Re:Intel demonstrates a 28-core processor running at 5GHz by dis-sys on Tuesday June 05, 2018 @04:38AM (#17235900)
anandtech is reporting that the chip might be for the LGA2066 platform[1] for home use. ;)

Before you get too excited, the current generation of 28-core xeon running at 2.5G costs you over $10k each [2]. I won't be too surprised if Intel sets the price of a 5G 28-core Xeon at $15-20k.

That being said, having more choices is always good. Can't wait to see how AMD is going to respond to this using their Epyc line of chips.
