And still no AVX. I guess Intel is waiting for 2018 to have it in every CPU to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the announcement of the ISA extension
With all of the Kaby Lake laptops showing up with U-series CPUs, combined with the fact that Intel seems to want to kill off Atom, combined with the fact that KBL desktop Pentium CPUs, at least one of them, have HyperThreading - will there be a KBL U-series Pentium, with HT? In an inexpensive low-end laptop?
Edit: Don't know about KBL U Pentiums, but this laptop looks sweet for a budget laptop:

That would be the stupidest move from Intel since it would kill for real the names of Celeron and Pentium... if Netburst wasn't enough for Pentium...Intel doesn't want to kill Atom, it's the opposite. They are moving as much of the Pentium/Celeron parts to Atom as possible, since those products have better cost structure than Core chips.
I mean, "would be" is the stupid part here, since Intel been doing that last few gens already. All them N prefix Pentiums, you know.That would be the stupidest move from Intel since it would kill for real the names of Celeron and Pentium... if Netburst wasn't enough for Pentium...

Got my new stuff in today - i7 6700k, Asus Z170s Sabertooth, and Crucial Ballistix DDR4 2400.
Just got done putting it all together and it works perfectly so far no problems at all. So now I'm installing O/S's Windows 10 and hopefully Ubuntu 16.10 after thats finished.Anyways I just wanted to make sure I will be able drop in a 7700k with just a bios update when released is this correct? Because now I cant seem to find anything saying this motherboard is going to be compatible come Kabylake time and I really dont want to part with this motherboard cause I am really liking it alot so far.
“Am surprised with how well the i3 performs compared to the 6700k. In most games i hardly notice a difference. Much much higher average than my previous Phenom II x4 940. In really CPU bound games like City Skylines there is a massive drop compared to the 6700k as the extra core/threads really help. One thing to note is when overclocking,Ii could only get a stable 4.6ghz by pushing the CPU to a 1.52vcore which is the limit of the Asrock board. So sadly I will not be able to get any higher but 1.52v is already waaay more voltage than anyone realistically should push through the core.”
I'm planning to do the same. However, after researching a bit, I've been told that advertised XMP profiles are pretty much hit or miss and will not work 100% of the time. Do you think it's worth the risk paying the hefty premium of DDR4 4000?It was on sale at the time and I couldn't pass it up besides I will probably go DDR4 4000 when Kaby 7700k Hits and bypass 3200 all together.
Depends on the premium: if it gets close to $100, then you might as well buy slower RAM + CPU upgrade (i5 to i7, mainstream to HEDT). Perf/dollar will be greater.Do you think it's worth the risk paying the hefty premium of DDR4 4000?
Yeah, depends on premium. If it's only a few bucks (to me, $20 is a "few bucks") over 3000/3200, then sure. More than that? Personally, I wouldn't bother. Skylake scales with memory pretty well, but to a point. I worry about the CPU's memory-controller stability at extreme frequencies like DDR4-4000. 3000/3200 is probably a reasonable compromise, I think.Do you think it's worth the risk paying the hefty premium of DDR4 4000?

Google Translate said:To commemorate the 20th anniversary of the previous Intel Pentium, Pentium not locked will launch a special edition G3258, for overclocking bring a little new life, and now, according to disclose celebrities, Intel also introduced the Core i3 processor is not locked, it may be in the new generation Kaby Lake above.
But on Fengyun K Edition Core i3 processor is not locked and no other information, only know the default clock will reach 4.2GHz, do not know because Kaby Lake is not much of a surprise launch sales strategy?After all, Kaby Lake is only Skylake the clock upgrade version, 200 series chipsets are no bright spots.
Big news guys, after the Pentium Anniversary Edition, Intel is now planning an unlocked Core i3! It belongs to the Kaby Lase-S family and it's clocked at 4.2 GHz.

Yes, we already know about the 4.0ghz i3-7300, so it would then be a 4.2ghz i3-7300K I guess? Which then overclocks a little?Hm,I don't know,easy OC on sky was ~4,4Ghz logic dictates that for kaby it will be +200Mhz making it 4,6Ghz,doesn't seem to be worth the extra cost and hassle if it's gonna be 4,2 to start with.
I know there are reports of ~5Ghz on air for kaby but I doubt that's gonna be easily achievable on every chip, especially if we are talking budged builds.
