Haswell-E in September? Ah, I thought we're gonna see it a little sooner 🤓

I'm interested in the improved TIM bit. Let's see if Intel delivers.

That's what i am most interested in as well.If they do a good job and temps are far lower than current Haswell chips,
this will lead to more overclocking headroom,within reasonable voltage of course.
If the above statement turns out true and i already had a Haswell based pc, i would be pretty upset with Intel as will most owners that love overclocking.
(Just a thought) Intel had already released Ivy bridge which had very bad thermals due to the tim used in the cpu's.
I don't understand why the original Haswell chips did not improve in that area and they had to release the refresh for the tim improvement.

Well it depends, atm TIM is not that bad for normal usage.. Or I guess I just got a little lucky with voltages
@ 4.7GHz I never see it above 65C during heavy gaming,
@4.6ghz never above 60C,
@ 4.5ghz never above 55C.
Usually by all ~ 40-50C on avg.
2 extreme gaming scenarios @ 4.6Ghz, LP2 is the hottest with jobthread=8.

BLEH!
I guess they must be having issues with 14 nm, IIRC Broadwell shoulda been out by now.
Me too, I was hoping June/July.
We can hope. A return to solder would be really helpful like SB, but I don't think the onboard VRMs help the heat situation anything, particularly.
Won the silicon lottery? :P

What the hell Intel! I just sold my Z87 mobo, memory and CPU bcse it was announced that Haswell-E will be launched in June/July 2014. Now its September? thats too far for me to wait and survive on my laptop...

Noobs. This is why you don't believe rumors about release dates lol.

I guess that the chance of getting VT-d in the K models is close to none.

Are you sure that Haswell-E is going to be "delayed" until September? This is the only place I've seen report that.
PhazeDelta1
There was never any official confirmation of a release date to being with. So technically nothing has been "delayed". But wccf and Toms are both reporting 2nd half of 2014 for a release.

I must've read it as second quarter. I sure hope it's close to the beginning of the second half. I've been waiting so long now, I'm almost ready to just pull the trigger on a 4770k/4790k.
PhazeDelta1
TBH, you've waited this long. It wont kill you to wait just a little longer. 😀

This mechanical hard drive kills me a little bit inside, every day. 🤓

Man if Intel Does deliver with the TIM in the Refresh Haswell K based processors then I might be interesting in getting the 4790k rather than the 4770k if the pricing stays the same.
