Intel seem to be struggling though, with shrinking not working out as they planned. They've missed one upgrade-round with the delay to Broadwell, and if the rumours are correct and they're releasing a couple of CPUs and then jumping to Skylake - that's quite a hit to ROI given the investment they've put in to an 'unused' chip family IMO.

Broadwell was delayed but Skylake is well on track. While there are not many Broadwell Desktop CPUs worth buying right now (Core i7-5775C and i5-5675C offer superb perf/watt though, especially the iGPU) the new round of mobile CPUs is still impressive and will certainly sell well before skylake comes around.

Thanks, that's good to know. Guess I'm a bit sore as I held out for a 97 chipset motherboard for months (when I really needed a new PC) with the aim of using Haswell and then switching to Broadwell and future proofing. With the lack of Broadwell desktop CPUs I could've saved money and gone for 87 chipset, and planned a Skylake replacement...

Is Skylake on track for laptop OEMs to ship new devices in 2015?

Lenovo released Broadwell laptops in Q1, it is hard to believe they will release Skylake before 2016.

For all we know it looks like it http://www.3dcenter.org/dateien/abbildungen/Intel-Prozessore...

Guess it's their time for another Pentium4/Bulldozer mistake ?
