Haswell-E and X99 Release Dates Confirmed

So excited for the 5820k, 6 core for less than $400 <3. Who else is going X99 this September ?

Coool, I'm hoping to get the 5930K

I might consider it as well but I really wanna see the DDR4 & MoBo prices.

Will DDR4 RAM come out at in the same time frame? How expensive will all these new stuff be? I'm planning a new rig with these brand new parts but will they be that much more expensive?

We are building new rigs soon, and these are the ones we plan to go with the 5820k is the cpu we have our eyes on.

Yes DDR4 will be released in the same time frame and I would guess the price will be dependent on the speed of the ram. Hopefully the cheapest sets will be less than $150.

Maybe worth upgrading my 2500+ have to see

@AutoPilotOn: Definitely worth upgrading from my Phenom II quad platform with DDR2 800mhz.

@Lach0121: lol yea I had a 955 phenom I replaced like 3 years ago when I got my 2500k and I thought that felt like a good upgrade back then.

i'm gonna try to resist buying one but i'm weak willed and probably will get a new cpu if theres any decent improvement over my 4770k. But realistically speaking... most likely i'll end up getting a new gpu before cpu.

bring on the 8 core i7 to replace my i7 930 for editing!! i have a piggy bank with $1000Au in it already....

unless someone is still using old DDR2 MOBO I don't see a reason to upgrade

@PredatorRules: I am, phenom II quad, and DDR2 800mhz. More than enough of a reason to upgrade. Actually its way past time for me to upgrade, so I should see an entire new world of performance.

I wonder how it will do in a core for core(and even better would be MHz for MHz) comparison to my 3570K.
