DOA. And that sucks. I was optimistic for 5% bump in IPC with l4 cache, and decent O.C.

Asking for too much these days hmmm?

The article mentions nothing about IPC, or whether there will be a benefit from the extra cache. The clockspeed is lower as befitting a 65watt TDP, but we have no information on overclocking yet either.

But I agree, 499.00 is way to expensive. Lets wait to see what the official price is.

That will be a terrible seller at that price.

GT2 is enough for people not overly concerned about graphics and if they do care, they will get a discrete card.

Same issue as AMD's APU's.

Except you dont give up cpu performance. I agree though it is a small at best market. If you want good igpu performance, you can get it with AMD at a much cheaper price, if you want really good gpu performance you need a discrete card, and if you want good cpu performance, you would either get 4790k or wait for skylake. If the igp performance is better than Kaveri, I am sure you will see some applications in steam box or SFF systems by builders who are not overly sensitve to price.

New Xeon-D and Pentium-D models

Back in March, Intel launched first "Broadwell-DE" embedded processors for mid-range microserver and communications platforms. Branded as "Xeon D", they were positioned to fill a gap between entry-level Atom C2xxx systems-on-a-chip and much more powerful workstation- and server-class embedded CPUs. The first SKUs, the D-1520 and D-1540, had 4 and 8 CPU cores respectively, and operated at up to 2.6 GHz, which is identical to Atom C2550 and C2750 specs. However, the Broadwell-DE parts utilized "big" cores with a full support for the most recent instruction set extensions, which allowed them to provide much better performance than Atoms with their smaller cores, tuned for lower power. Other features of Xeon D microprocessors included 3MB L3 cache per each pair of CPU cores, dual-channel DDR3L/DDR4 memory controller, PCI-e 2.0 and 3.0 interfaces, SATA 3.0 and USB 3.0 ports, and Ethernet interface.

Following first two models, more Broadwell-DE processors will be released in Q3 2015. They will have better variety of options, such as lower TDP and support for extended temperate operation. According to a preliminary Broadwell-DE lineup, that we have seen, Intel plans 7 different SKUs with 2, 4, 6 or 8 cores, and up to 12 MB of L3 cache.

25W TDP quad-core and 35W TDP octo-core included.

A whole line-up of big-core low-power SKUs with baked in 10 GbE networking? Are they trying to scare ARM AND fiberchannel vendors?

That seems close to a promise of Broadwell compatibility, though it's not explicitly saying that they promise every board will have a new BIOS.

Maybe we will see these new BIOS versions popping up very soon in the compatibility charts.

Many ASRock BIOS were released today described with "1.Update 5th Generation Intel Core Processors microcode. 2.Add NVME support". However, their CPU Support List has not yet been updated with these Broadwell models.

Thanks. I did notice some of those eventually, interestingly with many of the boards the 5th gen code was apparently added several BIOS revisions ago, which made it not immediately apparent that they were Broadwell ready. Recently I picked up an Asus Z97M-Plus; they added Broadwell support to it in February, 4 BIOS revisions ago.

Still no 5775C release? I assumed it would be a June 1st launch or so.

I'm holding out for Skylake, though I'm still quite interested in seeing how the 5775C performs, with it's eDRAM, plus it's overclocking results.

Intel's Computex keynote is later today...

When does the event starts?
I'm expecting Broadwell-K's formal announcement (tomorrow is the rumoured launch) and a few performance figures.
