Skylake-S is a 14nm processor that is set to replace the Core i7 4790, Intel's so-called Haswell refresh part, and according to some early information we gathered it might launch at Computex 2015 or in June 2015.

Skylake-S needs a new socket, new chipset and new motherboard. The socket is called LGA 1151 and has a single pin more than Haswell, the company's current generation Core architecture. The new desktop processor supports both DDR4 1.2V and DDR3L 1.35V and it will be up to motherboard manufacturers to support one or the other.
