L4 eDRAM?

I'm looking at Intel's announcement of Broadwell LGA HD 5200 parts, and I can't help but think about the 128MB of L4. Anand said that it acts as a true cache, so when the GPU needs it most of the cache is allocated there and if you have a discrete card installed, the CPU has 1MB L2, 6MB L3 and 128MB L4.

 

Could this make it a lot faster than GT2 i7s like the 4770? In the benchmarks I think the 4770R managed to beat out the 4770 even though it only has 6MB of L3.
