I wonder when Omnipath will hit Intels non HEDT platforms. Wouldn't hurt but I am sure it will cost quite a bit.

"Sure enough, Noctua’s press release claimed that the new Basin Falls X299 platform will employ the LGA 2066 socket for Skylake-X and Kaby Lake-X. The naming scheme also marks another departure for Intel, this time from the “E” branding typically associated with its HEDT processors.

So glad they've cleared out the names. They always had me a bit confused!
