Unannounced Intel Core i7 8086K Spotted
Yes, you read that right, a nostalgic sounding 8086 processor. So then, Intel might be planning a special processor to be released with the 40th anniversary of the 8086 processor?
The processor would/could be in testing stages at Intel, however, in a Chinese forum someone released information and screenshots on it, as Wccftech noted. The Core i7 8086K would be a respin of Coffee Lake S and would get a vase clock of 4.0GHz, however, it would get a boost to 5.1GHz. Everything about Intel's Turbos is vague as they do not release info about it anymore, we I can only assume that 5.1 GHz is a single thread and core boost and 4.4 for the all-core boost.
It, however, would effectively make the proc fast than a Core i7 8700K. The 8086K would be the same six cores part with the same TDP of 95W. This remains to be a rumor though, Intel has not published anything about it. It would not be the first-anniversary processor Intel release, remember the Pentium 20th Anniversary G3258 Processor?
8086K ... right, going to the attic now, gotta find me an MS-DOS floppy disk :-) Oh and keep in mind, although it's a bunch of them (screenshots) they could very likely be fake.

Hard to believe the 8086 was released on my birthday. That thing's ancient.

It's for LGA 1151-2. Would work not only with Z390, but also with Z370, H370 and B360 motherboards.
Wait: Z370? A release without a new chipset?!?!? This must be FAKE NEWS!

It will have to have a new motherboard with an extra socket for adding a Math Co-Processor.
And in 200 Years we will celebrate the 80286

Jokes on you. Its going to be an actual 8086 CPU. Cant sue for false advertising.
Edit: In all seriousness Im guessing this is going to be something like a Celeron with missing cache but high clocks?
I do not think intel would sell singe cache-less CPU within i7 line. Today, main difference between i, Pentium is cache configuration. And then core count.
