Should start showing up at vendors soon

The $64 G3220 (3.0 2C2T) is a lot of bang for little buck.
The $157 i3-3440 (3.6 2C4T) or $93 G3430 (3.3 2C2T) are great if you just need real fast single threaded performance. (lots of legacy crap & some router configs come to mind)

They are letting the pentiums and i3 keep ECC support, great for building cheap workhorse boxes with the newest boards. I'm sure it helps OEMs keep an entire UP server model line to the same standard too ;)

All haswell cores seem to support pci-e 3.0, ivy bridge limited this to i5/i7/xeon on the desktop

They added AES-NI to every i3
I sure hope that is not an error, because vpns around the world cried out in joy :) I got burned by the gpu typo on the E3 1265L v2 :mad:

They added two celeron models, but those are still ivy cores on 1155.

Still nothing about the E5 v2 xeons on ark :(
