    tbh there's not a huge performance gap from previous gen parts to current and future gen, the main reason for upgrading is power savings and the odd new feature.
    I've been on i7-920 at 3.7GHz for years and just dropped an X5650 6-core for 90 quid and it's running at 4.2GHz quite happily.
    I think the earliest chance I'll upgrade the thing is Skylake-E in 2016 now.

    The only reason to upgrade at the moment is for chipset features. If you don't need them, no point upgrading

    Perfect gives me enough time for savings, I hope the new Broadwell (i7 5770k) isn't more expensive than Haswell.

    Guessing DDR4 isn't pin compatible with DDR3?

    Skylake will ship with DDR3 and DDR4 controllers http://wccftech.com/intel-10nm-skyla...e-gpu-95w-tdp/

    so not as bad as it might sound. Guess they realised people can't afford DDR4 just yet
