"Haswell Refresh will likely be supported on current motherboards, perhaps through a BIOS update; when it comes to Broadwell though, the new line may require new Z97/H97 motherboards, despite using the same socket, due to different power specifications."

btw intel ceo/rep said Broadwell will be compatible with existing systems and brand new systems aka z97, so there is that. ;)
