Intel Skylake Launch Schedule Surfaces

Intel Skylake Launch Schedule Surfaces

Lots and lots of info on Skylake surfaces on the web lately. This round itsa roadmap that details the launch schedule of the 6th gen processors.

The roadmap is leaked by Benchlife, an Asian website. Next to the desktop range Intel is seriously updating its mobility lineup.  The desktop side would be the Skylake-S series, the Skylake-Y series would power the Core M based processors for ultra low TDP devices, Skylake-U processors will be mainstream mobility devices and Skylake-H series are the high-end, performance focused mobility chips that will include both regular HQ variants along with Xeon processors for consumers demanding extra workstation capabilities on developer notebooks. 

95W Skylake-S Processors (Core i7-6700K / Core i5-6600K)

The quad-core processor with HyperThreading enabled will get 8 logical CPUs. with a clock frequency of 4.00 GHz and a turbo towards 4.20 GHz Turbo Boost frequency. The CPU has 8 MB L3 cache, and an integrated memory controller that supports both DDR4 and DDR3 memory.

  • Core i7 6700K
    4 cores and Hyper-Threading, 4.0GHz frequency, 4.20GHz maximum Turbo Boost frequency, 8MB last-level cache, dual-channel DDR3/DDR4 memory controller with 1600MHz or 2133MHz support, 95W TDP, Intel HD Graphics 5000-series integrated graphics core, LGA1151 packaging
     
  • Core i5 6600K
    4 cores, 3.50GHz frequency, 3.90GHz maximum Turbo Boost frequency, 6MB last-level cache, dual-channel DDR3/DDR4 memory controller with 1600MHz or 2133MHz support, 95W TDP, Intel HD Graphics 5000-series integrated graphics core, LGA1151 packaging;

Intel 65W Mainstream Skylake-S Processors (Core i7 / Core i5)

WccfTech has got a nice skinny on these ones. Coming to the mainstream lineup, we are looking at 4 chips which include the Core i7-6700 that features same specifications as the Core i7-6700K but doesn’t come in an unlocked package. Similarly, the Core i5-6600 also has the same specifications as seen on the unlocked model but without the K-Series design that allows over-clocking support. Clocks for the Core i7-6700 are maintained at 3.4 GHz base and 4.0 GHz boost while the Core i5-6600 is clocked at 3.3 GHz base and 3.9 GHz boost. The Core i5-6500 is a quad core clocked at 3.2 GHz base and 3.6 GHz boost while the Core i5-6400 is a quad core clocked at 2.7 GHz base and 3.3 GHz boost. All of these chips feature a 65W TDP and the Core i5 models pack 6 MB of L3 cache while the Core i7 model gets 8 MB L3 cache.

Intel 35W Low TDP Skylake-S Processors (Core i7 / Core i5)

Over at the more power efficient side, Intel will launch 4 T-Series chips which stand for low-power. All chips feature just 35W TDP and include Core i7-6700T as a multi-threaded quad core with 2.8 GHz base and 3.6 GHz boost clock. It packs 8 MB of L3 cache. The Core i5 models range from the Core i5-6600T, Core i5-6500T and Core i5-6400T featuring 6 MB of L3 cache, quad core (non-multithreaded designs) and boost speeds ranging from 2.8 to 3.6 GHz.

Intel Skylake-S Desktop Processors Lineup
Model Process Cores Core Clock Boost Clock Cache Memory Support TDP Socket Unlocked Design
Core i7-6700K 14nm 4/8 4.0 GHz 4.2 GHz 8 MB DDR4 2133 MHz 95W LGA 1151 Yes
Core i5-6600K 14nm 4/4 3.5 GHz 3.9 GHz 6 MB DDR4 2133 MHz 95W LGA 1151 Yes
Core i7-6700 14nm 4/8 3.4 GHz 4.0 GHz 8 MB DDR4 2133 MHz 65W LGA 1151 No
Core i5-6600 14nm 4/4 3.3 GHz 3.9 GHz 6 MB DDR4 2133 MHz 65W LGA 1151 No
Core i5-6500 14nm 4/4 3.2 GHz 3.6 GHz 6 MB DDR4 2133 MHz 65W LGA 1151 No
Core i5-6400 14nm 4/4 2.7 GHz 3.3 GHz 6 MB DDR4 2133 MHz 65W LGA 1151 No
Core i7-6700T 14nm 4/8 2.8 GHz 3.6 GHz 8 MB DDR4 2133 MHz 35W LGA 1151 No
Core i5-6600T 14nm 4/4 2.7 GHz 3.5 GHz 6 MB DDR4 2133 MHz 35W LGA 1151 No
Core i5-6500T 14nm 4/4 2.5 GHz 3.1 GHz 6 MB DDR4 2133 MHz 35W LGA 1151 No
Core i5-6400T 14nm 4/4 2.2 GHz 2.8 GHz 6 MB DDR4 2133 MHz 35W LGA 1151 No

That doesn't bother them ONE BIT. Look ^^

:D

You guys are making an awful lot of declarative statements without knowing how Skylake or Zen are going to perform.

You do not need to know exact performance at all. You only need to know what will market need.
Total performance of FX-8350 is 30% higher than my i5-2500k provides (at same price).
Next gen games (DX12/Vulkan) will use 6~8 cores that means those FX CPU's will finally show some teeth after years.

Since FX-8350 AMD increased IPC about same as intel. Now they move from CMT to SMT, that is nearly free gain. And then they will still have some headroom (to catch on intel's IPC).
So even if AMD an intel do from that time same IPC improvement (and intel keeps same advantage) 4 core intel will do in games worse than 8 core AMD because there will be use for those cores.

I have maybe another 6 month where new games will be better on my CPU than on AMD's. So for me it was very good choice those years ago.
But next year there will be reason to upgrade. Either intel brings decently priced 6-core or AMD's 8-core gets all sales.

DX12 is meaningless because an 8 core AMD processor isn't going to suddenly become a 500fps monster. Read here:

http://www.anandtech.com/show/8962/the-directx-12-performance-preview-amd-nvidia-star-swarm/4

In a demo specifically designed to maximize the number of draw calls, a dual core i3 was sufficient. So that's out.

If you have seen those numbers and consider them enough, then you do not need that graphics card, you could get there with gtx680 and i3 easily.
But reality vs starswarm bench are quite different stories.

Everything in this quote has no meaning.

Reality is that fx 8350 at 4ghz cant even beat i5 2500k at 3.3ghz.

FX's wont be magically faster. It is what it is and it will stay there.
