This will be a very interesting announcement. Without new hardware that would make it worthwhile for Nvidia to invest in drivers for their 10 series cards and if Apple does not provide any support for AMD 4 series cards then this wonderful, little Hackintosh community will be scrambling and scrounging for 9 series Nvidia and R9 series AMD cards for the foreseeable future. It's going to be sad and bleak running only from internal graphics. A watershed event, for sure.

This is what I hope to see- with NVIDIA Pascal!

Skylake MacBooks?

Kaby Lake would be the chip if they will support T.Bolt 3 and 4K at 60Hz. Then you can simply
connect to an Apple display or other 4K/5K display with your 13 inch or 15 inch MacBook.

There are quite a few Kaby Lake Windows laptops already available. It would be a complete surprise
to me if they went with Skylake in the new Macbooks. Wouldn't make much sense to go with the older
processor at this point in time.

There have been some speculations that the reason for this ridiculous gap between Mac models is because Apple has been gearing up for switching from Intel-architecture CPU to ARM-architecture CPU. I doubt it'll happen, but Apple has surprised us in that regard before. I really hope not, since that'll effectively kill the hackintosh.
