Hi guys
Some very interesting info regarding the upcoming Skylake-X/Kabylake-X cpus has been leaked on the anandtech forums by a poster who appears to have inside knowledge of the X299 cpus. Intel will be using i9 labelling for the Skylake-X processors replacing the previous i7 extreme naming of the HEDT parts. All the Skylake-X cpus use X nomenclature at the end of their names.
Interesting that i5 which was rumoured to be on X299 is actually and i7-7640k with 4 threads. The 6 & 8 core parts have only 28 PCI-E lanes whilst the full 44 PCI-E lanes have been relegated to 10 core and 12 core parts. The base clock speeds look pretty good .
Just need to know the pricing now.
