Broadwell-E 10 Core Costs $1723

Wow.
 
Performance per dollar D:

A lot of moneys for 2 extra cores and 5MB cache and lower GHz.

I get the price premium for the 10C part, but I am still most disappointed that the 8C is still $1000. Was hoping that would go to $599 or $699.

I *suspect* these prices will stick until we see competition from higher-performing Zen SKUs and hopefully they will fall a bit and just leave the 10C above $1000.

6C 'enthusiast' parts are getting a little old and have been around forever! Bring on the 8C+ parts. 😛
 
That is rather extreme pricing, and its not even competing with a Xeon. Sad to see.

Finally, you are being educated on what "monopoly" means for customers.

Weren't you the one that said that Intel wouldn't raise prices, under a monopoly condition?

LOL. Welcome to the real world. Maybe that socialist education failed you.

So that is official pricing? I commented ages ago that I wouldn't mind paying more than 1000 USD for the 10 core but if it's coming here at eur 2000 forget it...

Back in my day, we paid $5k for our 4.77 MHz x86 machines. And color was extra. And we liked it!

Well, I'm much older than my posts would lead you to believe. Paying thousands for the machine - fine. Paying thousands just for the cpu? Nope.
 
The price is crazy, I hoped for up to 1500 dollars...What now? I have 5960X and change it for 6900K is non sense (few % of performance up, but...) And 6950X is really too much for my hobby...

Sorry Larry, but as usual you miss the target by a light year. :thumbsdown:

Its an ultra niche product, no matter if you like it or not. There is always an under MSRP for 339$ 6700K on Newegg.
 
If the USGov was even halfway competent (lol?) they would nationalize all the US tech companies, as they all suck on the teat of government funding for 90%+ of their employees and research anyways.

90% subsidized tech that ends up with all revenues offshore in ireland, panama, caymans (as well as on-shore in tax-free states) is simply a guaranteed recipe for the US's collapse in the mid-term.

Wanna know why the US is the last to get full shipments for chips like the 6600k and 6700k?

It's because it's harder to evade taxes on the chips sold directly in the US than it is when it's sold overseas.

If that is the case, then nothing in your PC should cost more than 50$.

90%+ of the research and personnel training for the companies that companies like Intel and the like are derived directly from USGov funding as well as foreign gov funding anyways.

It's silly that the profits are all squirreled away from taxes when almost all of the actual funding is from governments.

All of these companies are simply parasites on the completely propagandized and stupid host and will certainly kill the host in the mid-term (if not sooner).

Looking on revenue and profit. If Intel was to go no profit. All you get would be a 20% cut on all CPUs. Meaning this CPU would still be 1400$.
