Intel Retires Kaby Lake-X-processors After launching them just 10 months ago

Intel will be retiring their Kaby Lake-X-processors, the i5-7640X and i7-7740X where the outsiders on the X299 platform. That means that ten months after introducing them, both quad-core processors have reached its end of life.

The EOL status notification for Kaby Lake-X is mentioned in Intel's product change notification, report our Dutch colleagues from tweakers. The end of life status of both boxed and tray versions of Kaby Lake-X is reached on May 7th. Suppliers can order copies up to 30 November this year. After that, orders can no longer be created, canceled and returned.

Intel announced the Kaby Lake-X processors last Summer alongside Skylake X models for the X299 platform. The i7-7740X and i5-7640X were a little weird, as in fact they are lga2066 variants of lga1151 processors such as the i7-7700K.

Huh. It's almost as though Intel had no way to have foreseen how stupid these products were to begin with.

I still cannot believe Kaby Lake-X was actually a thing (seemed like a bad joke when it was announced, and still feels like a joke today). Intel's explanation was also so bizarre (that these chips are a gateway to the HEDT platform) that I doubt even hardcore Intel fans believed them. I guess the joke's run its course?
