came across new slides that reveal Intel's Broadwell processor isn't coming until the second half of 2014. Broadwell is a 14nm shrink of Haswell and it appears mobile platforms will receive it first. In fact, it even seems that socketed versions of Broadwell may not arrive until 2015, as Intel will first reveal a Haswell refresh in Q2 2014.
Instead, Intel has a "Haswell" platform refresh planned for 2014, which will see Intel roll out speed-bumped Core i5 and Core i7 parts based on existing "Haswell" silicon, and at existing price-points. To compensate, Intel is expected to roll out the Haswell-E HEDT (high-end desktop) platform in 2H 2014, which succeeds the upcoming Core i7 "Ivy Bridge-E" platform, and introduces DDR4 system memory support.
