Next Gen Intel 6 core chips?

[BTRY B 529th FA BN]

When are the next gen 6 core Intel chips coming out, and are they called Skylake E ?

There's two more generations on the way; Broadwell-E is due early next year, and Skylake-E either late next year or early 2017.

What's the enthusiast successor to the 6700K line? And is that Skylake E ?

No, that would be Kaby Lake.

No, that would be Kaby Lake.

And it's not due until next summer at the earliest - which is probably still earlier than AMD's Zen which has been pushed to Q4 2016.
