Two days, two leaks on an upcoming Intel platform (the accelerated release dates gods are working hard with the blue giant, it would seem.) Now, it's Intel's own i7-7740K, a Kaby Lake-X HEDT processor that packs 4 cores and 8 threads, which is interesting when one considers that AMD's latest mainstream processors, Ryzen, already pack double the cores and threads in a non-HEDT platform. Interesting things about the Kaby Lake-X processors is that they are rumored to carry 16x PCIe 3.0 lane from the CPU (which can be configured as a singularly populated 16x or as a triple-populated 1x @ 8x and 2x @ 4x PCIe ports. Since these parts are reported as being based of on consumer, LGA-1151 Kaby Lake processors, it would seem these eschew Intel's integrated graphics, thus saving die space. And these do seem to deliver a quad-channel memory controller as well, though we've seen with Ryzen R7 reviews how much of a difference that makes for some of the use cases.

Leaks came from the SiSoft Sandra Benchmark, again, which shows the Intel Core i7-7740K running at 4.2GHz base and 4.5GHz Turbo clocks. The X-series family of processors is expected to have a wide range of various core-configurations from 4, 6, 8, 10 and 12-core processors, on the new X299 platform. At the same time, Intel will also have a Skylake-X CPU, expected to be for the top-end 12-core/24-thread line with 44 lanes of PCIe Gen 3.
