Do we know when Haswel E and DDR4 is due out? (I'm not up on these things). I would like to get a 2011 rig. but I wouldn't buy Ivy E until I had a ruff idea when Haswel E is out, just in case there is only gonna be 6-12 months between them.

Same time as IB-E, but next year. Q3 '14.

It won't be much later than that as Intel need a halo DDR-4 product on the market around then, or AMD will likely have the market to themselves for people wanting non-BGA DDR-4 desktop systems.

Desktop mainstream LGA Broadwell (if it ever appears) or Skylake will be H2 '15, so much later.

Edit: Unless you're desperate, I don't see the point of IB-E now. Though if the rumoured 4910K appears soon and is much cheaper than the 4930K, but still clocks well, then I can see that being semi-appealing.

Still makes sense for those on Nehalem platforms (X58). They'll see quite a boost on an IB-E machine.

It also makes sense for someone like me, who invested in a quad core skt2011 CPU and now wants a 6-core.

What about who invested in a hexa core and wants an unlocked octa? :laugh:

Theyd have to settle for another hexa, but with better OC (one hopes...), newer instruction sets, better power savings and slight IPC improvements... I guess...

I imagine Intel might release a cheaper octacore in early 2015, like how they did with i7-970 a while back, for hexas.

If the i7-4930K goes for less than 2200 RON in my country... ($656), Id be tempted to get one (currently, cheapest i7-3930K goes for about $710), if I can scrap the cash before Q1 2014... else, Id rather wait for Socket 2011-3 or Steamroller.

I made mistake when I choose Z77 over 2011. In first moment I thought Z77 is better option but I didn't know all things, what will happen and I didn't think little more in future.
Because I would use PCIe 2.0 graphic until 20-21 Avgust 2013 than PCIe 3.0 and than in September-October I could sell 3930K for 350e and buy 4930K for 500e.
Huge mistake.
Than I would wait Haswell E, not immediately, some time to pass and manufacturer offer more DDR4 models.
But everybody make mistakes...

Meh it would have to do atleast 5,1 GHz to make me switch.

My 3930K does 5,2GHz so I'm set until 2011-3 :toast:

It's not real expectation so high.
I mean 4.6-4.8GHz are real expectation.
Under 4.6GHz is bad.
I would be satisfied with 4.7-4.8GHz and 4500MHz every day.
H100 with 4x Gentle 2100RPM onwould try hard to cool down 4500MHz 6cores.
But that would be rig, not some 4770K.
I can't even turn Internal GPU. I mean that work and I see in device manager but I can't get picture on Intel HD4000, even Post screen I can't see, no signal at all.
But I can turn dedicate and Internal in same time with picture on dedicate.
Because of that and because I see that as mass problem on different hardware I finished with CPU with Internal GPU. I need that only for two week until 780 Classified came and that can't work.
