Intel Core "Haswell" Desktop Processor Box Pricing Compiled
Intel is expected to unveil its 4th generation Core "Haswell" processor family by early-June, along the sidelines of the 2013 Computex event. In addition to being available in 1000-unit tray quantities to OEMs, the desktop variants of these processors will be available in their familiar retail box packages. Multiple sources confirm that pricing of these chips will be largely identical to that of the current Core "Ivy Bridge" series, with succeeding next-generation part for each current generation one. The table below describes their US MSRP (excl. taxes).

It`s me or the msrp is lower than ivy?
Two systems ago, i had a Q9550@4.3 which was SERIOUSLY bottlenecking a 6970,
i moved to a 2700k, and the difference was day and night :D
I do want to upgrade (look it's shiny!), but I can't find a logical reason. :(
For gaming, i5 vs i7. Until now almost no game took advantage of the extra L3 or HT, the situation is slowly changing. It would be awesome to see the difference in modern games when both CPU are at the same clock.
