After Intel released the Haswell Refresh CPU lineup, it was just a matter of time before we see some informations leaked about the Core i3 and Pentium CPUs based on the same architecture. Furthermore, we finally have a fixed release date for the upcoming Intel Haswell-E CPUs and the X99 Express chipset, and we are really looking forward to it, since it is gonna bring DDR4 memory to the market.

Despite the fact that the X99 Express chipset is nowhere near the consumer market, it is still very interesting to know when we will finally see that new DDR4 memory on the market.

Usually, when VR-Zone leaks something, it is true and today they are saying that September 2014 will be the right moment for the new Intel Haswell-E Core i7 CPUs and the X99 based motherboard. In less than 3 months, we will see some new CPUs. The 20th of July will also be an interesting day, since Intel is planning to release the new Core i3 and Pentium CPUs based on the Haswell architecture, which will replace the Core i3-4370, i3-4360T, i3-4160 and i3-4160T and Pentium G3460, G3450T, G3250 and G3250T.

Those who do not need the power of a Core i5 or Core i7 CPUs, will like the fact that the new “T” CPUs, the low power lineup, will feature even a lower TDP than the current CPUs. We just have to wait and see how these new CPUs are going to perform.
