Performance will be subpar with the A9.
Not if the Apple is also intel..

I thought Skylake Y would be 4W. Disappointing.
Hope there's an AnandTech podcast.
1.4V on a 14nm core? Doesn't that worry you at all?4.7ghz at 1.38v spikes to 1.4v under some loads.
Seems stable. 10 passes of real bench so far.
72-79c temps under max load on quiet fan profile

Temps are great but still, that vcore cannot be good for the health of that chip on the longer term...
Still waiting in the US for a 6700k........
Maybe they are allowing for a bit more performance (better turbo/less throttling)? I mean considering the power the rest of the system uses, I think I would give up 0.5 watts on the cpu for better performance.
Edit: actually, and I have said it before, unless you have money to burn, or your company is providing the device, this whole Y line does not make sense to me. They have some really nice looking products, but the performance is simply too low for the >1000 cost. Now if they would put core Y in something like surface pro 3 for 500.00, it would sell like hotcakes.

Can't wait to try the 72 EU + EDRAM part.

They come with 1.3v on them stock.
Temps are cool.
The bios doesnt say the voltage is high

what's your ambient? ...just to know how hot would it get with 30°C ambient temp
Why is it disappointing? If they can make it run faster @ 4.5W, while still keeping it fanless that's a good thing, ...or?
This is of course assuming they've managed to improve performance/clocks @ 4.5 W compared to 4 W.
Is 1.3 the XMP voltage with the feature that boosts all cores to 4.2GHz? I found yesterday that there was a lot more heat than I expected from what I thought was stock voltages when in fact enabling these features had increased the voltage considerably to around 1.3v. Re-setting to default gave a lower voltage and much lower temps.
System seems 24.7 stable, been on Arma 3 for a few hours and i can tell ive got a much faster system. FPS drops are much less severe and the FPS is much more stable in the town areas.
4.7ghz Skylake is like a 5ghz Haswell so im happy with the uprade from a semi stable 4.3ghz 4770k!
I just wanna see it more mainstream, in cheaper designs.
On earlier builds I've had troubles with setting a max voltage while still allowing the CPU to downclock and downvolt whenever its possible. I've had to at times lock the CPU to a voltage and constant clockspeed, causing me not to get any power saving benefits. If I didn't, then it would overvolt like crazy compared to what I told it to in BIOS. Is this still an issue in 2015?
My board gives me 1.224v for a 4.2 OC on all cores (Turbo off, manually set to 4.2). I use the "Normal" vCore setting in the BIOS. So I assume that is stock.
Any chance of that mobile Xeon showing up in a NUC? GT4e would be something to have in a NUC.
The lines between desktop and notebook computers are getting thinner and thinner. Intel has announced plans to bring its enterprise-class Xeon processors to notebooks, and offer unlocked, overclockable K series processors for notebooks later this year. Want even more power in your notebook? How about an external graphics card?
Intel says notebooks that feature Thunderbolt 3 ports will be able to connect to external graphics docks. This lets you use a high-power graphics card with your notebook while powering up to two 4K displays (in addition to your laptop display).
Thunderbolt 3 uses a USB Type-C reversible connector. That one tiny Thunderbolt 3 port can be used to connect a docking station that lets you output video to multiple displays, connect an external hard drive, keyboard, mouse, headphones and Ethernet cable. And since Thunderbolt 3 can handle up to 100 watts of power, you can also charge your laptop through its Thunderbolt port at the same time.
Intel is showing off a sample graphics dock with an AMD Radeon R9 M385 graphics card at IDF in San Francisco. But we could eventually see third-party graphics docks that let you add your own graphics card. This could let you buy high-performance graphics cards designed for desktop computers and use them with your notebook. And it could also let you upgrade in the future when youre no longer happy with that cards performance
