Intel says the scene already the seventh generation of its processes, this time codenamed Kaba Lake. In principle, this is a very similar architecture, which possessed no previous successful series Skylake. Intel, however, worked on various optimizations and the result is a processor that delivers real increase performance while maintaining minimal energy consumption.
Architecture Kaba Lake is again based on 14nm manufacturing process. Initially demanding production manages Intel's absolutely stunning perfection that makes this processor offers an excellent price-performance ratio. Like predecessors missing AES-NI instructions, which allow a much better hardware support when working with encrypted disks, which is a substantial reduction in latency. The device also supports common virtualization functions VT-d and VT-x, including EPT. Data access greatly facilitates fast L3 cache size of 6 MB which gives the cores enough time for an immediate response to all applications. This processor with properties guaranteed to serve as a reliable basis for your computer assemblies.
Because Intel focused on the optimization of existing technologies, such as new processors from a range of functional Kaba Lake also already sold motherboards socket 1151st It is only necessary motherboard manufacturer to verify compatibility and perform relatively simple update UEFI environment.
