Fancy a Mac or Windows 10 PC with Intel’s new processors code-named Skylake? That will soon be possible: Intel will launch its first chips based on the new architecture in the first week of August.

The first Skylake chips will be high-end gaming processors that can be overclocked, and will be launched on or before August 7 during the Gamescom conference in Cologne, Germany, which runs from August 5 to 9, according to a source familiar with Intel’s plan.

Intel will also shed more technical details about Skylake at its Intel Developer Forum, which will be held between August 18 and 20 in San Francisco. Intel will talk about how Skylake will improve the experience of using Microsoft’s Windows 10, which will be in PCs starting July 29.
