According to DigiTimes, Intel will release 20 new processors for its “Haswell Refresh” platform, covering the Intel Core, Pentium and Celeron series. The SKUs include the Core i7-4790, Core i5-4690, Core i5-4590, Core i3-4360, Pentium G3450 and Celeron G1840.

As for the unlocked K-series Haswell Refresh products like the Core i7-4790K and Core i5-4690K, our past experience tells us that the pair would most likely be launched at Computex 2014. As for the next generation, 14nm-based Broadwell processors, they are expected to be launched at the end of the year.
