Intel: First Kaby Lake Benchmarks leaked

[Redaktion]

The launch of Intel's next CPU generation seems to come closer. For the first time, we now have benchmarks and they give us the first chance for a comparison with the current Skylake generation. So much upfront: The integrated graphics unit in particular is once again getting a big performance boost.

What memory was used? DDR3L or DDR4, single- or dual-channel? Thanks in advance!  ;)

What's so surprising about the multicore test? The 7500U is two-core, while the older 6500U is four-core

[Benji]

Nope, ignore above comment - both are two-core / 4-thread, so yeah, the difference in performance in multicore tests is weird
