It says at the bottom right of the chart "Entry is considered as Intel Celeron and Pentium brands". Either way, it'd be terribly misleading if what you are suggesting is true. Value is i3 I think.
No, I am saying its you who cant read the slide. It specifc mention its based on the Entry cost segment. While core based Pentiums and Celerons are mainly sold in the Value segment.
I have also included VMs in-house servers where you cant use could applications. For a typical desktop office you dont need Core i3/5, even if you run office locally on your desktop the latest ATOM/Kabini systems are more than enough for typical workloads.

Atom and Kabini isnt enough, its not even remotely close to being enough.
So far the early SKUs leak was spot on. I think it's relevant to this thread:
Estimated DDR4 price reduction over time:
Xeon E5-1200 v5 series will be released in the second half of 2015. The Xeons will be a part of new Greenlow platform, that will utilize C230 series chipsets. The first to launch will be mainstream E3-1200 v5 SKUs in LGA package, compatible with socket 1151. They will come with up to 4 CPU cores, Hyper-threading technology, and up to GT2 graphics. Furthermore, they are going to work with DDR3L and DDR4 memory, and have the maximum amount of supported RAM increased to 64 MB.
At the end of 2015 or at the beginning of 2016, Intel will introduce BGA versions of Xeon E3-1200 v5 chips with Premium graphics, featuring GT4 GPU and 128 MB eDRAM. The processors will have 4 CPU cores, and support only DDR4 memory.
So only 95W TDP Skylake SKUs will be available in 2015 ??
You mean only Quad Core desktop? No, the U and Y models will be released at the end of the year.
So is there going to be any thing more then just 4c/8t on this socket?
So is there going to be any thing more then just 4c/8t on this socket? Will there be an upgrade path on this socket by next year for maybe 6c/12t or 8c/16t? I dont want to buy into another dead end socket but I need a upgrade badly. Going from a AMD X4 760K@5.GHz to hopefully a Intel i7 6700k and would like to overclock it to 4.5Ghz.
I really dont care about playing games on the PC all that much and need the raw processing power to encode/convert audio and video for the home media server.
So would this be a viable option or would I be wasting my time and money?
Why not just buy a 5820K if 6C/12T or more is what you're looking for?
Because 5820K is not Skylake ??
Because 5820K is not Skylake ??
6C/12T Skylake is a long, long way away and I get the impression that the poster needs an upgrade "badly."
If his workloads scale well with more cores, I'd say a 5820K is the way to go -- forget the 6700K.
and a 4C8T skylake will match/surpass a 5820K in most but the heaviest parallel workloads
Or Cinebench the only Skylake CPU benchmark we have seenLike video encoding?
Why not go 5820K??Not that I woulnt love to, but because I am not a rich guy.
$400.00 for just the cpu and another $300.00 for a mobo and $250-$500 for DDR4. Damn it thats just to much money these days. I could maybe do Skylake-K if the cpu is $250-$300,mobo $100-$200 and the cheapest DDR4 at that time. Hoping they drop the Price on DDR4 dramatically.
Does anyone know if Xeon E3 v5 will support AVX-512? Too much contradicting info.
