I would have prefered 6870HQ instead. http://ark.intel.com/compare/93340,93341

If you only look at peak figures P100 will crush Knights Landing:Does anyone have an idea of how Nvidia's P100 compares against Xeon Phi?
The gap is widening a lot it seems: current top systems are using K20x which has peaks of 4 TF/S SP, 1.3 TF/S DP, 250 GB/s vs Xeon Phi 31S1P which has peaks of 1 TF/S DP, 320 GB/s.Raw numbers are better indeed, but it was the same for previous GPUs against Phi and they were still used in many supercomputers.
AgreedThe Xeon surely is better at handling more complex code like a CPU would, so the peak number is just a fluke for both: I'm guessing you have to test each implementation to see how they really fare.
It looks like GT2 graphics with eDRAM? It should help the cpu too at that TDP (it's a -U chip), just like Broadwell with L4 at lower clocks fares better than Skylake in some task.
If you only look at peak figures P100 will crush Knights Landing:
How this will translate in real life applications is not yet known to mere mortals
- P100 is 10.6 TF/s SP and 5.4 TF/s DP while KNL is 6 TF/s SP and 3 TF/s DP.
- P100 has a bandwidth of 720GB/s vs KNL 400 GB/s

Some news on kabylake:

GM200 is 8B transistors, it's apples and oranges.And Nvidia claims 15B transistors for 610mm2. I have a hard time believing TSMC 16nm could be twice denser than Intel 14nm. I guess they are not counting transistors the same way.
CPU Comparison Chart
Core i5-6350HQ: 350MHz (base), up to 900 MHz
Core i7-6770HQ: 350 MHz (base), up to 950 MHz
Core i7-6870HQ and Xeon E3-1515M v5: 350 MHz (base), up to 1 GHz
Core i7-6970HQ and Xeon E3-1545M v5: 350 MHz (base), up to 1.05 GHz
Xeon E3-1575M v5: 350 MHz (base), up to 1.1 GHz
I wish that is accurate and isn't another messed up hardware string. According to the older news, the GT2 does not have any eDRAMs. Unlikely as it is, I still hoping that Intel should outright shifting the GT-thingy(well GT2->GT1, GT3->GT2, and so on) up a notch.
Where do you see edram in this link?
It's the only mentioned capacity and I doubt they assigned only 128mb of ram for the iGPU:

It may still be a false positive...
Performance Summary: The Asus Z170 ROG Maximus VIII Extreme motherboard is an absolute beast. It may not have broken any official performance records. However, overclocking-wise, hitting 4.8GHz on a Z170-based board is a first for us using such a simple ratio-based method. It also remained rock solid even in games and our PCMark8 synthetic benchmarks when overclocked to that speed.
This ASUS motherboard is decked out from top to bottom with more features than we can list. However, the notable head-turners include the handy OC Panel II external tuning and system monitoring hardware utility, the Extreme Engine Digi+ core voltage power controller and the SupremeFX 2015 audio processing engine. Many of these are premium, sought-after features not found on many motherboards currently. On the storage front, not only do you get eight SATA ports, but the board also features M.2 and U.2 storage support, which should take care of your high speed NVMe storage needs. And we can't forget Bluetooth and Wi-Fi support via the included adapter and a bevy of software utilities...
...But honestly, neither of these boards are for the budget builder who's merely looking to slap together an average PC. The Asus Z170 ROG Maximus VIII Extreme motherboard is for the tireless system builder who can't or won't stop tuning and tweaking, who is always on the hunt for increased performance. For you, we can attest, this premium motherboard will keep you entertained for a good long while.

Does anyone know if Intel will release Skylake mobile CPU i5-6350HQ anytime soon? It was announced in January and slated for release in Q1. But it's now past due and nowhere near the news that it was going to be released. I can't wait to buy a laptop with this CPU.
OEMs hate Iris Pro. Maybe the upcoming Macbook Pro will use it.
