I have been using a mix of Kabylake and Skylake CPUs for sometime and I have not encountered any GPU limitations as of yet.
I had also seen rumors similar to those the OP mentioned early on, but now tend to lean toward the consensus that it may have just been more of an issue with early versions of motherboards versus a widespread issue with the CPU architecture that you would need to be worried about.

I plan on using Gigabyte H110-D3A mobo. @sevenmiles do you know if it's good for Kaby ?

Gigabyte H110-D3A supported CPU list here
Celeron works for me with 6 cards
I am not fun Intel cpu i cant tell anything.

Find list of supported CPUs, if Kaby Lake CPUs are not supported in the first version of bios you may need other CPU for bios updatu. I plan on using Gigabyte H110-D3A mobo. @sevenmiles do you know if it's good for Kaby ?

Ive got a kaby lake i3-7300t 35w tdp and running 5 1060's and cpu mining monero without any problems at all.
Hello,
About GPU mining, I seem to have read that Kaby Lake CPUs could have problems to run more than 4 GPUs
Yet, nobody I could find is really able to elaborate on the matter. So I am unsure if the issues come from the CPU or other parts. I am interested about G3930 / G4560 / i3-7100
Please share your experiences. Thank you

I built many rigs for myself and for my customers with 6-7-8 gpu setup . on some of those rigs i used Kaby Lake CPUs ,Skylake CPU's never had any problems with them.
it's not the CPU, but you need to match the CPU with the correct motherboard
Skylake CPU, such as Pentium G4400 works perfectly with 170 chipset motherboard, while Kaby Lake CPU, such as celeron G3930, should be together with 270 chipset motherboard
otherwise, you will for sure have some issues
I think this was already discussed several times on this forum

I have 1 rig with G3930 and 5 AMD cards, no problem, 6 was working good too there. And also same CPU with 6x GTX 1060 and running pretty good. Both mobo has Z270 chipset. I had those Celerons with better price than older G3900.
A friend of mine who's running a mining rig with a G4600 has no issues whatsoever running 6 GPUs on the B250 chipset, which has 12 PCIE lanes (for a total of 28).
Kaby Lake isn't much different to Skylake architecturally and it doesn't make sense that there would be issues present in Kaby Lake that weren't in Skylake.
One of my miner is with a Kaky lake Celeron and I have no problem with it.Kaby Lake isn't much different to Skylake architecturally and it doesn't make sense that there would be issues present in Kaby Lake that weren't in Skylake.
Kaby lake is a very good architecture, with a very very low consumption and a very low heat making.
The Celeron Kaby lake is writted with 51 TdP, but in the reality it is very under this number : no need of a big ventirad.
