Intel Skylake Processors will get 100-series Chipset
Well, chronologically ity only makes sense of course. But future Intel Skylake Processors will get a 100-series Chipset. And yeah, a slide on that chipset just reared its head on the mighty internet.
There will be four SKUs based on Skylake:
- SLK-S, which will be socketed LGA
- SLK-U ultra-low power BGA, for Ultrabooks
- SLK-Y mainstream BGA for compact desktops and all-in-ones
- SLK-H likely mainstream BGA for conventional notebooks.
So the Skylake generation of CPUs and PCHs also will get four kinds of wireless network controllers depending on the SKU, "Snowfield Peak" Wi-Fi + Bluetooth, "Douglas Peak" WiGig + Bluetooth, "Pine Peak" WiGig, and XMM726x 4G LTE controllers; and "Jacksonville" GbE wired Ethernet controllers are mantioned in the roadmap.
Thunderbolt will be upgraded towards a faster "Alpine Ridge" controller. Cheers to tpu for the spot on this one, roadmap via vr-zone.
