Easily done if the clocks are kept very low.

I'm curious, what would you guys expect an i7 - 6 core part to be priced at? What would you expect a 4 core to be priced at?

I hope they will be priced as mainstream if they go mainstream. 400-500 euros is not a mainstream price. They should be priced at 300-350 euros if they are to be called mainstream. But this is Intel so we don't know what excuse they will find to price them high again.

The codenames are a little confusing to me. I understand Skylake, Kaby Lake, Coffee Lake, and somewhat Cannonlake (they're all the same architecture) but why do they continue using -lake suffixes after Cannonlake?

Your wrong on the gpu part. Lookup/remember how much a 7900gt cost. Even when i go back and look at 470/570/670, compared to MSRP of the gtx1070 (supply and demand prices are always higher,so i don't compare those).

Fingers crossed i5's in laptops now get quads when i7's get 6.
It even amazes me today how crap some laptops are the second you start multitasking, unresponsive, ...

Not sure what games you're playing, but the stuff im running (incl os/wifi/dedicated soundcard) produces between 30-50% cpu load spread over all 8 "cores" on my 3770.
