That's the problem with speculation, it's often wrong. X299 has a lot more to offer than what you're saying it does. The number of lanes and where doesn't tell you the whole story.

I agree with the point about speculation, even though its from a credible source who has been correct in the past.
The way I read it at the moment, is they have added a extra x4 PCIe to add support for Optane which will boost the total PCH bandwidth to 8GB/s raw without any compression algorithms. However, connectivity without bandwidth is pointless!
Just out of curiosity what are you links to Intel? Are you a reviewer or professional OC'er etc....?
Please share this inside knowledge of yours then. What more is it offering?

Neither, you should see the crap he was spouting in the ryzen thread. It's best to ignore his claims until he has something to back them up with.
A lot of people went X99 purely for 6+ cores. In that case, Coffee Lake might make more sense (although why anyone would "upgrade" from Haswell onwards at this moment in time is beyond me). If you went X99 for the extra PCIe lanes, Z370 won't cut it for you, and neither will Ryzen.Anyone looking to Coffee Lake coming from x99? Or is it only worth going Skylake-x? Wondering if the difference between mainstream and high end is going to be non existent.
Yeah platform features as much important as IPC i suppose, but then there isn't a huge gap in IPC in the first place. I probably wouldn't even notice the difference in performance between any of them for general use & gaming, i guess I'll wait for testing results and see what things are like.A lot of people went X99 purely for 6+ cores.
