    Slated for initial public release in Q1 2013, Haswell is based on 22nm process technology and is the successor to Ivy Bridge. It is a tock, meaning a brand new processor micro-architecture.



    Reduction in connected standby power by 30% compared to Sandy Bridge.
    Connected standby battery life to last up to 10 days.
    Hardware support for transactional memory.
    Support for Intel’s Transactional Synchronization Extensions (TSX), a new set of instructions designed to improve multi-core efficiency.

    My thread titles are not meant to be comical except to the members of this forum who know how I like to look far ahead at new CPU architectures. Plus the titles make for a nice series in which you know what to expect in each thread.

    I am so waiting for Quantum GPGPU's right now... No point in these 22nm archaic designs! :p
