Great post and info from Delphius about Kabylake, but I have a question that you may or may not be able to answer.So far, I am loving it for audio production purposes. I haven't even overclocked it yet, and everything is running buttery smooth. I have plans to also use it for photo / video as well.
So far, I haven't had the chance to try out the TB3 but I wouldn't mind putting this on the list of things to do soon. The expansion card isn't too expensive, and it would be nice to have even for the Frewire support. The only problem is I don't have any TB3 peripherals to test. But, for the sake of testing purposes I'm sure I could borrow something from a friend. It would be nice to know if it is an option or not in the future.
First, I have a fully working Hack with a locked Skylake CPU at the moment but have just bought a Kabylake i5 7600 unlocked and intend to use that from now on, BUT,
is it possible to spoof the CPU with 0x0506E3 on my existing system, shut down, switch chips and then reboot, or am I being a total idiot and that it will nor work.
Just a thought, my MB is a Gigabyte Z170 but has the latest firmware to enable Kaby support.
