Hi all I have tried looking this up but every mention of a 6770k seems to be a misconception and actually be in relation to the 6700k. I am moving to skylake in the next few months and was wondering if there will be a more powerful skylake hitting the market at any point. Any information would be greatly appreciated

just get the 6700K and OC to 4.6 GHz it's almost as fast as a 6 core stock cpu.

Broadwell-E should be released soon. Basically, there'll be the 6800K and 6850K (hexacore), the 6900K (octacore) and the flagship 6950X (deca-core).

Be nice to each other boys and girls. And don't cheap out on a power supply.

No, i think the 6700k is the top tier flagship and will be for a while since Intel first got to release Broadwell-E before they do Skylake-E.

6770K? yea that's the 6700K.

 

every Skylake chip for the LGA 1151 socket has almost certainly been released. anything more powerful would render the larger CPU's a bit of a moot point unless you NEED dem cores/threads.

Aftermarket 980Ti >= Fury X >= Reference 980Ti > Fury > 980 > 390X > 390 >= 970 > 380X > 380 >= 960 > 950 >= 370 > 750Ti = 360

Well, there is kaby lake coming out relatively soon, but there should be no skylake refresh.

God I hope not. Skylake seems like it is what Broadwell should have been, and broadwell is a footnote at this point.

 

By the end of the year we going to see at least one new intel processor generation if not two, last years pair barely improved upon Haswells performance. 

 

I think this is a wait and see year if only for the prospects of Zen FX processors, is there really an argument for z170 and Skylake and DDR4 over z97 with devils canyon and DDR3 in terms of performance?

Or get X99 for a decent amount less and overclock that...
