The CPUs will be compatible with the Socket LGA 2011 and X79 chipset platform and while the clock speeds and TDP aren't known, the TDP is expected to be around the current Sandy Bridge-E level. One can only hope that the inferior heatspreader that current Ivy Bridge CPUs are saddled with causing them to run hotter and significantly reducing overclocking ability will be replaced for the extreme enthusiast grade IB-E CPUs by the superior soldered one found on the earlier Sandy Bridge CPUs. It would be a slap in the face to customers paying so much money for a premium product otherwise.
This is why I bought a x79 for the quad channel memory and PCIe 3.0 and compatible with ivy e and sandy e future chips........Ill grab one when my DAW takes CPU to 100 percent and pops... I dont see that happening for years.. In like 2 years I can buy a 8 core Ivy E easy, they will still be selling them at that time. I will get a 8 core 16 thread model.... Thank you......hehhe giddy!!!!!!!!!
