Tech giant Intel is launching a new socket LGA 2066 to support their Skylake-X and Kaby Lake-X processors. They will have Skylake-X and Kaby Lake-X launching simultaneously in second half of 2017. While Skylake-X will feature SKUs with up to 10 cores, Kaby Lake-X will offer an intermediary solution to enthusiasts who want to upgrade to HE-DT platforms without breaking their budget.
The Kaby Lake-X processors will feature only 4 cores but the update to Kaby Lake-X will arrive in 2018. This will be in the form of Coffee Lake-X which is listed to feature a 6+2 die configuration. This means that Coffee Lake X series will feature 6 core SKUs measuring at a die size of 149mm2. Also surprisingly, Intel will be offering the chips with GT2 level graphics chip which is interesting to see as their previous enthusiast lines excluded the GPU part from the main chip.
