Is this a joke? LOL...why the frig aren't we all just getting the Xeon instead of the 4770. Its a locked server CPU that benches exactly the same as the i7 4770, and its the exact same price as the i5 4670k. Only difference is no Integrated GPU.

Currently $259.99 @Newegg.ca
i7 4770 $319.99 @Newegg.ca
Upon further investigation:
With no IGPU you lose out on QuickSync, and Wireless Display. There might be some other things you lose out on as well. So for people who care about these things (video encoding and syncing media with HDTVs) this is not the CPU for you.
