Intel's well kept future processor design secrets

That is just the beginning though. Haswell will utilize new mobile (947 pin) and desktop sockets (1150 pin), which will stay the same through Broadwell "tick".

Debuting in 2014, Broadwell will be the first part manufactured in brand new 14nm technology and represents a further optimization of the Haswell design. According to our sources, Broadwell brings the first true System-on-Chip design, integrating features such as Ethernet, Thunderbolt or USB 3.0 - all inside one single package. This part is already being widely discussed by Far Eastern motherboard vendors as a margin killer, since unless something changes, there won't be room to earn money off building parts for that platform.

Skylake Architecture: 14nm Skylake Tock and 11nm Skymont Tick
There isn't a lot of information available on the 14nm Skylake CPU architecture (2015), sans the completely new CPU core and GPU core, which will work as one. What Larrabee architecture failed to do, Skylake intends to fix, bringing DirectX 12(?) support straight through the CPU pipeline. There is no doubt that Intel will be first to 14nm process, just like the company was with practically every manufacturing process out there. Skymont will be a 11nm "Tock", a die-shrink and a component refresh coming out in mid-2016.
