4770k Haswell reviewed in China

You said you want a laptop.

Get the a10 ;)

I got one a few weeks ago, Half the price of my Sandy Bridge Macbook Pro and twice the graphic performance on the a10 ;)

Oh, I already know what notebook I'm getting. The 16GB RAM / 768GB SSD 15" Retina MacBook Pro.

I'm just waiting for the Haswell announcement at WWDC on the 10th of June.
 
Correct me if I'm wrong , but after reading the links to test results in this thread it looks to me like the haswell can get the same clocks as the 3770 but at lower volts. maybe I misunderstood some of the info though.

Yes it can, but not by anywhere near what we were led to believe it can.

Basically the voltages being shown are for the VRMs and not the CPU.

But yes, theoretically it will use less power so will have higher overheads for overclocking but from the look of it that's all it will have.
 
We shall see what happens when the real reviews come out. Is this even being released within the confines of the NDA on these parts, or is the NDA going to be different for different markets? I personally wouldn't think so with something globally launched like this but maybe I'm wrong. I personally feel like waiting until the official NDA goes down and all of the mainstream reviews go up to see what these parts are truly made of. Personally I'm more excited to see what kind of performance we can see with a mITX version of the Z87 motherboards, given that these motherboard surfaces appear to be less cluttered than before and can therefore hold more hi-powered components within the same spatial confines as before.
