Just saw it and wanted to share, haven't even looked at the numbers yet.

Ok, well i wasn't looking in too deep or anything, but skimming. I'd say the cpu is about expected, maybe 10% faster, but of course overclocking is going to be better, but even if i had the money, i don't think it's upgrade worthy from a 26/700k. As for the gpu, that's a big leap from the 3000, not quite a 6550D yet, but it was about 3/4-4/5 as powerful i think, and the dx11 computing was really good. Also they mentioned that the HD performance is very dependent on drivers, and since these are pre-launch drivers, there could be some decent increases in-store there.
Overall seems like a good solid processor, and their tick-tock is going really well so for, but that's just a die shrink and a new gpu, the haswell architecture change might be more of a challenge.
