    System upgrade from Core i7 1366

    I'm looking to upgrade from a 1366 Core i7 and I'm wondering which is the best chipset/socket to go for currently? Is it Haswell or Sandy Bridge Enthusiast? I do note the discussions about a possible wait for Haswell rev 2.0 boards though...

    Thanks for any assistance

    If you don't have need for much compute then Haswell is probably all you need.
