Why are Kaby Lake processors so different from Sky Lake ?
Intels 7th generation processors are said to handle 4K graphics without any glitch.
GPUs are used in embedded systems, mobile phones, personal computers, workstations and game consoles.
Kaby Lake is Intels codename for the upcoming 14-nanometer successor to the Skylake microarchitecture.
It will feature a new graphics architecture to improve performance in 3D graphics and 4K video playback.
Intels 7th generation Kaby Lake processors will have two variants.
The high-end version is Core i7-7700K and can boost up to to 4.5 GHz.
According to sources Intel is looking to design two different variants of i7 chips.
One would be designed for the HEDT market while the others will be designed for the mainstream market.
The mainstream lineup which is internally known as Kaby Lake-S will be featured on the LGA 1151 socket.
Intel was supposed to launch Cannon Lake processors before Kaby Lake this year.
However, Intel honchos seems to change their mind and went ahead with Kaby Lake.
The 10nm-based Cannon Lake was scheduled to launch at 2017.
