I wish they'd make an unlocked i3, but that would be too likely to cannibalize their i5 sales. I liked overclocking my G3258 and most of my games are several years old. Just got Fallout 4 though and in many areas of the game the little Pentium has FPS drops and stutters my i5-4690k machine has no issue with. First time I really saw a pronounced difference between the two.

The G3258 is a good disposible chip that one can beat on to get a feel for overclocking without risking a more expensive chip and provides an entry point for people on extremely tight budgets. It works well with older, undemanding games. And that's about it...
As far as I can tell they will play any kind of porn you run across too.
I'd kill for an unlocked i3 equivalent. I don't need 4 cores for most things, but hyperthreading is nice. If the i5K settles at $250, I think $175 would even be a fair price for this hypothetical processor.
Highly doubt itSeems like Supermicro has unlocked the BLCK for all Skylake SKU's on one of their H170 boards.

Wonder if other manufacturers will follow suit on some of their boards?

You gotta link to one o' them boards?That board goes for $150+!
If this could OC the cheapest i5, I'd go for it.
