hey guys this is Austin if you love laptops I have some good news for you so Intel recently invited me out to their event in San Francisco where they showed off a wide range of new chips including not only Intel processors that have built in AMD dedicated graphics but we're also going to be getting new laptop chips across the board including a brand new six core core i-9 option for laptops so let's start with the very first Intel processor that has dedicated AMD graphics that are actually built inside the chip or by its short name of the eighth generation Intel Core processors with Radeon rx Vega graphics because you know that rolls off the tongue so the CPU side of things isn't all that exciting you're getting a quad core cable a base CPU that at least on the core i7 can boost up to 4.2 gigahertz what really makes this special is the idea that you're getting a pretty much dedicated Radeon graphics card that's actually going to be paired inside that same chef so this is going to be a custom Vega implementation with between 20 or 24 ciues depending on if you go with Core i5 or Core i7 they had a couple laptops available to demo the HP Spectre x-360 which looks very similar to the Envy x-360 we recently took a look at running rising mobile as well as the Dell XPS 15 two and one now these are fairly thin unlike laptops now they do have 15-inch displays when you consider that they have the CPU and the GPU all inside a 65 watt TDP they don't have to be all that thick and they don't need to have any kind of crazy cooling it's all going to be on one chip which means that for a lot of these things they can actually be pretty close to ultrabooks and of course being much much more powerful no we'll have to wait until I actually get one of these laptops into test but if you do want to sneak peek at the performance I recently did do a video on the new Hades Canyon and tail nook which was going to be a little bit more powerful does have that same chip inside there were a ton of other processors announced as well so on the mainstream side the u series processors that go on a ton of ultra books are going to be getting Irish Plus graphics so while these are going to be almost definitely found in things like the next generation 13-inch MacBook it's going to be really nice to be able to have a fairly thin and small laptop they can have not only quad-core processors but also pretty decent integrated graphics nothing crazy certainly not going to touch the Radeon stuff but it should be a nice step forward what's really exciting though are the brand new gaming top chefs so these are the h-series processors and at 45 watts it's what you find in pretty much any gaming laptop as well as some workstations so there's a big change across the board first of all the core i5 are basically being bumped up to what you used to be able to get us a core i7 so there's still going to be quad core but they now have hyper threading so if you have a older generation Core i7 the low ends now is going to be roughly equivalent the real sweet spot though are going to be the brand-new eighth generation Core i7 which is just like the desktop are moving from four cores to six cores and yes having six cores in the gaming laptop is going to be awesome especially considering that they keep that same 45 watt TDP it's literally just more free performance the only no place you lose out here is with clock speed so with the base core i7 8750 h when you're completely maxing it out with all six cores the base clock is only going to be two point two gigahertz however it can boost all the way up to 4.2 gigahertz and I assume that'll be a lot closer to that for the most parts now if you step up to the higher end for i7 8850 h these numbers are a lot that guy is going to be able to run at two points a skier Hertz base or four point three Pierre Hertz boost on top of that that 8850 H does have some slight overclocking capabilities so the depending on whether the laptop om will actually allow you to do it or not it can in theory be boosted by another 400 megahertz what I'm gonna excited to get my hands on though is that brand new Intel Core i nine laptop check so this is essentially built on what you're getting on the core i7 with the six core design but cranks up everything to 11 the I 989 50 HK has that same six core hyper threaded design as the i7 however it bumps up the clock speeds to 2.9 gigahertz bays and especially with their new velocity boost which will allow an even higher turbo clock assuming that you're going to be fairly cool on the processor you can get up to four point eight gigahertz out of the core I nine even better is that it's going to be overclockable so I feel like it's going to be only a matter of time before we start seeing laptops with a six core 5 gigahertz plus processor until had a few of these quinine systems set up and to be fair they were all very very thick but a lot of that is because they all had a gtx canadian side which as you will probably know is nice they're going to be the easiest thing to cool go over it you don't actually need dual power supplies for the core I 9 as it is still going to be a 45 watt chip at least until you start overclocking all these processors should be going on sale pretty shortly but I've got to say I am really excited for the new i7s and I 9 having six cores and a laptop is going to be a legit game-changer I'm curious which of these processors do you think will make it into your next laptop let me know in the comments below and I will catch you in the next one
