It is a pity that all the recent innovations are not present in RT...

Should those be integrated in the comparison list or are there only stable features?

For me, the spherical camera e.g. would make a difference in the decision which one to buy today and the other new differences are good to know too.

* Rendering speedups for Haswell (fourth-gen i7 processors)
I tested this fix on my new Haswell system and can verify a nice speed boost :)

In simple scenes, Objects lit by a HDRI for example ,I get a performance gain of up to 33% on my Haswell with these improvements!
Indigos Preview renders also get a 17% to 22% boost depending on material.
Complex interiors still benefit with a gain of 3-5% (maybe even more for other scenes...)

The BIG jump in performance your Haswell get rendering MatID or Depth Pass, the both raise by a sweet +159% speedup in my interior test!!!
