Intel Core i7-5960X, Core i7-5930K and Core i7-5820K Haswell-E CPUs Specs leaked

If there was competition from AMD, Intel would release an 8 Core K series CPU. Simple as that.

Also, it is not ignorance at all. It is stupid to say that another poster is ignorant just because you have a differing view point. I design consumer electronics. I'm fully aware of how chips are fabricated and Intels binning process.

You say people don't need 8 Cores and that's why it's not in the middle price range? Then why DDR4, people need four times the bandwidth of Haswell 1150? Since when?

As someone who actually owned two X58 systems and currently owns two X79 systems and two 3930K CPU's I can say definitively that X99 does not give me a single reason to upgrade whatsoever. And as an enthusiast, this platforms target market that's a problem for Intel.

Technically the x930k Cpu's are an 8 core processor but in manufacturing Intel locks 2 of the cores off with no way for the public to re-activate them.

But in saying that i was also hoping the 5930k was going to be an 8-core but since it's not im going to stick with my 3930k till Broadwell-E surfaces, which will also allow for the cost of DDR4 to settle.

We've got the Haswell-E pre-order prices already on the main site matey.

You call that a source? This, is a Source!, lol

I hope those prices are highly inflated just because they're for preorder...

I think that the 5820K is THE perfect replacement for my 920
