6 cores? intel thinks it is 2016?
Well to be fair here, even though I do understand what you mean, you don't really need more than 6 cores.

lol more like 2008 !
I had a couple of Westmere Xeons with 6 cores ffs. I had an 8 core Ivy and now have a 10 and 14c BE.
And they are celebrating 6 cores? lmfao. "So tonight I'm gonna party like it's 1999" comes to mind
And yeah, most enterprise software is massively threaded because servers run massively cored CPUs with low clock speeds. So you will really be missing a trick.

Oh, thought it was for mainstream users and not enterprises lol.
Well that's a blanket statement if I ever saw one. Not all workloads need 10+ cores and many AEC software would benefit from these new CPUs....for the companies not willing to run an 8700k that is.
