Anyone going to try Haswell-E

or wait it out for Skylake? 6 cores/12threads looks nice. Was pricing out a build & it is quite expensive.

I'd like to, but I doubt I'll do it this year. If you live near a microcenter, they have significant discounts on these processors.

Intel Core i7-5820k @ microcenter is $299. In store pickup only though.

Same, the price is what is killing me on possibly throwing together a new rig. I've thought of getting a FX 9590/water cooler and buying another mobo for my FX 8350. I got spare ram, hdd, case, psu, etc. Been toying around with an old Sempron I found :biggrin:
