2) Message boards : Questions and problems : CPU Upgrade Roadmap? (Message 46527) Posted 1 Dec 2012 by Jack Post: I recently updated my GPU (HD 7950) and have been having great success with it. It has gotten me thinking about my aging CPU infrastructure (1st gen i5) and the most practical upgrade roadmap. I prefer Intel CPU’s so I started analyzing the LGA 1155 & LGA 2011 platforms. I was considering upgrading my CPU/MOBO to an i7 SandyBridge E (LGA 2011) platform now which would then allow me to upgrade again in about a year (or 1.5 years) to i7 IvyBridge E (LGA 2011?) once prices have dropped a bit. Has anyone heard anything, presumably speculatory at this point, about the Intel plan to release IvyBridge E and if it will in fact be LGA 2011? Or could anyone recommend more efficient ways to allocate my financial resources with respect to an upgrade roadmap? Thanks!
