Kaby Lake

What's there to announce? It's a skylel refresh.

It's a tick, not a tock.
Also it's 14 nm.

If it's 14nm it's not a tick.
It's the same shit as Devil's Canyon, but with more stuff in the southbridge.

Kaby Lake will add native USB 3.1 support, whereas Skylake motherboards require a 3rd-party add-on chip in order to provide USB 3.1 ports.[3] It will also feature a new graphics architecture to improve performance in 3D graphics and 4K video playback.[4]

Kaby Lake will add native HDCP 2.2 support.[5]

Kaby Lake will add full fixed function HEVC Main10/10bit and VP9 10bit hardware decoding.[6]

yes, it's a tick.

Defil's Canyon was 22 nm.

But Skylake was 14nm, and Kaby Lake is the refresh of Skylake.

Yeah it is a tick

Broadwell had a few 14nm CPUs released on the desktop
Skylake main 14nm desktop launch.

And now we soon have kaby lake.

You know tick means 'die shrink of the microarchitecture'

There's no die shrink, no tick.
There's no change in microarchitecture, no tock.

and also 3D XPoint

No, they said they can't tick yet, because "muh development issues" and that cannonlel will be a tick.

I don't see any USB 3.1 on the Kaby Lake CPU there. Only on the PCH of the Y-series. The SoC Kaby Lakes only have 3.0: sucks to be their tablets having to put USB-C connectors on USB 3.0 in 2016 when Samsung and Qualcomm will both be shipping 3.1. Only 2 memory channels. And still only gigabit eth. No 10gig. Intel make the chipset, but still don't want to include it.

I don't see the right bus for 3D X-Point support in there.

Looks like it's barely touching the processor, and spoiler alert: the 'new graphics architecture' is PowerVR Wizard, which means proprietary drivers like Broadwell.

Intel's failure to 'tock' means AMD's going to be on a similar process node and will finally have the chance to catch up with Zen.

This could be very interesting.

but then it's bad for us.
