Asian tech site BenchLife claims it knows the release dates of Intel's upcoming Skylake desktop processors and new 100-series chipsets.

If the information is correct, the first embargo will be lifted on August 5th and we'll see the arrival of the Intel Core i7-6700K and i5-6600K processors as well as Z170 chipset based motherboards on that date.

The i7-6700, i5-6600, and i5-6400 as well as the i7-6700T, i5-6600T, and i5-6400T processors are scheduled for a release between August 30th and September 5th. The same goes for the H170, B150, and H110 chipset based motherboards. Enterprise level Q170 and Q150 will have to wait until at least October before they get the newest technology out of the house of Intel.

Here's the leaked launch schedule:
