The First Experience Of Intel Haswell On Linux @ Phoronix

In a Windows world many of us don't consider how our systems run under alternative OS's, given how messed up Windows 8 has been this quest may turn into a reality for most.

Haswell is here, Haswell is here, Haswell is here!!! After talking for months about the Linux kernel and driver development for Intel's Ivy Bridge successor, the heatsink can be lifted today on talking about Intel's Haswell processor. For the past few weeks I have been running and benchmarking an Intel Core i7 4770K "Haswell" processor on Linux to mixed success. While the Haswell improvements are terrific, the Linux experience now is awaiting improvements.

Still need to get my grubby mits on a Hazzy, twill have to wait until after Computex though.
