Awesome deal, cementing Intel's dominance over the market.

Skylake is now quite a lot cheaper than a 5820k setup, when you factor in the more expensive motherboards, and more expensive ram (4 sticks needed for x99, 2 needed for z170).
 
Amazing how the basic i7's are still hyperthreaded quad cores, 8 years after the 920 was originally released. Nothing much has changed.

You don't need four sticks for x99. Most users could run two sticks without any noticeable difference.

So far from quad channel memory being a potential weakness its a strength as dual channel is fine for now but there's the option for greater bandwidth later on with a quad channel memory kit. Z170 you're stuck with a dual channel controller and can only increase bandwidth through you upping the speed with less headroom than quad channel

Top end x99 and z170 boards cost about the same ... Or more in z170's case

The cheapest z170 boards are inferior to the cheapest x99 boards

Z170

X99

5820k retail chips with a game software bundle which can be sold on the mm for £20-30 have been sold on 'offer' on the internet recently (like the 6700k being on offer here) for just over £300

Kabylake will be another 4c/8t CPU and the top end i7 will almost certainly not represent a meaningful upgrade from a 6700k as it will be based on the same CPU design manufactures on the same 14nm process with the biggest difference being an improved igpu. Buy an x99/5820k setup now and you could have a meaningful upgrade to a 8 or 10 core broadwell CPU down the line

So unless you're going cheap on your motherboard (and why would you want to do this with an i7 setup if you want to make the most of it and overclock the CPU and memory) x99 and z170 setups will still likely cost similar amounts

Whilst a step in the right direction, this is only for an oem chip. 4790k retail went for not much more than this on release.
 
let intel keep prices up people arent buying so they will come down soon.

reports of 25 percent down on :p enthusiast upgrades this last year. i wonder why :D

the i5 should be 150-170 the i7 240

most people have what they need on enthusiast scene for last 2-4 years. going to be some hard sells for next year or two.

its simply not true that Intel have been ramping up prices of late. Sales are down because gains since sandybridge have been small and most people simply do not need to upgrade the increase in cost is due to inflation, the £/$ exchange rate and stock shortages leading to retailers charging more... No because of Intel!

Its simply not true that Intel have ramped up the price of their I7 CPU's over previous gens in recent years.

The price we pay fluctuates due to the £/$ exchange rate and (especially with Skylake) shortages in the retail channels (in was candidly admitted on these forums last year by a member of ocuk staff that retailers in general were making much larger percentages than normal on Skylake chips as the demand was far outstripping the supply so retailers could charge a bigger premium.)

I have previously demonstrated that Intel have NOT ramped up their pricing in recent years... Its just not true!

Previously posted........




Current Intel recommended pricing for the 6700k ...... $350!

http://ark.intel.com/products/88195/Intel-Core-i7-6700K-Processor-8M-Cache-up-to-4_20-GHz


Adjusted for inflation in $ the 6700K is not more expensive then your 2600k at launch ($317 in January of 2011) Allowing for inflation = circa $350 in 2016 money!

From 2011 to 2016 the $ to £ has fluctuated from 0.6 to 0.7 so your 2500k in 2016 money could cost £186.67 before inflation is factored in.

The cumulative inflation rate from 2011 to 2015 for the $ is 5 4% that takes the adjusted cost up to £196.75.

Factor in skylake stock shortages and the current costs are not surprising

if sales are down with no effective competition at the high end why would Intel drop prices

Nice deal, but I'm still holding my 2600k (which cost me £220 new, oem as well) until the next generation is released.

Nothing seems to have really improved in 5+ years. They even use the same amount of power :/

I'm actually considering buying used parts to make a 5820k build. Comes to about £420 with ram and MB.

6700k is a dirty word on this forum! Folks are still sore over the launch price, and it didn't help that z170 needs DDR4. But you're right, at this price it slots better into Intels product stack.
 
it will drop lower no one much is buying them.

retailers are hoping people buy in the new tech but most people as you can see have reasonable systems and holding off.

you will see another £20-30 quid off them in next month or so .

That an Intel will be releasing new chips later in the year, so they are hoping to shift them all before then :P
