Skylake-e

Skylake will be succeeded by Kaby Lake, there won't be a Skylake-E as far as I can tell. Kaby Lake is supposed to be compatible with 1151 boards but if that will just require a BIOS upgrade like current 2011-v3 to Broadwell-E is still unknown.

Broadwell/Skylake-E are the x99 enthusiast grade chips. Successors to 5820k/5830k/5960x.

Tip to those that are new on LTT forum- quote a post so that the person you are quoting gets a notification, otherwise they'll have no idea that you did. You can also use a tag such as @Ryoutarou97 (replace my username with anyone's. You should get a dropdown after you type the "@")to send a notification, but quoting is preferable.

 

Feel free to PM me about absolutely anything be it tech, math, literature, etc. I'll try my best to help. I'm currently looking for a cheap used build for around $25 to set up as a home server if anyone is selling.

 

If you are a native speaker please use proper English if you can. Punctuation, capitalization, and spelling are as important to making your message readable as proper night theme formatting is.

 

My build is fully operational, but won't be posted until after I get a GPU in it and the case arted up.

Skylake-E is the successor to X99's Broadwell-E. It will need a new socket and a new chipset. I've read it will have 6-channel DDR4 and their Xeons will feature Intel's Omni-Path architecture.
