The producers of the delay affected motherboards with which Intel will make available the new processors of the Core family, referred to by the name of Kaby Lake code. For the second quarter of the year they are in fact expected to be down sales volumes motherboard by about 10% as an average.
Asustek and Gigabyte, the two main producers in Taiwan, will close the first quarter with about 4.4 million sold motherboards each one: it is, as designed by Digitimes, a figure up 10% compared to the fourth quarter of 2015 but down compared to figures for the same period last year.
These two companies will benefit, during the second quarter, a shift in demand for motherboards in their favor over demand for the so-called second tier manufacturers models. For this reason, the contraction of 10% expected that average should prove to be lower for Asustek and Gigabyte, recording in excess of the remaining producers.
Intel will make available the Kaby Lake processors of new generation in the third quarter of the year, presumably between August and September. For this reason, manufacturers of Taiwanese motherboards will begin only in summer shipments of the new chipset-based models of the 200 family, from Z270 and H270 proposals positioned in the higher-end segment. The lack of these innovations is therefore the root cause of the small number of motherboards that will be sold during the second quarter of 2016; a recovery in volumes is not expected before August.
