Does the new i3 or i5 supports hyper-threading?

Does the new i3 or i5 supports hyper-threading? I will be using it some data-processing and was planning to build a PC for that 1-2 years ago, and found that only i7 supports this. With the new Haswell i3 / i5, I wonder if it does as well?

i3 4330 2c/4t
i5 4670k 4c/4t
i7 4770k 4c/8t

In short, the i3 supports HT, while the i5 doesnt. Not sure of that applies to all skus though.

Note that the i7 listed above uses LGA socket 1150.

I am not too familiar with all those model numbers 4330 or 4670k or whatever. Is there a way I can easily find out?

All current-gen, mainstream, non-R desktop parts use 1150.
