Launch schedule of mobile Intel Skylake processors

Instead of delaying they pushed forward some models. Looks like Surface Pro 4 will be ready for an October launch.
This didn't happen during IDF 2015 keynote but we did want Intel did show some notebooks. Nothing too special, just something a bit something sexy as a Skylake U Dell XPS 13 successor or a new RealSense camera based tablet.
Intel had a separate big session talking about gaming. Two VPs showed up with two gaming notebooks from EVGA, MSI but with vague details. It is a bit like aliens we know they exist and they will come soon, but at the moment we are "not ready" for the secret.
Our industry sources have told us that we should see some Skylake U and H based notebooks in September. The sales and availability will happen in later part of September for many customers.
In other words we expect that everyone will introduce their new designs at Berlin based IFA consumer electronics show that takes off in first days of September 2015.
SoC-Level Improvements = More Power For Graphics!
1.Aggressive power reduction in the CPU cores and elsewhere
2.More Intel SpeedStep® technology domains: System Agent and EDRAM I/O
3.Memory-side eDRAM
4. Double throughput of LLC miss handling
G.skill is showing off new memory at IDF. Does anyone think this stuff is even worth it? Seems like all the super fast memory is not available in 2x8GB either.
Has Intel disclosed L1 read/write numbers? Haswell has enough of resources to pump VMOVDQA's at very nice rate and enough to sustain FMA. Now question is, can you really push Skylake core without AVX512 instructions? Without input from Intel, anything is speculation at this moment.
You sure that Skylake's caches are fully inclusive?
Skylake notebooks will appear in September

Which OEM will be the first?

Insanely fast (and probably expensive), too bad there's no 2 x 8GB version.

UPS shipping will likely get it to you in ~ 3 business days. Mine's supposed to be delivered today.
Nice! Be sure & let us know other benchmarks please.. Like this one?

Here you go. 6600K @ 4.2
Core i7 6700K and Core i5 6600K owners can you please post your overclocks, voltages and cooling used? Oh and don't forget the CPU-Z Validation link/printscreen. We should do a ranking like other forums do.
Interesting, didn't know about that bench in CPU-Z. I just ran it on my 2600k @ 4.2 and got this:

Single thread scores look good but I'm getting low multithread scores, they vary each time but the highest was less than 3000. It was only using 60% of my cpu at the time. Might just be a Skylake Multithreaded bug that needs ironing out.
Processor power settings?
Except that you seem to forget that ARM architecture exists, you are also ignorant of the fact that the pc market is shrinking so Intel has to keep innovating to prevent a total collapse; except for those things you also seem not to have read the previous dozen pages and news about IDF, from IoT, to Skylake architecture. So here's a spoiler for you: Skylake is not - NOT - the same architecture as Haswell. Skylake is the work of a skilled, well funded team that worked five years to improve what is already superb (so with their time and bugdet, the Skylake team did not do nothing and did not intentially cripple the architecture; that would be very bad if Intel management allowed such drain of money). The result is improved power, improved performance, efficiency, overclocking and more.Thanks to AMD for being so poor, so absolutely awful, that Intel has been able to essentially sit still with no real innovation. We all suffer when there's no competition.
I'm quite sure 14nm DRAM doesn't exist. And Intel already said there would be more SKUs with eDRAM. But that will be on the SKUs where it makes sense, so not the slow GT2, but GT3 and GT4.You know guys, I seriously think Intel just f* up big this time.
I mean that i5 is on par with a much faster Haswell chip, it has much better graphics than an equal EUs count only for the bandwidth... and we are not going to see L4 in mainstream Skylake?
How big would a 128/64MB, 14nm eDRAM be? Some 40 to 20mm2 and it could easily improve BOTH the CPU and GPU.
Plus they wouldn't even need to make the die bigger to include it: just cut the IGP some 20/30% and get back that performance with the cache alone, while probably having same power consumption, one die only and a handy L4!
I'm not an engineer (still) but something fishy: either that's lack of competition right there or just complacency.
I can just hope current Xeons with eDRAM are such a huge succes that they implement it on all the line and mainstream part as consequence, still it's a sad looking affair from a desktop user perspective.
