Yesterday's "Chinese revelations" about Intel 's plans focused on discussing how deceptive the company's promise to release Kaby Lake's successors in LGA 1151 design could be. However, these slides at the same time allowed us to make sure that the Intel X299 and the Socket 2066 platform up to the middle 2018 there will be no successors, and this is at least.
Does this mean that subsequent Intel processors of this price category will be able to work on existing motherboards with a LGA 2066 connector?
Colleagues from the site Bits & Chips say that it's not worth counting on, and the only likely candidates for compatibility with the Socket 2066 is the current revision are the processors Coffee Lake-X. Their successors named Cannon Lake-X with socket Socket 2066 of the current revision will not be compatible. Presumably, the conventions for generations Intel processors are hypothetical, since they have not been publicly mentioned in the official plans of the company.
By the way, some Chinese sources specify that the 18-core Core i9-7980XE processor will be presented on October 18 this year. Related Products :
