MillField Daemon Poster Messages 613 Location Ireland Nov 11, 2013 #5 I heard battery life is amazing on Haswell. Anyone here running a Haswell machine?
PP Mguire Build Guru Messages 32,592 Location Fort Worth, Texas Nov 11, 2013 #6 I think Sean is, but he may have stuck with his 3770k. My LAN box will probably be Haswell unless 1150 gets a good refresh.
