Report: Intel Haswell CPU Pricing Possibly Leaked
The prices of eight of the Haswell CPUs have been leaked.
VR-Zone has what could be leaked pricing information on a number of Haswell processors, and the list includes pricing for the flagship i7-4770K and the i5-4670K. The i7-4770K will have an MSRP price of $327, and the i5-4670K will cost $230, making it $35 more expensive than AMD's flagship FX-8350 chip.
Pricing has only been leaked for eight different chips though, while a total of 14 Haswell CPUs will be shipped on launch day.
Model | Core / Threads | Base / Turbo | L3 Cache | GPU | Memory | TDP | MSRP |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Core i7-4770 | 4 / 8 | 3.4 / 3.9 GHz | 8 MB | HD 4600 | 1,200 MHz | 84 W | $292 |
Core i7-4770K | 4 / 8 | 3.5 / 3.9 GHz | 8 MB | HD 4600 | 1,250 MHz | 84 W | $327 |
Core i7-4770S | 4 / 8 | 3.1 / 3.9 GHz | 8 MB | HD 4600 | 1,200 MHz | 65 W | $285 |
Core i5-4670 | 4 / 4 | 3.4 / 3.8 GHz | 6 MB | HD 4600 | 1,200 MHz | 84 W | $209 |
Core i5-4670K | 4 / 4 | 3.4 / 3.8 GHz | 6 MB | HD 4600 | 1,200 MHz | 84 W | $227 |
Core i5-4570 | 4 / 4 | 3.2 / 3.6 GHz | 6 MB | HD 4600 | 1,150 MHz | 84 W | $189 |
Core i5-4570S | 4 / 4 | 3.0 / 3.6 GHz | 6 MB | HD 4600 | 1,150 MHz | 65 W | $182 |
Core i5-4430 | 4 / 4 | 3.0 / 3.2 GHz | 6 MB | HD 4600 | 1,100 MHz | 84 W | $175 |
The validity of these prices cannot be confirmed, so take it all with a grain of salt.
We can expect the Haswell CPUs to be released in June.

killerclick 10711270 said:Are they really going to be that cheap? I wish I could believe this.
Prices are in line with Ivy Bridge, and seeing how the relative improvements in performance are significantly smaller than 5-6 years ago, I think this is pretty expensive. -
milesk182 That's dirt cheap for Intel! If this is true i better get these for $50 through intelretailedge :)Reply -
DRosencraft Considering how much more expensive Intel tends to be relative to AMD, I'd say one of three things are happening here;Reply
A. Intel is conceding smaller margins because the step up in performance is not as significant.
B. Intel is trying to put pressure on AMD by pricing much closer to them.
C. These leaked prices are false. -
hixbot Cheap? These prices are exactly in line with Ivy Bridge and Sandy Bridge before them.Reply
3 years with no significant change in performance per dollar. That is truly disappointing. -
SteelCity1981 have some of you been living under a rock? these are the same prices that ivy bridge is selling for.Reply -
ubercake So the new processor anyone will ever need for gaming is the 4670K and the top is the 4770K.Reply
At least they're consistent.
Microcenter will probably sell the 4470K for $279.99 and the 4670K for $189.99. -
Soma42 I'm surprised that these don't cost more considering AMD's mediocre performance as of late. Here's to hoping for Steamroller and competition!Reply -
snwkill What's the point? Until they figure out a way to bust through 4, 5 , 6 GHz stock there is absolutely no reason to upgrade. No (decently made) game is CPU bottlenecked and the pipelines of the Ivy bridge aren't even close to being fully utilized.Reply
