Broadwell will offer better than 5% IPC over Haswell yet offer large TDP reductions.

Will be interesting to see what gains are made at the high end, now AMD has effectively stopped targeting that segment.

Is it the video that mentions > 5% IPC gains? As I don't see mention of it in the article.

It's included in the third slide from the top entitled 'Broadwell Converged-Core'. The reproduced writing is a bit small though.

Bit out of the loop on this one - will they be doing a socket 1150 version as a dropin replacement for Haswell?

This is the mobile chip at the moment, and is in no way suitable for socket 1150. We've yet to see what Intel will do for desktop, but if it contains the same kinds of changes it'll need a new socket too - the physicality of the new CPU is very different.

I was under the impression that the Broadwell-H version was a desktop 1150 variant and was delayed until 2015. In terms of motherboards I think they said that the new Z97 and Z99 would be compatible. Don't quote me on that though.

I'm hoping Microsoft will do a Surface 3 refresh when Broadwell M drops because at the moment the throttling issues with the device is the only thing putting me off.

X99 is socket 2011, not 1150, but I think you're right, there was the roadmap that puts broadwell-H/K on the mainsteam 1150 socket:

It's probably just the mobile one (core-M) that has this fancy packaging that wouldn't work on existing sockets.
