Intel Ice Lake-U mobile processor to have 10nm architecture and improved graphics

-

It hasn’t even been a year since Intel’s Coffee Lake architecture was released and we are already hearing news about the upcoming architecture. It is speculated that Canon Lake would likely be the next architecture range from the company, however a new leak has revealed information about Ice Lake.
This new upcoming range, unlike Canon Lake, would fall under the 9th-generation of Intel processors.
According to the leak, the Intel Ice Lake-U processor is expected to feature new core and graphics uArch. The unnamed chip comes with UHD (4K resolution) Gen11 LP integrated graphics processor, has 48 execution units, 768kB of L2 cache 6GB of shared system memory and base frequency of 600MHz. This is a healthy jump and while the boost clock is still unknown, there is the mention of DDR4 SODIMM memory. The current generation has 512kB of L2 cache, and a base clock speed of 300Mhz.
Reports suggest that Intel has managed to achieve this boost thanks to the adoption of 10nm architecture.
So what does that mean?
Intel has always been a step behind when its comes to graphics performance when compared to Nvidia or AMD. Considering the leaked features of the chip, we can say that Intel will finally try to catch with the game. It won’t be gaming-class graphics performance, but it will definitely appeal to the regular, everyday notebook consumer.
This chip should also be quite stable. The reason we say this is because by the end of this year Intel will release its first 10nm-based chips under the Canon Lake moniker. This essentially means that by the time Intel is supposed to launch Ice Lake, it would have already ironed out the issues, the major and the small ones.
Another important point here is the recent collaboration of Intel and AMD. Last month we saw the announcement of Intel Core i5 and i7 chips powered by discrete AMD Radeon RX Vega M GPUs having 4GB of HMB2 VRAM. While we are speculating, there is no reason to ignore the fact that AMD could be helping Intel achieve improved graphics performance in mobile GPUs.

It's April 1, and everyone knows it's April Fools' Day when no one's going to believe in whatsoever you may scream. But when it comes to some reputed and trusted tech companies, they easily get into people's minds with their 'new and latest offerings'. These, in most cases, would be hoax or joke offerings - those that will never exist, or those that will be available for a very short time just for laughs. Even before April 1, these companies start pushing their stories to goof around with you - with little teasers, such as the Dash Charge  announcement  that OnePlus had teased, before making briefly  available  the Dash Energy drink in select outlets Here are 2017's April Fools' tech pranks - the gimmicks, goofs, and pranks that companies decided to plan on us. Some are funny, some inane, and some lame. 1. Google Google  has always been on the frontier of people, with quirky innovations that usually get people believe it. It has some bizarre-

Experience the Front Row in In Current VR technology most commonly uses virtual reality headsets or multi-projected environments, sometimes in combination with physical environments or props, to generate realistic images, sounds and other sensations that simulate a user's physical presence in a virtual or imaginary environment. A person using virtual reality equipment is able to "look around" the artificial world, move around in it, and interact with virtual features or items. The effect is commonly created by VR headsets consisting of a head-mounted display with a small screen in front of the eyes, but can also be created through specially designed rooms with multiple large screens. The Virtual Reality Modelling Language (VRML), first introduced in 1994, was intended for the development of "virtual worlds" without dependency on headsets. The Web3D consortium was subsequently founded in 1997 for the development of industry standards for we
