Now that Haswell’s available in consumer-grade laptops, it’s time to look at what’s next on Intel’s to-do list. A leaked slide-deck is claiming that Haswell-E, the enthusiast version of the chip, is coming in the second half of 2014. The documents also promise that Intel will axe the 4-core base model in favor of 6-and-8-core editions of the CPU, which can pack up to 20MB of L3 cache. At the same time, the company is likely to release the Wellsburg motherboard chipset, which can support DDR4 RAM with a clock speed of up to 2,133MHz. If it’s all to be believed, then we have one word of advice to the overclocking community — best start stocking up onliquid nitrogen.
