Intel Skylake-X series CPU Photo Surfaces

Intel Skylake-X series CPU Photo Surfaces

Today what is claimed to be an Intel Skylake-X processor was pictured, showcasing a huge CPU size and some impressive leaked specifications. The processor would run on a new socket, LGA 2066 CPU socket (same as Xeon) and this socket will be Intel's largest socket to date, supporting up to 44 total PCIe 3.0 lanes and support DDR4-2666 MH memory. 

Let me just state first that this might as well be the Xeon part ? Anyway, the Intel Skylake-X CPU has been pictured and leaked through Asia based benchlife, showcasing a very large CPU size, there are some leaked specifications. 
  

 
LGA 2066 and Skylake-X has not been confirmed, it however is rumored that Skylake X could get 10 total CPU cores and have a TDP of up to 140W with a stronger DDR4 memory controller, supporting faster DDR4-2666MHz memory. As you can see the leaked sample shows a base clock of 2.40 GHz, add to that some turbos to 500 MHz and we are looking at roughly 3.0 GHz for the fastest core.

Skylake-X would actually include six, eight and ten core CPUs and thus follow Broadwell-E . Under the name Kaby Lake-X there could also will be quad-cores for socket 2066, with fewer PCI Express lanes and only two memory channels. Also for Kaby Lake-X Turbo Boost 3.0 is not supported. There will also be a new chipset which includes ten integrated USB 3.0 ports and eight SATA600 ports. It is still unclear whether USB 3.1 will also be part of the chipset. 

Skylake-X would arrive at the earliest in the summer or maybe even winter of 2017.

now i dont understand the reason for the big cpu ...2-8 cores are done on a smaller die
anyone know?

Could be the 10 core :)

So we're not looking at the hexa/octa channel 3500 pin monster socket that's also been floating around, damn!

Can't really see skylake-x as being a worthy upgrade. Might as well wait for kabylake-x


isnt the rumor (also as in the article) said skylake-x will release with kabylake-x
skylake-x will have 6~10cores while kabylake-x 4cores
both with same socket 2066

this confusing for most of us, with the release pattern which intel never did before

i cant give exact answer but there are numerous reasons i guess...
the simplest one maybe because the socket 2066, even so the die small, they need to package it in bigger size solely for the socket size/pins


So we're not looking at the hexa/octa channel 3500 pin monster socket that's also been floating around, damn!

that 3500 pin is for skylake/cannonlake-EP (purley platform), basically its server / xeons socket
its just on early rumor its reported as skylake X
