Haswell -E Core i7-5960X, 5930K, 5820K specifications

Just to repeat a few posts, but thinking that any new 6 core Intel CPU is going to be less than £500 is just wishful thinking.

Maybe £480 or there abouts, but it's not going to be anywhere near the price of the current 1150 i7 (£280).

Seriously doubt the 5820 will be over £350.

If it's less than £350 Intel are going to be eating into their highly profitable 4790K sales, X99 isn't intended to be mainstream so it will be priced as such.

Looking at the specs my guess would be £430ish for the 5820K and £500ish for the 5930K.

Prices were already leaked. 5820k won't be that expensive.

Sorry but that's tosh :P

Intel have always priced the lower 'E' tier to compete with the mainstream stuff. Intel 3820K VS 3770K, 4820K VS 4770K, 5820K should be -£350, Intel want to encourage more people onto the extreme platform, not put them off..

Hope you get better soon 8 Pack, had some major problems with my back over past year+ so I feel for ya. Worst part is can't work, lift, or run atm. Not being able to exercise properly sucks. Slowly adapting though..

You didn't accidentally drink LN2 instead of a protein shake or something?

absolutely this, it won't eat into their sales of the mainstream i7 because of the price of the rest of the platform as well.
