I was under the impression the Ice Lake is the first new architecture since Skylake. Cannon Lake was supposed to be the 10nm die shrink of Skylake, no?
The A12X is pretty exciting, but I badly want to know how it stacks up against Ice Lake, and we should be able to do that by now. The Skylake architecture is so old that it's not even fair to compare it to the A12X. Let's hope Intel can ship Ice Lake soon...
Thank you! I also noticed it's mentioned on Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whiskey_Lake_(microarchitecture)
I'm really surprised Intel didn't advertise this more, it's not insignificant on a laptop, every little bit helps
Forgive me if this question is just wrong, I'm just curious and was hoping someone could help explain.
With the performance of so many devices (smartphones and tablets) largely being dictated/bottlenecked by its thermal capacity (the larger the device, the more heat it can handle)...
The Surface 3 was a 'sealed' fanless tablet, like a phone or an iPad, but it had an Atom chip. The Surface Pro 4 had a fanless Core m3 model, but there was venting all around the perimeter of the device (not exactly waterproof haha) and people rightly pointed out that iPads don't have vents at...
Everyone is so focused on performance per watt and performance per dollar but, if I'm not mistaken, next year AMD will have hardware fixes for Spectre* and that seems like a big factor in the decision making. There's always new variants being found and that has to be a huge pain for companies...
Now that there are real Windows 10 devices coming out powered by Snapdragons, I wonder if QSync (Qualcomms version of adaptive sync) works on Windows? That could make a real difference in these devices when it comes to gaming. Does anyone know?
Intel chipsets are always made on the previous node, but for Whiskey Lake laptops, will they be made on the 14nm process? Some rumors that this is the case and I would hope so because they need as much help as they can get for Whiskey Lake. Also, how much of a difference would this make on a laptop?
You can actually do some light gaming with the newest integrated graphics from Intel (obviously not newer titles with high quality settings) , but does Intel have their own G-Sync/FreeSync tech coming? Also, wouldn't it help slightly with normal use (not gaming)?
Intel must design their chips to work on Windows, Mac and Linux. That's quite a lot of significantly different operating systems and surely can be a bit limiting and compromising. Once Intel no longer has to consider macOS in their designs, will there be some small improvements and 'wins' for...
I don't think Windows Central is lying or wrong, but of course I would like to see Anandtech do their own tests too. And while they're at it, they should test the Acer Switch Alpha 12 which is apparently the first fanless i5 device, it would be interesting to see how it compares to the 2017...
Well of course it's a game changer because it's no longer A10X vs kaby lake core m7 (apparently they renamed this chip to i7 haha), it's A10X vs kaby lake i5, the real i5, not the m5 that's been renamed to i5
One of the most interesting 'battles' is Apple's X-series iPad chips (faster, more powerful versions of the iPhone SoC's) vs Intel's Core M chips, but something has happened very recently that has really turned this on its head: there are now real, true i5 Windows tablets that are fanless! the...
Hi, I was hoping someone can help me out here. I'm might get a Surface 3 but I would like to know its "effective resolution", and what I mean by "effective resolution" is this: take the Surface Pro 4 for example. It has a 2736x1824 display but its default and recommended scaling is 200%, which...
Intel is the only company thats process is as advertised. Its 14nm process really is 14nm, and its 10nm process really is 10nm. The marketing departments of their competitors have made a mockery of this though. There are quite a few articles by experts that dive deeper into the weeds about this...
Forgive my ignorance, for all I know my question might not even be valid, but does Intel's SpeedShift apply to the GPU too? You hear about how browsers (particularly Edge) really use the GPU a lot for better performance, and how web browsing is the use scenario where SpeedShift makes the biggest...
Long term no, and I think so because they might have chips that are significantly better than the competition because of their process advantage. I don't know when anyone else really plans to 'ship' true 10nm, but intel really is doing that in the 2nd half of 2017. It could be a year or even...
This is good news because Intel has what, 85%-90% of the PC market? I like Intel but that's not a good thing. We need this competition. And didn't Intel kill Atom for Windows? These ARM chips will fill that gap nicely (I'm always surprised to see how well Atom chips sold, so ARM Windows machines...

So here's what we think so far
- FIVR
- new graphics architecture too, and it might even be by AMD! (I'm not making this up, search in google news)
And this one is just me guessing based off the...
Correct me if I'm wrong, Intel's first chip on the 10nm process will just be the Skylake/Kaby Lake microarchitecture again. The chip AFTER that will be the new design. I can't find any info about it though! I saw a tweet last month that said it really won't be possible to run Windows 7 on it...
Skylake/Kaby Lake tablets (pretty much just the Surface Pro 4 if I'm honest) were slightly handicapped by the lack of LPDDR4 relative to the competition like the iPad Pro. Will Cannonlake support LPDDR4 or will we have to wait for the next chip?
The more I think about this the more it seems like Apple made a bad call by not having Intel manufacture their chips. They had an existing and good relationship with Intel since macs switched to intel. All iDevices would have been significantly better for users (and crucially, significantly...
I came across this today and I'm hoping to hear what the smart people of the anandtech forums think of this article because I don't think I've ever heard that Samsung is ahead of Intel on the manufacturing tech side, I've only heard that TSMC is closing the gap pretty quickly and Samsung is a...
Oh I should have been more specific, I did mean LPDDR4. And yes, even the iPad Pro and smartphones use LPDDR4 now, why would intel not be all over this? It's a 'free' improvement in both speed and lower power consumption
I just read that you can't have DDR4 ram with the core m skylake chips. Does anyone know if the kaby lake core m chips will have DDR4 support? Surely it will?
