Was it not supposed to be 10 cores? And 1750? Seriously? So if i hypothetically wanted to upgrade my aging 980x, which was 960 EUROs about 6 years ago, now i gotta pay 2x as much for its successor? Awesome.

Not sure why you'd consider that price representative?
I thought its MSRP
Are these ES samples or something? How did he get ahold of them, and how is he getting by with selling them on E-Bay? I can see selling them on the sly, but E-Bay???
They're not listed as ES. They're listed as retail chips.

The current rumored price for the 10 core is $1499.99

Thanks. Still 500 more than my 980x and to my knowledge every other EE CPU since then until now.... or was the current 5960x more than that? Not sure.
Isn't that some overclocked chip?That Cinebench 11.5 score - 15.14 points, on an 8 core 16 thread CPU, is slower than the 5960x benchmark I just googled
(here: http://extreme.pcgameshardware.de/a...5-cinebench-r15-u-cinebench-2003-a-cb11.5.png )
where the 5960x scored 16.88 points. I'm not expecting the 5960x to be as fast as the 6900K, so hopefully I've made a mistake in my comparison somewhere.
Agreed. BTW ES are not the property of the possessor but of Intel. BE CAREFUL. In addition LTC8K6 is spot on with his analysis. You can't register a ES. You can purchase Intel OCing protection plan for it (@$35 to assure a new chip if it burns out by OCing).It's probably at least $500 faster...
Except this particular one is a pre-production sample that may not even work properly...
Broadwell-E is not for gamers.Broadwell with L4 and skylake with fast DDR4 will be much faster in games.
