There is an extensive leak on the web that exposes new desktop processors and Series 400 chipsets from Intel, it involves the next-gen processor line and their respective LGA1200 socket based chipsets.
So then, the leak pretty much confirms that the current chipsets will not be compatible with Intel's next-gen processors. There is a pin count change and that this, of course, requires a new processor socket; meet socket LGA1200 as opposed to the current socket LGA1151. Likely current coolers can and will fit though. The new chipsets would be named H410, Q470, Z490, and W480. The Q470 and W480 chipsets would be aimed at embedded devices, H410 would become available for consumer motherboards as embedded, however, of course, would not be pin-compatible with the W480 and Q470 chipsets. Z490 is likely to support the 'our thang' that fast, the furious and overclockable chips in that enthusiast range.
The new Intel processors will stick to 16 PCIe lanes and the slides do indicate that to be PCIe Gen 3.0, then another 24 lanes for the chipsets and inbetween a DMI 3.0 link, that would be a 4 lane interconnect. WCCFTech, who leaked the info you see below, indicates that Intel wants to introduce models with ten cores and twenty threads. The fastest Core i9 mentioned is handed out a handsome turbo of 5.1 GHz (that is a single core value). The base clock is 3.0 GHz. You'll notice in the tables below that the Core i7 models will have eight cores and 16 threads, and the i5 six cores with hyperthreading. What is interesting to observe is the relatively low TDP assigned to even the fastest parts, 65 Watts.
