Intel core kabylake

A few hours ago we told you about the 'historic' announcement of Intel and its new KabyLake-G multi-chip (MCM) processor that will come with an AMD Radeon GPU. It has not been long before we begin to know the first technical specifications that this processor will have and even some first performance tests.

Intel Core KabyLake-G with Radeon GPU, First details and performance

In principle, there will be three processor models, the Intel Core i7 8705G, Core i7 8706 and the Intel Core i7 8809G, all based on the Kaby Lake architecture, in this case, we would be talking about the KabyLake-G architecture. They will be manufactured in 14 nm and will have 4 cores with 8 threads of execution.

The Radeon GPU that AMD is preparing would have some 1, 536 shader units with a speed between 1 and 1.1 GHz. The total power would be around 3.3 maximum teraflops. As anticipated, Intel's MCM processor will use HBM2 memory, about 4GB running at a speed of 700 MHz-800 MHz (1, 400 MHz - 1, 600 effective MHz).

Reach 4.1 GHz turbo speed

The main advantage of this approach is the incredible power savings and increased performance compared to traditional integrated GPUs (which used licensed technology from NVIDIA). With the power it will offer, you can easily play current games in high quality and 1080p resolution without consuming too much battery.

Some performance tests

Here we can see one of the first performance tests with Ashes of the Singularity and in 3DMark 11.

It should be noted that all variants of this processor will work with a base speed of 3.1GHz but will go up to 4.1GHz in turbo mode. Apparently the differences between chips would be the speeds at which the Radeon GPU works.

We will be aware of the first laptops that will come with this new proposal from Intel and AMD.
