Intel demonstrates 65W Broadwell-K at GDC

[Dave2150]

I dont understand the talk about the 4790k being a direct competitor CPU to the one mentioned above when its aimed at mini pc's and desktop all in ones.

It's confusing indeed. Intel have confirmed it's aimed at mini pc's and all in ones, though they also confirmed it's an unlocked part.

Intel obviously realise that Z97 owners are expecting a 4790k successor, if this 65w Broadwell-K part is slower than the 4790k then there'll be quite a bit of disappointment.

All will be quickly forgotten once Skylake launches though

Haswell itself is aimed at "Mini PCs and desktop All-In-Ones", Intel just package it up differently and sell it on the desktop too.

As long as Broadwell can match or beat 4790K, and run cooler I will switch, get some of the heat out of Mini ITX. Got my 4770K under a Kuhler 920 which has drastically lowered temps but it still runs to hot for my liking.

Roll on 5770K !!

Agreed, i have a pretty ok 4790k. But if broadwell runs cooler, clocks high i could be temptrd if it works on Z87. If not it's skylake or X99 as prices will be a bit lower.

Just need something 10%+ faster than my 3770k in games to make me upgrade.

Which applications do you run when getting high temperatures?

For games alone, all the 4790k systems I built run quite cool, even those where the customer only wanted the default hsf (65dc max temperature in a 2 hour bf4 session for example).

Temps across the board are to high for my liking. If I bench the chip it would touch 100c @ stock on the last cooler. Now It will spike to high 80c's even under water (AIO).

These just run damned hot, a die shrink will be very welcome

I assume your talking about overclocked temperatures, at higher voltages?

At stock, the 4790k will not reach 100dc even on the stock hsf.

As above. If your running 100c at stock I'd check that the heatsink is mounted correctly.

They'll only hit 100c or thereabouts at stock if you blitz them with AVX stress tests. Normal usage they're grand.

Boomstick777 is using Mini ITX case must get a lot hotter then a normal ATX case I've have a Shuttle xpc that thing like a mini oven with a stock i5 2500K cpu/ 670gtx gpu.

Interesting thread not upgrading now will wait six months should know all about Broadwell by then.
