Wait, you can do that to extend socket lifespan and gather more customers? /Intel_gasp

New CPU would be cheaper than upgrading RAM.

Does that mean no AM6 any time soon?

Hopefully
would be 2H2027 or 1H2028. They would continue overlap support for AM5 through 2029.

Coming out with new boards every couple years is aggravating.
Have several air coolers that now are essentially trash, because the mounting brackets are different.

Still rocking LGA 1700.
Patiently waiting for NovaLake on LGA 1954.
Several??
You should probably stop buying cheap coolers cuz most have mounting brackets out the box going back to LGA 775. (Scratch that maybe you should buy cheap coolers as clip on coolers are pretty much universal going back to the turn of the millennium(yes millennium))
Intel 72 x 72 is old old school, your cooler has done its time...........75 x 75 for Intel means you could have kept using the same cooler since forever ago, and LGA1700 being 78 x 78 means the bracket difference is small enough you didnt need a new cooler just the bracket, which when LGA 1700 came out alot of manufacturers were charging only shipping for.
Remember this thing:
It could have been your cooler of choice since like LGA 775 and with the mounting bracket for LGA 1700 you could be using it today.
If you are gonna complain about cooler compatibilty Intel is NOT the company you should be worrying about as they try to keep their dimensions square and only go up enough that coolers are actually still compatible.
AMD are the ones who fuck shit up with AM2/2+/AM3/3 and AM4 being so different, if your cooler was a bolt through then that was that pretty much.
The Clip-On coolers were never an issue though.
What coolers from what platform do you have sitting around that arent compatible from when you got them to today??

It's still getting proper support.
AM4 is still getting UEFI updates. The last one showed is dropping this month, for most motherboards with AM4 AGESA ComboV2 1.2.0.11
