Desparate move, intel...

Like someone already said, a panic reaction.

Indeed,really nasty,Overclocked Skylake(aka Kaby Lake) with no improvements.
Amd will push Ryzen with 12-16 cores/24-32 threads.

Well, I like this release.. I went with the 7700k as for pure gaming I didnt need more cores - but I needed fast cores. And if I could chose the same cpu, just with quad core memory - then I'd likely get that one..
The 7740k naming also implies that this is simply a slightly modified 7700k - so core-performance would be expected to stay the same.
Next upgrade I'd like to see is 4.5 ghz boost cpu's with more Pci lanes 🙂

This has to be one of the most pointless cpus i´ve ever seen in my life...

Intel has entire lineups of cpu's that have been pointless

The most pointless was 7350k at €200 (in my country)
It seems we gonna have a new king of pointless.

Why is everyone upset about this? What did Intel do wrong this time? Not allowed to do entry level HEDT processors?

@Hilbert : Wheres this Quad channel memory info coming from ?
I can't see it on the screen caps, and even Intel themselves have shown that it should be a dual channel memory configuration for the KabyLake-X CPU.
If they made a new chip, they would add PCIe lanes also, it would be stupid not to on this platform.

Any news about i5 7640k?
