Personally, this would be the only thing I'd upgrade to in 2014, keeping my 32GB of RAM and Titanx2 from my upcoming Sept 2013 build. Can't imagine two Titans being outdated, by much, until Volta GPUs arrive in 2016. |
I thought they might have 8 core CPUs in the IB-E update but it looks like they won't. 8 core SB-E Xeons are already available with 20mb of cache. I'd imagine the people who don't want to wait, but want the extra cores/threads/cache would just spring for an IB-EP Xeon (or SB-EP Xeon) instead of waiting for Haswell-E. As long as they aren't overclocking.
It's also too bad Haswell-E won't be compatible with current 2011 motherboards as it has the 2011-3 socket.
