Intel Haswell Refresh Processors Codenamed Devil’s Canyon – Launching in Mid 2014 With Unlocked Desi

Devil's Canyon OC Competition at Computex 2014

For overclockers attending Computex 2014, Intel® is hosting the Intel® OC Challenge for Amateurs alongside a bigger overclocking competition. The Intel® OC Challenge for Amateurs features 8 overclockers competing on air cooling using the new Z97 motherboards and upcoming Haswell K-SKU series CPUs. The registration for this competition is open. All you need to do is submit an XTU result using either the Core i5 4670K or the Core i7 4770K to this competition page. From the selection of submissions we then select the 8 participants at random.

Does this mean it is launching in June?
 
Because of its stock clock, this is going to look pretty good in reviews.
I don't quite believe the 4.1GHZ rumour though.

Yeah will have pretty epic stock performance, wandering if the 4.1Ghz is the turbo boost? 4.1Ghz > 4.4Ghz seems to good to be true :p

If it is, Broadwell successor would have to be clocked high at launch to surpass Devil's Canyon.. 4.2Ghz > 4.5Ghz ?
 
4.4GHZ boost performance sounds too good to be true, but it'd make sense (Boost being 400MHZ over stock, like the 2500K boosted to 3.7 from 3.3), 4.1GHZ boost would be pointless.
 
from what i gather it will be a big jump on the top end chips!
8 physical non AMD cores!

i can def hold out till Q3..probably!

Anything will be a big jump for me - E8400 user currently lol. But I'm going back to college as a mature student in 2015, so poverty awaits for 3 or 4 years. My next build has to last!
