX80635E52687V2, is what i expect but unlocked for $1k.
One thing that im wondering though, is when will the none E get six cores, seems broadwell will be same as haswell so still 4 cores, so maybe skylake... but i somewhat doubt it.

Hm, 8/6 core CPU's becoming more of a thing for consumers possibly?
Nice, at least those with 4 core + HT CPU's should be able to benefit from games and programs as they become optimized for 8 cores.
Or in any case, as they start to effectively use more then 1-4 threads really.

more like that http://ark.intel.com/products/75281/Intel-Xeon-Processor-E5-2695-v2-30M-Cache-2_40-GHz
or that http://ark.intel.com/products/76160/Intel-Xeon-Processor-E5-2658-v2-25M-Cache-2_40-GHz
since 1366 xeon there is not too much... i just get a 2011 build and from the old 1366 i get none extra and even some step back despite extra Mhz.
kind of technology stall (both AMD and Intel) since few year.
if i am right 6 core would be hard (mean impossible) on not E for now.
(and useless i think).

Just stumbled upon this.. Main news was Broadwell will feature up to 18cores.
http://www.techradar.com/news/computing-components/processors/intel-broadwell-processors-to-max-out-with-18-cores-says-report-1209953
So anyway he said this very interesting thing, you can plug it into existing systems or on a new system, I presume Z97.

Maybe it Z87 will be compatible after all.. Well it better 🤓
