Intel today officially unveiled a new addition to the 8th generation of the Core CPU family, the 'G' suffix processor incorporating the Radeon RX Vega M GPU for high-performance notebook platforms.
Specific product models, namely, Core i7-8809G / i7-8709G / i7-8706G / i7-8705G and a Core i5 product i5-8305G.
Core i7-8809G : 4 core 8 threads, Kaby Lake architecture, clocked at 3.1GHz, acceleration frequency of 4.2GHz, dual channel DDR4-2400 memory, integrated 1536 stream processors Vega M GH display core (800MHz, 4GB HBM2 memory, 1024bit wide), thermal design power 100W.
Core i7-8709G : 4 core 8 threads, Kaby Lake architecture, clocked at 3.1GHz, acceleration frequency of 4.1GHz, support for dual-channel DDR4-2400 memory, integrated 1536 stream processors Vega M GH display core (800MHz, 4GB HBM2 memory, 1024bit wide), thermal design power 100W.
Core i7-8706G : 4 core 8-thread, Kaby Lake architecture, vPro, clocked at 3.1GHz, acceleration frequency of 4.1GHz, dual channel DDR4-2400 memory, integrated 1280 stream processors Vega M GL graphics core (700MHz, 4GB HBM2 memory, 1024bit wide), thermal design power 65W.
Core i7-8705G : 4 core 8 threads, Kaby Lake architecture, clocked at 3.1GHz, acceleration frequency of 4.1GHz, dual channel DDR4-2400 memory, integrated 1280 stream processors Vega M GL graphics core (700MHz, 4GB HBM2 memory, 1024bit bit width ), Thermal design power 65W.
Core i5-8305G: 4 core 8 threads, Kaby Lake architecture, clocked at 2.81GHz, acceleration frequency of 3.8GHz, dual channel DDR4-2400 memory, integrated 1280 stream processors Vega M GL graphics core (700MHz, 4GB HBM2 memory, 1024bit wide) , Thermal design power 65W.
special, The flagship model i7-8809G will be fully open overclocking, including the CPU, Vega GPU, nuclear display and HBM2 memory.
Chip design, the use of embedded multi-chip interconnect bridge (EMIB) technology to achieve communication between the GPU and HBM2 directly connected to the CPU's 16 PCIe channels, 8 for interconnection, and the remaining 8 for external devices.
Intel stressed that the new 8-generation Core Duo processor will help notebooks achieve high performance within 17mm, while battery life increased to 8 hours.
So how performance?
among them Powered by Vega M GH's high-performance i7 processor, performance is up to 13% better than Max-Q-designed GTX 1060 (6G) notebooks.
Terminal, HP has released a new x360-15 equipped with Intel / Radeon processor i7-8705G, starting at $ 1,370, March 18 listing.
