I'm glad that last year I decided to skip 8700k and stick with my 2600k. Soon it'll be time for real upgrade.

Really looking forward to see bench for this i9. It looks like a beast.
I'm aware that AMD has really been playing in Intel's flower-beds for a while, but I can't bring myself into buying AMD ever. 🙁

How about waiting for actual release and benchmarks?
Sure, maybe it can turbo to 5Ghz on a single core, but it might as well throttle like crazy when all cores are loaded and not be any faster than 2700K.
... or it might be a miracle CPU.
... or it might cost so much that the difference in price is not worth it.
In the mean time, AMD is happily selling Ryzen 2700(x)... (not sure how much profit they're making on it, probably not a lot)

5GHz on 1 core is not true "5GHz" in my opinion (either all cores or none) and is false advertisement if anything.
I'm also pointing my fingers at AMD (take a quick look at Ryzen) both companies should stop their marketing schemes.

So yet another release on the 1151 platform and nothing for 2066? Or even a X399 successor in 2018?

You won't get all cores at 5GHz on Aircooling, i can guarantee that.
Just taking Intels 28c@5GHz Demo into account, it was using over 1200W cooling, so I'd expect about 250W at 5GHz on all cores for the 9900K.

We should see actual numbers before calling our price and performance. $450 for high-end i9 CPU doesn't sound right, but I am more than happy to be wrong.
Also 30% faster cause of 2 additional CPU? Yeah. that sounds about right, so probably not any noticeable IPC improvement. How games suppose to benefit from it?
Intel just going in loops with sidegrading on same arc again, again and again. Another CPU, another socket, yet side-grade performance, sometimes more cores for $$$ obviously.
It could be good investment for future, but so probably gonna be Zen2 and for lesser price.
Being aimed to launch before Zen2, I guess they just try to sell as much as they can, before AMD brings 7nm on table.
