Intel GDC Devil's Canyon Unveil & Specs - 9-Series Chipset

2014-03-20
so we're going to come out and with a its 4th gen course this is based on as well but we're making a number of changes and we typically do not do this right so when we come out the processor light as well cetera then we don't make any substantial changes to it we just bump the frequency a little bit till we come out with an extra line right but several months ago as again as we were stepping back and saying no wow we have this customer base that frankly were frustrating some of our most loyal customers like all the people you saw at that extreme masters event because we're not bringing them enough performance it's the kind of we went out talk to customers got this feedback on new to us you guys report some of this right so you know as well so what can we do for that customer base and by the way I don't want it to intercept the next big platform what can we do now and then build on that with the roadmap going forward and so with a small tiger team of some of the most senior engineering folks at Intel we did a little huddle figured out what can we do and this is the part for doing and it will be available just you know less than a year you know who's six to seven months after the time we conceived it's a pretty quick turn for what we're doing with it which is we are we just found the package so we have a new package with a new thermal interface material on it we thought will be supported by the nine series chipset to our next chipset and this is going to bring a really nice bump in in performance just based performance as well as overclocking so we are really excited about this and so I told the team you know I don't really want to call it just and that's how well the next fourth gen core is what else could we do it turns out yeah a few gamers in itself a lot actually and so we had a little internal contest to name it and I told them you know I'm gay I'm probably not the target market but this is the name of the internal team came up with bills cannon so codename Devil's Canyon will come out with this in mid 14 and we're really excited about our teams really excited about it this this is the first one off the line with the new package we just got it back last week engineering team tells me it's right on track with the performance targets that we set so we'll get it out very very quickly mid-year really excited about this one so stay tuned we'll have a lot more details and specifics on this as we get closer to launch okay and so with that again you know my main focus for the link to talk to you today was that the desktop is an important business and market to Intel we're investing in it and we're focused with our customers in the industry on reinventing the category and bringing new and exciting form factors used to jizz experiences and new products and of course I talked about the big things we're announcing which is around ready mode technology all the new software for the portable on ones and the four new product I just talked through for the enthusiast space so all four of those you know new products that within the last six months you know adding them to the roadmap okay and so with that thank you very much and I think we're going to open it up for some questions right let's do a quick Q&A session one thing I want you to mention is cards on people chattering I really gap yeah so the cyberlink at the one I tried to show you really it works in practice I know if I don't know but it took it's a fantastic app you're going to love it for editing photo video so we're making that available to all of you guys you get a pre-release that goes into production in April but we've got this for you and you can go download it and it's got all the instructions here to go to go get that and check it out I'll be emailing you a code for that so come to me you can also come to me for The Devil's Canyon sample program yeah that's right that's right by the way you know I've told me the inside folks inside of Intel you cannot imagine how many beta testers have raised their hand so we have to kind of hold them off so we can get some samples for you guys well then we'll have to wait all right so okay math questions yes go to Mike over here Mike over there tell us what category bells canyon is the i5 or i7 yes and you can only get going to be overclocked absolutely I was wondering why do you guys have to release or why does it have to be in the ninth series chipset if it's not a you know necessarily different chip internally like the architecture why he had to go to the night series chips instead of the creamiest we wanted to get as much at performance boost as we could so optimized for the next chips that we had coming out and that chipset was coming out anyway right it's not that's not new to the platform and so we just paired it and time in the back had a quick question about a thermal paste basically are using are you going back to solder or was it a material will tell you all about it when we launched I knew we did a lot of questions on this voyage giving you a sneak normally I do any of this to launch but I was so excited from wait so I just want to tell you guys discovered we're a little confused a well Broadwell socket at work in an existing as well nine series tripped up work it will be drop a drop into the existing housing for exams and nine wait where's my team not series 9 series only 29 years which working with 00 broadwell 1 is 14 nanometer all the other ones which are Haswell architecture based are 22 I know it's kind of a sort of the premise of broad well but with the new which you're giving away to talk about here is there prevent have any any provision going forward to dad and sort of expansion capability for discrete graphics with their BS to the street global shipping but regarding supplier or some sort of say the first part of your question I'm sorry with a new I means a provision you to add on discrete graphics in the future whether it be an expansion card is it a screen ship of some sort we have to get I have to go back to the nub team again and add to it but essentially that this is not for you know in the category of mini and tiny pcs we have gone from just the first version adding all kinds of cool thanks to this hard drive capability all that have stuff but for that specifically walk we can go ask the team at get back I was what is the TDP of the new that was cannon processors we're we're not going to get into specifics but i can tell you we're not messing with power just so that you can overclock it so just expect the same as what we have today we're you know we're frankly we're doing the hard work just to crank up the performance but you have to change power supplies on this selaron anniversary edition you have a right handyman there is no celeron actually reminds me of the original cell around me and so on was a great overclocking part in the very early days but the pentium actually you can generate 20 over to the 54 c which was
