In keeping with what was announced by the latest leaks, Intel has announced the laptop versions of its seventh-generation Intel Core processors, better known as Kaby Lake.

Intel Kaby Lake: Features of Low-Power Laptop Processors

As expected, Intel has announced only the low-power versions of its Kaby Lake processors for low-cost notebooks, ultrabooks, and 2-in-1 convertibles. The equipment with the new processors will begin to arrive on the market during the month of September.

Kaby Lake will be the last generation of processors that will be manufactured with the 14 nm Tri-Gate process before the arrival of Cannonlake in 2017, we are therefore facing a lithography at the maximum maturity and that has allowed Intel to refine its chips to achieve improvements in energy efficiency and performance without lowering the nm. The big improvements are found in the inclusion of a new ninth-generation GPU with hardware acceleration for the 10-bit HEVC and VP9 codecs as well as major improvements for video games.

Intel Kaby Lake-Y

First of all we have the Kaby Lake-Y processors intended for equipment where the most important thing is energy efficiency and not great power. Within this series we find the Intel Core m3-7Y30, Intel Core i5-7Y54 and Intel Core i7-7Y75 processors, all with a dual-core configuration with frequencies in their base and turbo modes of 1.00 / 2.60 GHz, 1.20 / 3.20 GHz and 1.30 / 3.60 GHz respectively. Its specifications are completed with TDPs between 4.5W and 7W and a DDR3L 1600 MHz and LPDDR3 1866 MHz dual chanel memory controller.

Intel Kaby Lake-U

Next we have the most powerful Kaby Lake-U processors that will bring ultrabooks and low-power equipment to life. In this case, it is also dual core processors with HT technology and we find the Core i3-7100U, Core i5-7200U and Core i7-7500U at frequencies of 2.40 / NA GHz, 2.50 / 3.10 GHz and 2.70 / 3.50 GHz. All of them with a chanel DDR3L 1600 MHz, LPDDR3 1866 MHz and DDR4 2133 MHz dual memory controller.
