It will be interesting later as AMD grabbed X399 for their ThreadBuster chipset.

Will it be a case of 80486 naming all over again? Will it force Intel to skip x399 or face confusion?

My thoughts exactly, it use to be AMD and Nvidia switching back and forth with numbers. Now its AMD and Intel that are going to start confusing people with numbers.

Back then, when you grabbed a 80486 (486) from any vendor producing them, they pretty much worked the same and dropped into the same socket. Now... well... current AMD X399 would have very little in common with any potential future Intel X399 that may or may not have that name.

I dont think Intel cares about AMD. They aren't in the least bit worried.
