But effectively your argument remains "true", only that until lately nobody needed more than 4 CPU cores, and those people got an AMD CPU or like you mentioned, a Xeon.
Even today I'm not sure I need my 6 cores tbh.
Let's say X99 chipset, because actually it was Haswell-E: vbetts

From what I read from that topic, a lot of folks are saying they have the same amount of pins but 300 series 1151 motherboards have a different pin out for power? A number of them are saying that the 8700k for example wouldn't have enough power available on a 100/200 series board. Can anyone confirm this?

If at the end only i3's can work on older chipset would have been a nice update for the 7xxx and 6xxx series pentium and i3 users . Why people act like only the 7700 and 7600 exists? 😛

i suspect the main obstacle for 6core coffee lake is the me firmware , as the the 4 core "coffelake" cpus dont appear to be anything more than newer revision kabylake chips, they dont use the same die as the 6 core chips.

Interesting...so does this mean it's possible to get a 8600k/8700k working on my Asus Z170-A?
Edit: nevermind.. Helps to read before posting I guess.

if in the future Intel ever did another 4c/8t it would be called i3
