I'm guessing the only benefit of this is using registered RAM. Z170 should support the Xeons.

It could support, but it doesn't.

You've always been able to use previous gen Xeons in the equivalent Z chipset boards. Asus and Asrock generally have great support.

all mother board support BUT doesn't feature what make the difference beween a Core and a Xeon processor (sometime it is few and sometime it is huge improvement depend on your wallet lol). It's a niche segment but yes you can play with pro material 🙂 ... but i don't know if it will sell much (processor, and ram are lot more expensive... my work PC cost more tan my jaguar 🙁 ok i haven't paid it, but it hurt... )

I know, but this time it won't happen most probably http:// wccftech. com /intel-skylake-xeon-e31200-v5-greenlow-family-launched-workstation-chips-incompatible-100series-desktop-chipsets/

Oh well, blame Intel. My 6-core X58 Xeon (W3680) is STILL faster (at 4GHz) than OCed quad cores in terms of compute performance. I see no reason to upgrade for the forseeable future.

now maker starting using xeon for gaming platform ? well its not new things but kinda rare they promoting it as gaming mobo rather workstation mobo wonder if there any relation to BCLK OC for skylake cpu the cpu prices seems not much different from consumer line though (i might wrong) if i had to choose between Z170 and C232, i might prefer C232 for better stability not sure if it have better performance though

People were buying Xenon 1231's instead of 4790's so Intel is now locking low level Xenon's out. For example E3 1245 is the same processor as a i5 6600K, yet it supports HT and has an extra 2MB cache. Motherboard manufacturers are building stuff like this in order to fill that void My question is, why would they use the C232 instead of the C236? 8 extra PCI-E lanes is like nothing for people buying a board like this. The 236 supports 20 extra lanes.

+1 on this. Using the C232 makes no sense to me. The C236 is the enterprise equivalent of the Z170, but adds ECC UDIMM support and of course SkyLake based Xeon support.
