Haswell

[Josh_]

Do you think the price of i5 3570k's will fall on release of haswell?

 

[Flashheart]

Probably not

 

[Jay Blizzay]

Not by much if at all but probably will be able to pick up some second hand bargains from those wanting to upgrade

 

[RJC]

I suspect it will stay pretty much the same, have a look at the 2500k usually only £10 cheaper than the 37570k.

 

[Anox]

As said above, probably people that upgrade will be flogging these like mad.

 

[shadow_boxer]

Not likely. Maybe will see a few more offers here and there and on daily/weekly offers to try and clear stock. The i5 4670K should come in around a very similar price point.

Pick up a good second hand 3570k for about £110, 3770k about £180 or something.

From shops the old gen won't drop in price. If you look now the 2500k is still really expensive.

I sold my 3570k for £130 (or 135? can't remember) late February.

Right here, there's a members market for users with a post count >1000. Crackin deals in there.

The price never goes down when new processors are released. Stock just becomes harder to get hold of and this actually causes prices to rise in some cases.
