Curious if we're going to see another run of the (I believe) phenomenally-successful G3258, in Skylake form? Extra props to Intel, if they also let us have HyperThreading on it. Could be a bestseller of all time, then.

Edit: I see that this has partially been covered in the other thread.

These form the low end spectrum of Intel’s offerings and will not be updated on 5th August 2015. Instead they will be updated directly to Skylake variants sometimes in the Fourth Quarter of this year

No mention of any unlocked SKUs yet, or even the clock speeds of the locked SKUs.

Celeron 3000A (3GHz Anniversary) unlocked and with HT, now that would be fun.

Ok... The i5 maybe is a sure buy for people. The i7 might flop unless HT has 2X performance.

And... Waiting for Celeron K and HT Pentium
