The i5-6500 has a 65 Watt TDP, 6MB of Smart Cache, and has other features similar to the other Core i5/i7 Skylake processors. The Core i5 6500 is a quad-core processor (no Hyper Threading) that has a reference clock speed of 3.2GHz while the turbo tops out at 3.6GHz. I've been testing out an i5-6500 under Ubuntu Linux and so far this processor with HD Graphics 530 is running well and offers compelling CPU performance relative to older Intel hardware as well as AMD's APU/CPU competition. One of the other processors now widely available is the Core i5 6500, which is a step down from the Core i5 6600K, but retails at just $199 USD - making it an attractive offer for many building new PCs and trying to stick to a decent budget.
With Skylake's retail availability improving, we're starting to see more of the Skylake processors in stock besides just the i5-6600K and i7-6700K.
