what is yup - it's Dimitri what's up he looking good my frame which they opening likewise I'm actually setting up for a video right now no I'm actually working on on something what do you what are you working on basically working on an explained video for Intel's new eighth generation mobile CPUs so yeah a generation feels like feels like we've already done this video ok let me explain back then I talked about what Intel's a generation processors were able to offer on both the mobile and desktop sites in that video a lot of you abroad the fact that you weren't able to tell the difference between KB Lake refresh and coffee Lake processors because they're technically part of the Intel 8 generation Core series but the situation's about to get even more confusing because in this video I'll be going over even some more processors that are gonna live right alongside the originals and hopefully I'll be able to give you some insight as to what's really going on here because there's some really cool stuff coming down the pipeline so let's get into it but first a quick message from our sponsor then you and their Mac slick fusion is their first addressable RGB all-in-one cooler with a standard 240 ml rad and absolutely beautiful RGB ring elimination on the fans and the pump to highlight that unique flow indicator through the transparent top check out the lake fusion down below okay so with that out of the way let's get to the interesting parts in order to understand what Intel's trying to accomplish here we have to look at what AMD is doing first an announcement like this from Intel was pretty much expected that's because AMD is due to launch their rice into CPU sometime this month until needed a response and introducing new processors into segments that they weren't serving is the first step to compete against Raven Ridge and the new rise in CPUs but let me set the stage for you first when the newest KP like our CPUs came out remember R stands for refresh and when they entered the mobile market they were eventually used to create some amazing thin and light notebooks for example I have this Dell XPS 13 and this HP Spectre x-360 both them feature a thread or quad core a third processors yet they're able to deliver excellent all-day battery life which is astounding considering their form factor if you think about a previous six generation or seven generation CPUs weren't able to deliver that kind of power and efficiency and if you're interested we've actually done a lot of content based around these notebooks featuring a generation CPU so if you're interested I'll leave the links down below or you can check them out right over here so with no books on mind let's talk with some brand new mobile CPUs but there's something that needs to be discussed first the newcomers in this chart I'm about to show you aren't meant to replace processors like the IEEE 78550 you and the i5 8250 you that were both in the XPS 13 and the HP spectre x360 remember these CPUs operated at just 15 watts and prioritized battery life over performance whereas the new CPUs will operate at up to 28 watts so let's check them out right away you will see why things might get a little confusing for buyers since the 28 want processors have virtually the same names as lower performance models the only thing to distinguish them will be the 9 instead of v-0 for example the 15 watt I 7 8550 u operates at a base clock of 1.8 gigahertz while the 28 watt I 785 59u you see here will move along to 2.7 gigahertz the rest of the new lineup is similar when compared to the lower wattage alternatives not only that but all the processors you see here will also have upgraded graphics with intel's iris plus and up to 128 megabytes of integrated edie ram of course there will also be support for obtain memory now at this point I'm sure you're thinking about where we're likely gonna see these higher performance processors and I think there are a few possibilities for that we could see them potentially included in reasonably thin and professional-grade notebooks like the XPS 15 for content creators like myself while I appreciate the form factor of the XPS 13 and the spectre x360 I'm actually willing to sacrifice a little bit on the weight and the thickness if these new processors could offer better performance in apps like Adobe Premiere hopefully that's what we'll be able to see with these new processors considering their power efficiency as well but what if you're looking for something even more like this gaming notebook well until now high performance notebooks have still been using the old generation KB Lake 7000 series CPUs but Intel has decided to find we phase those out the replacements are fast and they're getting a ton of course while their new 300 series platform is impressive too so starting at the top of the lineup is Intel's first six core 12 threaded mobile processor the eye 989 50 HK which is supposed to take over the i7 79 20 HK the cool thing about this processor is that it has two extra cores more cache and runs at a much higher turbo frequency but it is rated at the same 45 watt TDP as the older i7 that's pretty impressive and it's also unlocked for notebook manufacturers so they can build overclocking tools into their systems so people can squeeze even more performance out of it I'm gonna skip the mobile xeon processors for now since they mostly target mobile workstations in the professional market but the rest of the refreshed high-end mobile cpu lineup follows the same path as the i9 8950 HK vs. c9 79 20 HK story basically they all offer more threats and overall much higher performance specs than their predecessors unfortunately the i9 is the only one that's completely unlocked the i7 8850 H does have some overclocking capabilities but those will be strictly limited another thing that you'll notice is the lack of HQ branding on these new CPUs that's because it's accused to that four quad core and since every one of these new CPUs have four or more cores the additional letter really wasn't necessary I