Intel Broadwell Core i7-5775C & Core i5-5675C released mid-may
There has been a lot of talk about Intel Broadwell processors. For the PC side of things, the 14nm desktop Broadwell processors will be the Core i7-5775C & Core i5-5675C. These will be the first two Desktop PC processors, and as its now know they will launch mid-May.
Over at HKEPC, Lam Chi-Kui noticed a marketing slide denoting the date. Though there are no other details mentioned this does confirm two LGA 1150 based SKUs to be launched prior tot Computex.
Just to recap, versions with the 'C" extension are the desktop LGA 1150 models, the 'R" models get a BGA socket. The C models will come with an unlocked multiplier (in the past that was K or X model). Initially five models will be launched but three of them are BGA and thus soldered onto the PCB socket. All Broadwell based ICs will get four cores, IGP wise the Iris Pro 6200 and JEDEC DDR3 1600 MHz support. And again all models will get a 65W TDP, which is lower compared to Haswell with its 84W/95W TDP.
The models will get 4MB L3 cache but no hyper-threading for the Core i5 model. Check out the following overview I have compiled for you:
Model | Cores / Threads | Clock / Turbo | L3-cache | IGP | Memory | Tdp | Socket |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Core i5-5575R | 4 / 4 | 2,8 / 3,3GHz | 4MB | Iris Pro 6200 | ddr3l-1600 | 65W | BGA1364 |
Core i5-5675C | 4 / 4 | 3,1 / 3,6GHz | 4MB | Iris Pro 6200 | ddr3l-1600 | 65W | LGA1150 |
Core i5-5675R | 4 / 4 | 3,1 / 3,6GHz | 4MB | Iris Pro 6200 | ddr3l-1600 | 65W | BGA1364 |
Core i7-5775C | 4 / 8 | 3,3 / 3,7GHz | 6MB | Iris Pro 6200 | ddr3l-1600 | 65W | LGA1150 |
Core i7-5775R | 4 / 8 | 3,3 / 3,8GHz | 6MB | Iris Pro 6200 | ddr3l-1600 | 65W | BGA1364 |

Intel brings TRIM to SSDs in RAID - 03/23/2010 12:34 PM
Nice move from Intel. Upto this point RAID setups did not have support for the TRIM command features in the Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows 7 and Linux 2.6.33+ operating systems. This made solid stat...

It feels that Intel is no longer considering the regular I7 as important. with all the M2 *4 well the Big I7 is the choice

Skylake is likely to be the biggest performance gain since Sandy Bridge.

How soon do you really expect DX12 to take off?
Everyone is so worried about DX12, but can't seem to comprehend the real impact of it. We won't start seeing games take advantage of DX12 until later this year, at the earliest. Even then, only people who upgrade to Win10 will see DX12. Even for those running Win10, DX12 is not going to be the massive performance bump that people are making it out to be.
Lower clock frequency and L3 cache quantity don't mean slower processor. Everyone is focusing on specs that don't necessarily directly impact performance.
Well it's all speculation at this point but speaking from personal experience moving from an 8350 to a 4790k I actually saw a drop in performance in multi-threaded applications even tho the 4790k is the faster chip the extra cores on the 8350 did make a difference in multi-threaded apps, if DX12 is all it's cracked up to be then I think having more CPU cores will have a considerable impact but yeah it is all speculation, still doesn't change the fact that we've been using dual and quad core processors for years.
