Intel's upcoming Skylake processors are arriving next week, on August 5, but there may be some issues with the Skylake-S processors and their supply. According to an early report, the Skylake-S processors will launch in limited numbers, with supplies building up over time. However, there are some issues with this. One is that Intel has supposedly been operating the fabrication facilities under capacity because of how many chips have already been produced. Another is Intel has always met demand on new product launches, and given how big Skylake could be, there probably won't be a supply issue here. Lastly, the supply issue may be localized in different regions, considering the supply problem rumor originated from a Swedish retailer. So, take the rumors of Intel Skylake-S supply problems with a hefty dose of salt. There may be an issue, but it could just be speculation and rumor based on how many parts have arrived at one specific retailer.