should also mention there's an important distinction to make between the you brand processors and the H vendor processors so for example if you take the i7 8559 you CPU and compared to something like the i7 8850 H CPU they're both different in terms of architecture so the you better processor is still cabling refresh whereas the H brand processor is Intel's very first coffee Lake mobile CPU so that's something to keep in mind dell and alienware have a total of six new gaming notebooks with the a generation H series processors starting off with Alienware there is a refresh for the 17 inch and 15 inch notebook lineups with the i9 i7 + i5 CPU s alongside the potential to overclock some models to 5 gigahertz other than the new processors not much has changed though the exterior chasse remains pretty much the same and they're still availability for higher trait panels with g-sync technology meanwhile graphics will come from an overclocked version of the gtx 960 1070 or age 10 and gtx 980 while Alienware will provide higher-end solution I'm more excited about the new Dells G series of gaming notebooks since they have something to fit literally everyone's budget the g3 15 inch and the g3 17 inch started just 749 while being just 22 millimeters thick and including a generation isone processors alongside with a gtx 950 or gtx 1016 max-q graphics then the g5 15 steps things up a bit at $7.99 or above by offering configurations that are pretty much similar to the g3 series by offering the exact same four core processors and better storage options you may actually recognize this chassis from last year since we actually reviewed the in spawn gaming 15 notebook which was used as a starting point for this new design finally there's the g7 15 which will start at 849 USD and will be the highest end non-alien web branded no book series from Dell it comes with up to six core processors new advanced chassis upgraded cooling more i/o than the g5 15 and can be configured with up to 4k IPS display which is awesome well there's everything that you need to know about Intel's new eighth generation coffee-mate mobile CPUs but that's not the end of this video because there have been a couple more interesting developments I want to kick things off by announcing a couple more announcements in the desktop coffee lake lineup but also intel's octane technology is receiving some interesting updates that might be worth a while notice I just mentioned might so yeah he's opting let's get to the desktop just like I said on the mobile side the 87 and other CPUs have delivered great performance at low TDP levels even though they offered more threads than their processors we did a full review of coffee Lake which you can check it out right over here but the new lineup was lacking a free products to properly compete with Amy's Rison that's going to change now since three more processors are being launched let's start with the three CPUs at the start of this chart since they're just meant to close gaps in intel's current lineup for example the i5 8600 is simply a lot slower and less expensive version of the 8600 k the same story goes for the i5 85 100 and the i3 8300 which cost less than the k-series chips but also offer lower clock speeds and can't be overclocked this isn't big news at all since Intel's just following the natural progression of their lineup by finally offering more options as for those new t-series chips we probably won't see them in many custom systems but the higher core counts and load 35 RT DPS mean they could be great options for all-in-one desktop computers and high-performance ultra small form-factor species grabbing one of those and sticking it into something like the asrock decima new GTX would make for an awesome little powerhouse so the last thing I want to discuss are some revisions to octane memory you might remember the original opt-in video where Demetri explained the technology and how it really failed to do anything different when compared to intel's older SSD caching technology all team modules were expensive they had limited capacity and since the ultra-fast 3d crosspoint memory could only be used to accelerate your primary boot drive its users were limited but now my friends that's about to change because intel is finally allowing us to do more with octane instead of just accelerating your primary C Drive octane can now also be directed towards caching data for quick access to data drives as well let me get this straight for you guys if you're already running an SSD for your OS install and a large capacity hard drive for something like steam game library the opt-in memory module can be used to accelerate game loads through the HDD according to Intel you may even see benefits if your secondary drive is a standard SATA base SSD since the write caching of octane is so fast it could speed up slower solid-state drives too personally I think this gives a whole new perspective for octane and I actually can't wait to test it in real life so that pretty much wraps up all the major announcements from Intel today I hope you're caught up with everything that you need to know from Intel's new copulating mobile processors to the new enhancements with octane you know it's really interesting because Intel's trying to step up their game right before aim the hits them back with Rison - so the next few months are definitely going to be interesting and I can't wait to get my hands on these new products so definitely looking forward to it but I'd love to hear your thoughts on Intel's announcement are you excited about anything I mean do you see core I nine CPUs on notebooks exciting I mean what are your thoughts on that leave a comment down below also don't forget to subscribe as we'll have content from both Intel and AMD in the upcoming weeks so Dimitri what do you think I mean sounds pretty exciting to have so much additional power being delivered to the notebook space thanks for sharing e not a problem man now I gotta go edit this video so I'll catch you all in the next one
