![]() And news sources from China can be hit or miss. As it is, we're getting maybe 10% improvement between microarchitectures, and less than that when they do a tick refresh. While I can believe that Intel is struggling with 10nm, I wonder if they really want to have an in-between processor release where the change is marginal. The "H" series will also come with the new GT4 graphics unit from Skylake and 256 MB of extra cache. TICK Pentium 4 ( Cedar Mill) Pentium D (Presler) TOCK Core 2 07/2006 11/2008 New microarch.: 256-bit (FP) AVX, ring bus, integrated GPU 01/2011 01/2010 32nm RS 45nm RS 22nm TICK Penryn Family TOCK Nehalem TICK Westmere TOCK Sandy Bridge TOCK Haswell 04/2012 New microarch. The "H" line will be quad-core processors with TDPs of just 35 to 45 watts. The "H" and "S" processors will have a separate Platform Controller Hub (PCH) chip, unlike the single-chip design of "Y" and "U." The new PCH feature will be support for USB 3.1 interface. Some of the "U" series will have the higher end GT3 graphics with 64 MB of extra cache, while others will use a GT2 graphics unit. It will use the GT2 graphics core, or the HD 4x00 graphics that came with the Haswell processor. Kaby Lake will have four processor lines, dubbed "Y", "U", "H" and "S." The "Y" and "U" lines are single-chip dual-core microprocessors not much different from Skylake, except the "Y" line will have a power draw as low as 4.5 watts. Kaby Lake processors will be mostly identical to Skylake but there are improvements to be had in TDP and performance. The Chinese hobbyist site claims Intel may postpone the Cannonlake platform, the 10nm die shrink of 14nm Skylake, and release a whole new line of 14nm processors called Kaby Lake. Now it seems the company is facing another delay, but instead of holding off on launches, it has a whole new processor line. Because Broadwell, a tick, was late, it delayed the launch of Skylake, the tock. It took Intel almost a year to get 14nm working, which delayed the introduction of the Broadwell line of chips. Just recently, SemiWiki reported an even further delay, until 2016. New design of the existing core on the existing die size.Intel was supposed to convert its fab in Kiryat Gat, Israel, to manufacture 10nm chips, but delayed the upgrade until December. Oh and Devil's Canyon was just a "Haswell Refresh". These are designed with more High Availability features and while they usually have slower cores, they have more of them than the EP line and the system is designed to take hits like a failing DIMM and keep right on going without crashing the OS. XXX-EX is the 2/4/8+ Socket "Big Iron" type server. I call it the poor man's 4S because its not the. XXX-EP4S is a newish 4 Socket design based on the 2 Socket proc. These processors run like 85% of servers in the Enterprise (big companies). XXX-EP is the 2 Socket (Dual Processor) Server and High end Workstation processor. XXX-E is the Workstation version and is usually half of a. These processors are often $500 to $3000 a piece so Intel is basically using the normal desktop version to flush out any bugs before they put this new design into a server. Then some time after that, could be months or sometimes an entire year, the server and "Workstation" market get the same new core. ![]() So you will see average (<$1000) desktops and most laptops get whatever the new processor is first. Oh and to the OP Arty, The Desktop and sometimes Laptop processors from Intel (lately anyway) lead the pack. If you are referring to the internal names like Haswell and Sandy Bridge, get out a map of. This means Die Shrink but usually Same socket as prior gen Intel follows a tick-tock model for improving its products. This means new Architecture and usually a new socket.Ī t I ck is an Incremental upgrade. Haswell was the Tick, Broadwell will be the TockĪ t O ck is an Overhaul. ![]()
