You can? In the US? Though you just said you couldn't.
I dont care what you can or cant buy in the US. I can buy both Broadwell-C models in the 100s here in Denmark at every retailer.

Seriously? That's interesting.
Ok, great. Denmark is the epicenter of global semiconductor sales...
Ok, great. So the limited desktop Broadwell SKUs are available a few weeks before desktop Skylake... woah!
Honestly, most desktop users would be better served by Skylake than with Broadwell-C.
Its ~2 months and Broadwell-C got a different target. But I am sure you already knew.
Yes I know that. But as things have turned out it would have made more sense to skip Broadwell-C and release a Skylake-C at the same time as the rest of the desktop Skylake SKUs.
I guess the reason is that Broadwell-C/K originally was intended for a much earlier release. But due to the Broadwell 14 nm delays it kept being pushed forward all the way up this close to the desktop Skylake release.
Do you even believe what you post yourself? Skylake/Kabylake-C comes in a year. Thats no news.
Yes of course, now that they've released Broadwell-C this late, they have to follow up with Skylake-C one year later too. Everything gets pushed forward.
Do you really think Intel originally intended desktop Broadwell to be released this late?
Feel free to prove otherwise. Else you are just guessing.
Sure, but I still find it funny that desktop Broadwell is released just weeks before desktop Skylake. They could just as well have skipped Broadwell-C, or made a Skylake-C SKU and released it at the same time as the other desktop Skylake SKUs. But they didn't. Weird times.
An extremely small market considering:
1. Skylake is far better as a CPU
2. You can pair a far better GPU by buying a lower chip
3. Really only for HTPC users that need Core level performance and some level of 3D graphics and with a case small enough that they can't fit in a video card
[/QUOTE]4. You still have to wait for few weeks to get your hands on it
Higher power use with the i7-5775C, but much better performance and efficiency.
With broadwell too
Average power difference is 29W and max is 43W. If you assume 5775C is using maximum 65W then you're looking at the 4790K to be anywhere from 22W to 36W. The latter looks likely.With Gen 9 right around the corner it's clear that Intel is improving their graphics performance per watt. I know this fact might hurt some people's feelings but it's true.
