It means Sample Engineering Marked as a second update, which will emphasize the idea that Intel has been on its feet at the accelerator for months and is only playing with the times in the current regulatory field with the handheld.
What can we expect from this second engineering review Tiger Lake-U at 10 nm ++? Does Intel have such a lithographic process ready?
Medium waves, high performance and similar applications
If the leak is true, Intel will adhere to what is promised in its roadmap, or the details we will see here perhaps, may not be too good to be true, at least in some cases. According to the Zhihu forum, this ES comes with 4-string configurations and 8 threads, which is why it compares to a platform Core i7-1065G7, which combines the same coding / string configurations and attains the basic frequency of 1,3 GHz and the Boost of 3.9 GHz.
This is Tiger Lake-U you obviously run the frequency of 4.3 GHz, so we're going to be talking about a more frequent than notable increase in one generation, something Intel is not familiar with and has already made the jump from Broadwell to Skyyl at 14 nm.
The leak indicates that, in addition to this frequency of 4,3 GHz, the pressure can stimulate all the cores until they reach 4 GHz, thus developing the Turbo Boost 2.0 technology and moving it with the current one TB 3.0. This is another factor that could explain the increase in performance that we will see next, because the development is beyond consideration.
Tiger Lake-U will have 15W and 28W variants
As expected, Intel's new build will use two different versions of the affected TDP. So, from the source Intel Core i7-1065G7 15W With this ES2 in its two TDP configurations, we can simultaneously see how much adjustment can be expected in both cases.
At SPEC Speed, the 15-watt TG-U is a 17% faster on average compared to Ice Lake-U, where a 10% difference would give us a 7% increase in CPI for orders rate. When TDP is on for 28 watts, the data is almost double, because the average is the same 31% immediately
At the SPEC level the detail is much wider between buildings, because at 15 watts the average difference goes up to 26% on average, from 28 watts to 62% faster with 60% average. Without a doubt and if the data is true, a new main build Willow fancy together with the new generation of I / O and the new group of calls it can create a front and rear marker on the manual market, where the second generation of the 10 nm node seems to have improved as well.
We'll see if Intel really continues to retain the crown in this sector or AMD with Zen 3 and its APU capable of snatching the crown.
