Intel Demonstrates Haswell-E With DDR4 Memory On X99 Chipset

The PC showcased by Intel featured an Haswell-E processor which would be based on the same microarchitecture as the current 22nm Haswell processors. No specifications were mentioned but the chip was paired with DDR4 ? Quad Channel memory. The motherboard featured an X99 chipset but this isn?t a retail variant but rather a dev board which Intel showcases during their event and its a bit early to showcase a retail sample anyways. The chip was supported by the new LGA 2011-13 socket which would support Haswell-E processors but would not support Ivy Bridge-E or Sandy Bridge-E processors due to different power configurations and memory controller.

Intel?s Haswell-E platform would replace the current Ivy Bridge-E HEDT (High End Desktop) platform and would be based on the latest second generation 22nm Hi-K process architecture. The most interesting part is that Intel would finally be providing upto 8 core SKUs in their desktop lineup with the launch of Haswell-E. Intel has detailed 6-8 cores for their Haswell-E processors that would be equipped with massive 20 MB of L3 smart cache and just like Haswell, would feature an integrated voltage regulator ?FVIR? and the flagship part would ship with TDPs around 130 ? 140W which is impressive since that?s 10-20W under what we get on the Core i7-3970X which has 6 cores compared to the Haswell-E beast that would feature 8 cores, faster clocks and 20 MB of L3 cache. Intel is aiming for an 55% IPC improvement over quad cores with their flagship Haswell-E processors

192GB DDR4  

 

12 X 16GB kits i guess

 

*mind blown*

 

once again  PC leapfrog over Consoles :P

 

with that being 2 X 16 GB dual channel kit would be new standard!

HEDT FTW! Pure, absolutely unnecessary and yet most important to have... POWEEERRR (read in Jeremy Clarkson's voice)

 

On an unrelated note, I should borrow cable management practices from this here. I'll just cover half of the window by some piece of plastic and the remaining ruckus by a paper that reads "Ultimate Gaming Reference Platform" or something.
