I am about ready to order an Intel Core i7-5820K and a shiny new X99 something mb, DDR4 memory and all the fixings.

Then along comes skylake.
Is there any reason to consider this ?


I have always used sound blaster cards, mainly for positional audio in games.
A friend said games no longer support positional since all they want is LOUD.
Is this true?
Are any of the X99 boards with sound blaster onboard worth considering?

thanks for any and all info, directions and flames
