    So have they stopped naming the overclockable ones -K or are they not releasing any this round?

    The K chips are apparently being released in 8 weeks according to another reviewer.

    I'm looking forward to a review, that's for sure! If there's enough to warrant an upgrade from a 2500k (and/or a possible upgrade for my htpc too, if the igpu is any good) it's all systems go.

    edit: Hmm.. uninspiring, no igpu upgrade. I was hoping for HD5000/Iris.

    I'm definitely interested in the rumoured "anniversary edition" unlocked Pentium. But that's not listed here either, I guess if it's coming it'll come with the K chips in 8 weeks (assuming that rumour is accurate).

    Iris is going to be a Broadwell thing, not this Haswell refresh. The only thing interesting, for me, is the new material used as TIM.

    I am also very interested in the Anniversary Pentiums but I think my Haswell set up will be gone before they are released so they are of little use to me. :(

    Still waiting for the 14nm chips, which were ment to be released by the end of 2014.

    I'm waiting for Haswell-E stuff, as I couldn't bring myself to go back to a Quad Core cpu now even if a 6 or either core cpu is wasted on what I use it for.
