not posting this in news because frankly I have no clue what this means that’s for someone else to do.

 

but what does this mean? Does this mean the new cores rumoured out 1st August aren’t coming? :((

Hey there, it's now believed that particular roadmap is out of date and that i9-9900k is indeed shipping this year.

It says lga1151 v2 socket, is that the same motherboards as the current 8 gen??

[The Torrent]

So should I not build my pc I was gonna build? Should I wait for 9 gen? And which motherboards will they use?

Are these graphics made up by Intel, or does the leaker make it so we understand better?

The graph is released by xfastest a sketchy Chinese company. They are basically guessing just like us so I doubt it’s too reliable.

No, it means that Intel's marketing department is deliberately leaking slightly confusing data simply to drum up hype over the new CPUs. What started as an offense punishable by law due to people breaking NDAs has turned into a full-blown marketing method used by literally all companies at some point during their product release cycle. And of course, you'd never get Intel to confirm or deny this, since 1) they don't want people to know for a fact that they're leaking the information on purpose, and 2) it would confirm which leaked data is factually correct, giving AMD a truthful tip-off to their real roadmap.

 

Full disclosure: I'm not a conspiracy theorist by any means, but I do work in marketing and this is exactly how you drum up free hype.
