I am not trying to be an ass here, but simply trying to understand those decisions made by Intel.

I you were the FUD, I wouldn't think much about your information. But you present yourself as someone in the know, and I accept you as such, or else I wouldn't take your info seriously at all.

If you can't provide more than this, I accept that and thank you for your infos so far! I don't believe you lie, but I think you are not giving the complete picture here (NDA?).

But of course, I can be stupid, and let us then just leave it at that





A company wouldn't be interessted in the enthusiast platforms, just like they aren't in the current XE models and X motherboards.
To be fair to Blauhung, he works for Intel and I'm sure there's things he's not allowed to say and I respect that.
On the other hand he's many times filled out what was speculation with facts and is a great asset to this forum.
One more thing;
I've gotten to know him a bit as he's helping on the WCG team and what I've seen is a decent guy who is here like the rest of us because he enjoys the hobby. I think this adds up to a win-win for everyone.
