I bet the 8 core CFL CPU will sell like hotcakes.
Too little too late with 10nm or 7nm right around the corner

Oh definitely. As long as they have a compelling product, it will sell.Me thinks you are falling into the trap of thinking everyone out there is like those of us on this forum. The Intel name alone and the fact it's a new product for them will result in sales they can barely keep up with.
I wonder what clocks will be @ 95W??Me thinks you are falling into the trap of thinking everyone out there is like those of us on this forum. The Intel name alone and the fact it's a new product for them will result in sales they can barely keep up with.

It has to be higher than 95W for decent clocks methinks, or they better start soldering them again...
Could look at ARK and see what 8c/16t Xeons list for wattages. I know 85W Xeons run at 2.2 / 2.4 Ghz.
Given that the 8c/16t The Ryzen 2700 runs at 3.2 Ghz with a 65W TDP. I don't think too many people will happy with an 8 core/16 thread CFL CPU with lower clock speeds and higher wattage.

Intel need to best Zen+ methinks, at least at turbo frequencies. I think socket 370 is limited to 95 watts. So, that'll be a problem on 14nm++.
AMD Z490??? The trolling continues. Interesting. I wonder what they have planned?
Embarrassing stuff from AMD once again. Looks like they don't have much faith with a unique branding. So Intel probably won't continue with Z490 for Icelake.

8700k overclocks to 5 ghz, so the 8 core may approach that. Can't imagine that it won't overclock higher than zen+ which struggles to reach 4.1/4.2 all core. Bigger question to me is the price. Will they price it like current 8700k/2700 and lower other prices, or will it be 400.00 plus.Intel need to best Zen+ methinks, at least at turbo frequencies.

Speaking for myself, I don't want a 125W CPU.Intel would need to up the tdp to get a high frequency 8 core cpu. Despite being only 14nm it would perform well though, look at the 8700k compared to the 2600x.
Improve the tim, up the tdp to 125w, and you can probably get an 8 core at around 4.5 ghz imo.

Yeah TDP will have to be increased, 125W sounds about right based on a 95W 8700K.Intel would need to up the tdp to get a high frequency 8 core cpu. Despite being only 14nm it would perform well though, look at the 8700k compared to the 2600x.

That is more like z370 MBs must support 95 watt TDP at minimum. I am sure most of them support much more power than that, and are a system flash update away from officially supporting higher TDP processors.
