Because 8 generations of Core include Kaby Lake Refresh, Coffee Lake (desktop) and Cannon Lake (10nm in the second half of this year, is expected to be Core M identity), so, Intel's family code is also more and more confusing.
Previously, we already knew that the top Xeon products actually come out with a Cascade Lake-SP fresh after the Skylake-SP, and the desktop is going its own way.
On February 16, TPU was found in the database of SiSoft SANDRA, a well-known performance testing platform Intel Ice Lake family product figure.
The product's nucleus was identified as Gen 11, Taking into account Coffee Lake and Kaby Lake's iGPU are Gen 9.5, foreign media speculated that Ice Lake's verification chip.
The Gen 11 core was upgraded to 48 EU units, or 384 shaders, which doubles the direct pull of the UHD 630 on the i7-8700K. On the other hand, the Tune 600MHz almost doubles the UHD 630, sharing up to 6GB of memory and 768KB Dedicated video memory.
At least from the prototype of this product point of view, Intel still did not give up the nuclear display, but to greatly enhance.
One of the reasons may be that Ice Lake, the second-generation 10nm product, has enough process-level power to drop into more graphics processing units.
It is conservatively estimated that the new core will not catch up with the level of NVIDIA 940MX.
