 The new socket type supports no latches and hence has a different cooler support mechanism. The coolers are screwed on top of the socket. The coolers are generally passive heatsinks that are cooled off by air flow in server rooms. These coolers are rated to dissipate more than 200W of heat. The socket will only be available on the server front so gaming folks will have to wait for Skylake-X series to hit the market. The new Skylake-X series will also feature a new socket, known as LGA 2066. This platform will support chips with up to 10 cores. More details on Skylake-X and Kaby Lake-X processors can be found here. So a new socket for enthusiast class boards again so lets have a look at one here soon and then get ready for socket LGA 2076 in 2020 (Ice Lake-X) http://wccftech.com/intel...ke-ex-knights-landing/

Not a huge fan of Intel's constant socket changing. At least they've been OK about keeping the heatsink mounts similar.

That socket is ridiculously HUGE. With that said I want one for some strange reason.

Huge isn't the word. What kind of heat is this thing gonna generate? Put a couple of water pumps on it. One to cool and one for the sauna.

Definitely did. Let's hope there was more than enough air gap there to not cause a problem. And I wonder if EK will be looking into a water block for these. It will be inevitable that some people will want to use these for DC or something other than server duty that will need to be quieter than a server.

I would hate to see how much heat that CPU puts off. Remember, the Heatsink is rated for OVER 200W of heat.

Intel has a tick-tock type of processor release. One year they will release a new chipset, socket, and processor. The following year they release updated processors for that chipset. Then the year after a new chipset, socket, and processor. The pins have to change to match possible new functionalities.
