THANK YOU BASED INTEL

so is Intel using the same motherboards for their mainstream AND enthsusiast processors?
i don't get it
Isn't the new socket a hexagon
Thinking about waiting for it
>>55626616
Or they're moving towards a single socket standard where you can mix and match mobos.
>>55626581
>using consumer shit
>not getting xeon over consumer shit
>>55626616
NO
Kaby Lake still uses LGA 1151 and so will Cannonlake
Kaby Lake-X is using Skylake-X's enthusiast socket LGA 2066, basically a new SKU for 4 cores and high clockspeeds
>>55626653
who the fuck gets anything intel? the markup is hilarious and you should feel bad. for the same price you could get several chink CPUs with a 1% drop in performance and spend the rest on a multi socket server board. you would be destroying everyone on /g/.
>>55626680
>china will never release their superior cheap CPU
>>55626581
so basically KBL-X is just KBL-S on LGA2066? what's the point?
>>55626655
No thanks then. The enthusiast board will be out of date just like x99.
LGA 11xx or its successor will be bleeding edge and rock solid as usual.
>>55626723
Intel doesn't want to cut down the 10 core chip to 4 cores, it's probably cheaper to put 4 Kaby Lake-X cores on a LGA 2066 package
>>55626587
>says 4/6/8/10 cores
>still releases dual core desktop processors
>>55626789
yea, but why bother with that in the first place? couldn't they just release KBL-X 10/8/6 later on? unless they're not going to release unlocked versions of KBL for LGA1151, this seems pointless. even then, it's only going to be able to use half the DIMM slots available. just seems half-assed.

>paying enterprise prices for a personal computer
Nah, I don't feel like throwing away money.
OC socket confirmed backwards compatible with Skylake-X
>>55626807
i3's get different silicon.
>>55626934
They might just be 4 cores cut down to 2 as well. Intel has done that.
>>55626893
Protip: you can get the Xeon equivalent for less on many models.
>>55626655
Good goy, my son!
>>55627089
There are downsides to that. Xeons can't be overclocked and they sometimes have lower turbo multiplier.
>>55627151
Non-K models can't be OC'd either hence "equivalent"
>>55626695
Chinese are very secretive about those things, just like their space program.
>>55627170
Oh, but people almost always buy K on desktop.
>>55627189
And half of them don't even bother to OC it
>>55627151
>Xeons can't be overclocked
ASRock sends their regards.
>>55627201
And I'm one of those people. Although knowing that, I just bought a Xeon.
>>55627224
I think Intel disabled that in a microcode update.
>>55626581
>skylake
>buying the technological Jew
>enjoying getting cucked by Microsoft and Intel
Fucking pleb
I dont get it.
Why is Skylake-X better in every way than KabyLake-X ??
Whats the point of KabyLake-X ???????????
>>55627151
>Xeons can't be overclocked and they sometimes have lower turbo multiplier
That information is severely outdated doesn't apply to modern 1xxx series Xeons, which are fully unlocked.

>For a company to go from being so good, to so bad, in just 3 years, shows that something is seriously wrong with AMD. Like Intel, they do not deserve your money.
>>55627246
>muh AMD
>muh "best price-performance" products
Enjoy the increased power bill and heat that only AMD delivers.
>>55627268
Not seeing any information implying they are unlocked. Unless you're talking about Xeons on the 1151 platform, which I don't know anything about.
>tfw I have LGA 1150 mobo & CPU
>yet another socket change
Hoping Zen can beat a 3570k, I would switch to their 8 core in a flash. If they fail, then Skylake-E it is, Broadwell-E can fuck off.
>>55627338
Not as if you'll ever need to upgrade. An OC haswell quad core is all you'll need for almost anything for the foreseeable future.
>>55627338
The only reason there is to upgrade from 1150 is the M2 slot.
Everything else is pretty much the same perfomance wise.
>>55627369
i7 4770
>>55627375
What is there even to upgrade on M.2? There's Z97 boards with x4 M.2. and even NVME support.
