Intel Intros Five Broadwell Desktop Processors

Ronnie Bulaong Leave a comment

In addition to the four new 5th Generation mobile processors, Intel also announced five new desktop SKUs under the Broadwell which includes two Core i7 chips and three Core i5 processors.

Instead of using the usual ‘K’ to denote unlocked processors, Intel uses ‘C’ on the two new overclock-able SKUs. The chipmaker did, however, retains the use of ‘R’ nomenclature for the new soldered processors under the Broadwell lineup.

All of the new desktop processors that Intel launched are based on the chipmaker’s 14nm process. These new SKUs share the same integrated GPU (Intel Iris Pro 6200) and same TDP rated at 65W.

As part of the package, both the CPU and iGPU can take advantage of the Intel Crystal Well – a 128MB eDRAM integrated on the processor die that acts as an L4 Cache.

These new 5th Generation desktop SKUs are expected to be released in the market within a month or two. Users who are planning to upgrade to any of these new processors should be happy to know that all of these chips are compatible with existing Intel 9 Series motherboards.

Intel Debuts New 5th Generation Mobile Processors

Along with the official announcement of Thunderbolt 3, Intel also debuted the last batch of mobile processors under the Broadwell lineup which consists of three new Intel Core i7 processors and a dual-core Intel Core i5 chip.

The announcement of these new Broadwell-H processors came five months after Intel announced the Broadwell-U earlier this year.

There are actually five (5) processors that were launched during the event, but we excluded the Intel Core i7-5700HQ from our list because it had already made its way to some high-end notebooks prior to the announcement.

All of the newly-launched Broadwell mobile processors are equipped with an Intel Iris Pro 6200 iGPU, albeit with varying base frequency. These new 5th Gen SKUs also share the same TDP which is rated at 47W, noticeably higher than any of the mobile processor that Intel launched back in January.

Lastly, all of these new chips (excluding the i7-5700HQ) are also embedded with an Intel Crystal Well (Crystalwell), a 128MB embedded RAM (eDRAM) that is referred to by the chipmaker as L4 Cache that is accessible by both the CPU and the GPU.

Intel expects notebook PCs with the new 5th Generation Intel Core mobile processors to start popping out in the next month or two.
