Intel announced the first 10nm processor, model i3-8121U, in such a low-key manner.
In the official ARK database, i3-8121U is codenamed Cannon Lake and belongs to the Core Mobile family of the 8th generation.
On the core specifications, i3-8121U is manufactured on 10nm process, dual-core and four-threaded, base frequency is 2.2GHz, acceleration frequency is 3.2GHz, 4MB cache, thermal design power consumption is 15W.
Memory supports up to 32GB of DDR4-2400 and LPDDR4/X-2400 (The current 8-generation low voltage is all LPDDR3) , The nuclear information is hidden.
There are two more details that are worth noting First, the package area is actually larger than the 14nm i3-8130U. Second, the AVX-512 extended instruction set is not supported. Previously, in an Intel instruction set guide, Cannon Lake was fully supported. However, for products such as low voltage i3, the necessity is not significant.
Currently, the Lenovo IdeaPad 330 with i3-8121U processor has been sold in China. The price of 4G+500GB is only 3,299 yuan.
The performance data comes from the store's posters. Compared with the computer five years ago, the performance is doubled and the 3D graphics performance is improved by 2.5 times. Compared with i3-6006U, the performance is improved by 25%. To be honest, there is no wave of confusion...
In addition, Hexus said that the Crimson Canyon NUC Mini with Cannon Lake i3 is scheduled to be available next month, with the RX 550 2G GDDR5 graphics card.
Since the large-scale shipment of 10nm is 2019, we still have to wait patiently for more than half a year.
