The problem with that 6800K is even though it's $449, you still don't get 40 full PCIE lanes. You have to dig deeper until your pocket have holes in them for that 6850K to be able to get it. $617 for optimum Xfire/SLI at 16x/16x? No thanks.

First reply was to a comment on which CPU was favourited in a certain bench, second post by myself was just announcing more CPU's being released that have yet to be mentioned. Problem?

Thank you for clarifying your double posts. As far as a problem with the second post...not so much a problem as a lack of relevance? What do they have to do with broadwell-e desktop platform?

Now, as far as the 6700K being favoured...Intel octo's reign supreme in FS scoring. ;)

Weird the #1 guy has an octo ehh?? http://hwbot.org/submission/3051523_kingpin_3dmark___fire_strike_geforce_gtx_980_ti_27861_marks

and #2-10... I can keep going....

Its all about 'dat Physics test here bub. 6700K doesn't hold a candle to a 5960X. So while the 6700K may be used more, it is not because its the better scoring processor, but the more affordable one compared to the $1000 octo core. ;)
