The chip dies are getting smaller though:



But the chip price has not gone down correspondingly. We'll see with Broadwell, but somehow I suspect it will be more expensive per die area than e.g. Nahalem or SB.

I payed roughly 50% more for my E6600 than I did for my 4670. And the 4670 die is bigger.

And thats not even including inflation in the factor to the E6600 price.
 
Core i7-5820K 6/12 3,3–3,6 GHz 15 MB 140 W $426
Core i7-4960X 6/12 3,6–4,0 GHz 15 MB 130 W $999

$573 for 300/400 Mhz more. Anyone got the 4960X on their shopping list? 😱
 
I have to wonder if ShopBLT is marking up the i7-5820K (for pre-order) more than the other Haswell-E SKUs?

And after launch we see a much better price on the i7-5820K than simply 10% lower?

Pffft. You buy this and you'll be stuck with it while others move to Skylake and beyond. The 4770 is already close up to the 3930K unless its something heavily multithreaded. I'll move to hexa once games really need it and it likely enters mainstream.

22nm is so last year, yawn.

My next chip will be 14nm or bust. Don't care if they solder it or not, can bring my own CLU to the party.

I'm coming around to that way of thinking. Broadwell-E is Q4 of 2015, so that's what I'm aiming for (hexacore). If it doesn't look like I'll stick with development work - I may even drop back to a standard desktop Skylake i7 :hmm:.

Lets see how the 14nm 6-Core will be priced.

As I recall we didn't see much price change with the transition of Sandy Bridge-E to Ivy Bridge-E. (In fact, didn't the i7- 4820K actually cost more money than the i7-3820?) So I wonder if Broadwell-E will be the same way?

Maybe Skylake-E will be the 14nm where we see another price break?

I wish socket LGA 2011-3 would support Skylake-E, but some will change as per usual. Otherwise, SL-E should be an awesome CPU (w/AVX 3.X); though I wouldn't expect a price break.
 
I dont really expect prices to go down in absolute dollars. But performance is still going up, albeit slowly, and the inflation adjusted price is coming down, so I dont see a problem with prices.

Clock speed drops compared to IB-E and more cost? That really isn't very impressive.

All those stock speeds tell you is what they were able to achieve to fit within 140W TDP. What will matter is what they overclock to. Also I'm not sure how you come up with more cost, looks like 6c will be coming down.

The LGA 2011/HEDT platform is skipping Skylake-E and Cannonlake-E for Icelake-E.

LGA 2011-3 (Haswell-E) (2015) -> LGA 2011-3 (Broadwell-E) (2016) -> LGA 2011-X (Icelake-E) (2017)
LGA 115x (Skylake) (2015) -> LGA 115x (Cannonlake) (2016) -> LGA 1xxx (Icelake) (2017)

Icelake is apparently on something new but I can't get the Carbon soot out of my ears.

Well close to $399 as i have said, i guess those are 8-core dies. It seams Intel STILL doesn't want more people buying the HEAD platform. . . .
Click to expand...

What is the HEAD platform?

And now I'm pondering: my kid's Photoshop machine -- will it process complicated images faster with 6 cores on a 5820, or with 4 OC'd cores on a 4790k?
 
I'll probably get a 5960X depending upon how well they seem to clock on average. I like the idea of even more cores, but I'd like to gain a bit in single threaded performance as well above what I already have for it to be worthwhile.

I expect it to go down eventually. There's just a lot of factors involved that can bring that price drop sooner or later. Viable EUV for instance could seriously help lower costs, as could AMD returning to relevance, and how high ARM is able to scale up their designs. 450mm will surface eventually as well. I'm expecting things to change sometime around "late" 10nm or "early" 7nm. That date's awfully fluid, though, which is why I'm putting it in terms of nodes.

That's for mainstream though. I think we'll actually see Broadwell-E bring 6 core prices down a bit. The platform cost might still be discouragingly high, though.
 
My 4930K (along with the rest of my desktop, more or less) suffered a fatal accident.

Looks like I'll be building a new system this fall, and at the heart of it will probably be the lowest-end 6 core HSW-E.

Unfortunately, girlfriends are expensive, so it looks like I won't be upgrading until next year. I think I'm going to get BDW-E, although that will depend on what Skylake ends up looking like, and what both platforms cost.

If AMD has something to replace their aging 8350, I might look into that. I've got plenty of time to sit back and watch things develop. I'm not in any rush to replace this i5-750 system I picked up for $200.

🙂

For now, I'm using a Haswell i3-4130 based system. It's actually a nice little thing and I'm half thinking of just grabbing a used 4770K from the FS/FT forum, a bunch of RAM, and a new GPU and calling it a day...

EDIT: This half thought is evolving rather rapidly into a full one. Hmm...
