Detail specs for Kaby Lake chipsets

[NumLock21]

Details of Intel's 200 series chipset to go along with KabyLake has been revealed. Not too much has changed comparing to the 100 series for SkyLake. One unique feature found on the 200 series is support for Intel Optane technology. Other than that, the newer chipsets has a updated Intel Rapid Storage Technology, up to 3x M.2, and additional HSIO lanes, which then gives a slight increase to the amount of PCIe lanes available to the end user. Release date for the new chipset is said to be around early January.

Waiting for an i7 7700k on a z770 chipset motherboard with 77GB of ddr7 ram and pair it with AMD r7 770

 

Edit: don't hit funny, have respect and leave it at 7

Edit2: stop hitting agree when it reaches 7 and move on to thumbs up

Edit3: Well I have no idea what to do when we reach 7 informative

Edit4: Now we are at 8. Well rip. Thanks everyone, it was good one

[SCHISCHKA]

good to see more lanes as drives move to that format

Any info on Business chipset btw

Well, I mean, what is Intel supposed to throw on a chipset to make it impressive? More than 18 SATA ports?!

more pcie lanes, 16 for the slots and 8 for the other stuff is not enough imo if you want to run 2 GPUs + some other pcie stuff

That's why thechipset has additional 24 pcie 3.0 lanes.

I want dual cpu on the consumer market goddamnit , I want ALL THE THREADS

"CPU PCIe configuration" is still 16 lanes, I'm assuming the additional 24 is for SATA, m.2 and other stuff

Indeed it is. I'm not sure what you mean by "other stuff". You should have enough lanes for pretty much every scenario.

XFire/SLI with 8 lanes vs. 16 is a negligible 1-2 fps difference, less than 1fps on 4K.

enough lanes to support dual M.2 NVMe and 8x + 8x CF/SLI and a 2x or 4x PCIe AIB of sorts?
2-4 native USB 3.1 ports?
i mean, look at ZEN, it will support 2 USB 3.1 ports natively. It's not like Intel is in any way unable to match that. So Intel is just being "cheap".
 

Is it so much to ask for 28 lanes as "basic" Z270 and rather get 40 lanes or more on X99?

 

We are, by all means, talking about a "Z" board. If prices increases due to features, in a board series that is already aimed towards "maximum features and overclocking", then who cares? 5-10$ more for a better base feature set is worth it.

Uh, it does exactly that.

 

Intel is doing 4 native.

 

Yes! 28 is insane to be just on the chipset with another 16 off the CPU. There's no room for HEDT at that point!

Given the lane count of that chart, i am more inclined to believe they are talking physical electrical connections, not CPU lanes.

Intel chipsets havent really had that many lanes, as there has only been a 4x lane going to and from the CPU and chipset.

Intel's disappointed every gen after Ivy.

 

Thanks to AMD not providing any competition for a long time, Intel were tempted to display just "how slow can you go", and the results have put them permanently on my blacklist. If AMD goes bankrupt I guess I'm becoming a monk when my computer dies.

Well, from what we know so far Intel has done nothing to make going Kaby Lake compelling over a potentially cheaper Skylake.

It's 8x now,

The higher lane count for having multiple M.2 or an M.2 and a sound card or 10Gb ethernet card is a decent upgrade, not to mention the higher clocks on the chips.

You're a lying sack of crap and you know it. You would have nothing good to say about Intel even if it cured cancer.

Intel is much more dedicated on improving their iGpus  then giving better CPU  performance

Hard to improve when your instructions already only take 1 cycle a piece and the only way to make it faster is get data and instructions to the CPU core faster than before. The problem is old software built on SISD x86 and not taking any advantage of MMX, SSE1/2/3/4, SSSE3, AVX1/2, or FMA.
