The talk of configurable TDP keeps on coming up, I really hope they allow user-configurable TDP (instead of just OEM).
I'd love a dockable tablet with the ability to enter a 'low-power' mode where the fan never has to spin up (or maybe only have the fan in the dock?).
Hsawell is not a big deal, just another integration and bug fix's. Its more than likely most the clock speed advantage's of a properly made 22nm product (unlike ivy bridge) will be ate up entirely by integration.
Per usual " Doubling " their integrated graphics speed is basically just Intel's way of saying it's only half as slow as their last gen.
How many times is Intel going to " double " gpu performance and still have crap GPU performance? People on these forums are like " zmog double the speed !! " and are greeted with poor 3D performance/driver support every time.
Will Haswell be the clincher CPU of this decade?

If they double the performance of HD4000 then it's actually a half-decent gaming GPU. So it is a huge deal if they deliver on that promise since it will make gaming on a tight budget very affordable. Even more so since laptops aren't usually 1080p resolution so it will go even further. Haswell can potentially bring 3D gaming to the budget buying masses.
Haswell: 2x battery life, 20x standby, 2x Graphics, AVX2, Hardware Random Number Generator, integrated thunderbolt
Consumers get lots of performance in terms of computational power and battery life and connectivity.
Broadwell: Die Shrink of Haswell, Multi Chip Package
Consumers get a small bump in computational power and vendors get cheaper/easier to produce motherboards.
Skylake: DDR4....
More bandwidth?
Seems like everything after Haswell is underwhelming in comparison. I know they are farther out, so fewer details, but still it seems like they aren't as big of a leap as Haswell will be.
Who uses a GPU on CPU die to play todays game. 95 percent of people have video cards.
Guys I could care less about GPU performance, its going to be off. Who uses a GPU on CPU die to play todays game. 95 percent of people have video cards.
I could care less what haswell does with GPU performance and power drawn.
I want performance and cores. Im going to buy the 1k Haswell 6 core 12 thread monster and never upgrade until 2020. Thank you
When you make this stuff up do you ever wonder, even for a brief 500ms, if people are going to question yet-another-BS-statistic-from-tweakboy?
95%? Really!?
Maybe he meant 95% of those that play games have a discrete GFX card?

I dont want to start a flame war but we already have CPUs(APUs) that bring 3D gaming to the budget buyer. Unless you mean from Intel.

AMD's marketshare is what, maybe 30%, and of that 30% what percentage is based on APUs
