Cannonlake is 24EUs for GT1 and 40EUs for GT2.
For Intel 1/4 rate has been for DP since the Ivy Bridge graphics architecture, which is Gen 7. 2x rate half precision is a Gen 9 feature.
48 EUs in Cannon Lake GT2 might also mean 48 EUs in Ice Lake GT2.
Curiously, I discovered Intel GPUs (Gen 9) can do half-precision at 2/1 rate, and double-precision at 1/4 rate of single-precision. Tangentially, half-precision in games is a topic that AMD Vega revived.
Do you think we will get a 400-series PCH with Icelake that enables a new PCIe topology (4x NVMe lanes direct to the CPU) and maybe PCIe 4.0.
Good find, but looking at the block diagram, there's still only 16 lanes of PCI-E 3.0 from the CPU.Addendum on this:

It says: "CPU Attached PCI-e storage"
That's on Coffeelake.

I think that is referring to using those PCI-E lanes for storage, not video.
The ASRock DeskMini H110W already does this.
Process availability date plus verification = TTM (Time to Market).
Incorrect.exactly. Which means whatever comes from 10nm+ is in 2019. No Ice lake in H2 2018 like eddman wanted to make us believe by drawing on PR-slides...
Incorrect.
1) Icelake got taped in 7 months after Coffee Lake
2) Brian Krzanich said on the earnings call a month ago they will start with the simple SKUs (i.e. Cannonlake) and in the second half they will release the complex SKUs (i.e. Icelake).
You're writing that as if I'm trying to sell you something. I'm just attempting an educated guess. Q4 2018 is a possibility, considering that intel is apparently giving up on 10 nm for standard power parts and focusing on 10+ nm. This is if things go smoothly, as mentioned. If not, then it could be as late as mid 2019.No Ice lake in H2 2018 like eddman wanted to make us believe by drawing on PR-slides...

It's really amazing how badly some people want Ice Lake to come in 2019
I missed that comment and you are right. Honestly I did not pay attention to 14++ in there. I was thrown off by intel's late 2017 CNL launch claims, but that doesn't seem to be either, based on that info. This does mess things up.Why would anyone care???
Don't pull stuff out of context. he was literally drawing lines on PR-slided to make predictions and it was nicely pointed out that by that logic we had 14nm++ products in 2016 which obviously is about 1 year wrong. So if you would actually trust the PR slides and add that 1 year delay, first 10nm+ products would be well into 2019. Of course you should not trust PR-slides.
I just based my statement in actual info. I also went against people saying AMD releasing a 7nm product in 2018 because GF claimed volumen production in 2H2018.It's really amazing how badly some people want Ice Lake to come in 2019

PCWatch reported that Ice Lake is planned for 2018, though...
The Intel Wireless-AC 9560 adapter is a CRF (companion RF module) supporting
the 1st generation integrated Intel wireless 802.11ac solution comprised of CNVi
and a CRF. The solution provides Bluetooth 5 and 2x2 802.11ac Wi-Fi including
wave 2 features such as 160MHz channels delivering up to 1.73Gbps
and downlink MU-MIMO.

CNVi; Refers to the integrated wireless IP portion residing in the SOC/PCH.
Is there any special about Icelake that people are waiting for it in anticipation?

Ice Lake is a new architecture, bringing the first meaningful IPC increase since Skylake in 2015. Note that according to slides from Intel manufacturing day, 10 nm + has less "transistor performance" than 14 nm ++, which may manifest as slightly reduced peak overclock.
There was a Cannon Lake-S (for desktops) 8-core in the works, before it was cancelled and replaced by Coffee Lake 6-core. Ice Lake is an opportunity to realize the 8-core.
Use fast storage? Possibly PCI Express 4.0 to buff the DMI link.
Use integrated GPUs? Cannon Lake has Gen 10, and possibly more cores: 320-384 cores (40-48 EUs) in GT2. Ice Lake Gen 11 is likely to build on that.

I thought this was a given, but hey confirmation is good
Hmm, maybe a bit of IPC along with the clock boost for Cascade Lake?! :thumbsup:
