Intel® has officially announced the full product SKU line-up for its 6th Generation Core™ processor family, which is built on Intel’s newest wave of 14nm processors and delivers enhanced performance and new immersive experiences at the lowest power levels ever. These processors also support the broadest range device designs – from the ultra-mobile compute sticks, to 2-in-1s and huge high-definition all-in-one desktops, to new mobile workstations.
6th Generation Intel® Core™ Processor Family and Intel® Xeon® Processors for Mobile Workstations - Intel’s Best Processors Ever
The 6th Generation Intel® Core™ processor family and Intel® Xeon® processors for mobile workstations are Intel’s newest wave of 14nm processors. Along with the Intel® 100 Series and Intel® CM236 chipsets, they deliver a leap in performance and power efficiency, providing stunning visuals, and enabling amazing user experiences when paired with Windows® 10. These are Intel’s best processors ever, setting a new standard of computing with 2.5x better productivity performance, 3x longer battery life, and 30x better 3D graphics performance when compared to a 5-year-old notebook PC. The 6th Generation Intel® Core™ processor family is Intel’s most scalable processor family ever, enabling a diverse range of form factors to meet every lifestyle and work style.
The Skylake architecture, being used in 6th Generation Intel® Core™ and Intel® Xeon® processors, delivers high processor and graphics performance, high-resolution video playback, and seamless responsiveness for fanless systems with low power usage while retaining the capability to scale up to the most powerful mobile workstations and desktop systems. The result is immersive experiences with up to 40% better graphics performance (versus the previous generation graphics) and a power-sipping 4K video playback capability. The Skylake architecture makes it possible to realize a stunning improvement in energy efficiency–up to 60% for some SKUs–while enabling higher levels of performance.
6th Generation Intel® Core™ Processors Based on the Mobile U-Processor for IoT Solutions
6th Generation Intel® Core™ processor family featuring ultra low-power, 64-bit, multi-core processors built on the latest 14 nm technology. Designed for small form-factor applications, this multichip package (MCP) integrates a low-power CPU and platform controller hub (PCH) onto a common package substrate. The 6th Generation Intel® Core™ processor family offers a dramatically higher CPU with improved graphics performance, a broad range of power and features scaling the entire Intel® product line, and new advanced features that boost edge-to-cloud Internet of Things (IoT) designs in a wide variety of markets. These processors run at 15W thermal design power (TDP) and are ideal for small, energy-efficient, form-factor designs, including digital signage, point-of-sale terminals, and medical tablets.
