Sooooo... I was just finishing a part list and getting my orders compiled for a new system and I find out that the new 8th Generation of Intel's iCore line is dropping in October. Naturally, I slammed the brakes on my orders in hopes that perhaps these will be supported. And even if not, they'll probably drive a small price drop in the Sky Lake generation.
MSI already announced a couple (z370's) boards as well. So I know I'll be waiting two weeks and seeing what shakes out.
Any educated guesses on this news and/or support?
Here's some links and a breakdown.
