| Processor | Cores/threads | Clock frequency | L3-cache | Socket |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Intel Core i7-6950X | 10/20 | 3GHz | 25MB | LGA2011-v3 |
| Intel Core i7-6900K | 8/16 | 3,3GHz | 20MB | LGA2011-v3 |
| Intel Core i7-6850K | 6/12 | 3,6GHz | 15MB | LGA2011-v3 |
| Intel Core i7-6800K | 6/12 | 3,4GHz | 15MB | LGA2011-v3 |
As stated, four models will be released, the i7-6950X, i7-6900K, i7-6850K and i7- 6800K. That Core i7-6950X thus is the flagship CPU. X is Extreme with totally unlocked multipliers and voltages, the K models are more or less the same with a slightly lower voltage ceiling. All models will get some Turbo (dynamic clock frequency) allowance as well. To date it is unknown when the new processors will be released.

Finally some info starts to surface. The question is whether the plan still remains:
Broadwell-E Q1-2016 (X99)
Skylake-E Q3-2016 (new chipset?)
