QUOTE(Clem1982 @ May 14 2013, 11:32 PM) Noo telling when exactly Haswell is coming, if you can wait just wait but if not, no biggie going for the current tech Cool, thanks for the reply.Almost no different in terms of performance for normal use so just get the highest capacity you can per stick so that you can upgrade more in the future Decided to dig a bit on Google and apparently: QUOTE Release date Intel is tipped to officially launch Haswell chips during Computex in Taiwan at the start of June. Speaking at Intel’s Developer Forum in Beijing, Kirk Skaugen, general manager of the PC client group at Intel confirmed the processors will start shipping in Q2. -http://www.itpro.co.uk/desktop-hardware/19655/intel-haswell-release-date-and-specs I'll wait it out, then!
