Intel Announces Retirement of Kaby Lake-X Processor: Only 10 Months

During the 2017 Taipei Computer Show, Intel introduced a new generation of enthusiast Core X processors, which are divided into Kaby Lake-X and SkyLake-X families, sharing LGA 2066 interface and X299 motherboard.

However, frankly speaking, there are only two Kaby Lake-X families, i5-7640X and i7-7740X, compared to the general version of i7-7700K and i5-7600K.

In stark contrast to the physical Skylake-X, it's pretty awkward.

This is not, the Dutch website tweakers found that Intel has issued a product change statement. Announced that Kaby Lake-X and the two brothers entered the retirement class 'EOL'.

As for the time node, orders will no longer be accepted after November 30, 2018, and shipment will cease on May 31, 2019.

At first glance, Kaby Lake-X only maintained a 10-month lifetime in the market, starting at $7 for $7, $5 for $242.
