Specifications for Intel's Kaby Lake CPUs have leaked

Specifications for Intel's upcoming Kaby Lake series of CPUs have been leaked, showcasing some very high clock speeds and TDPs of up to 95W.

Intel's current generation of Skylake CPUs max out with a TDP of 91W, meaning that Kaby Lake will consume a little more power at max load, hinting at some CPU and/or GPU clock speed increases or additional GPU compute resources.

In the below table Coolaler alleges that the clock speeds listed are CPU base clock speeds and not boost clock speeds and that the Core i7 7700K will boost as high as 4.5GHz, which are speeds which would be considered a high overclock on previous generation parts. Judging by previous generations these listed clock speeds look like boost clock speeds, though Intel could surprise us.

At this time Kaby Lake is expected to launch in early 2017 and only feature small IPC gains over Intel's current-generation Skylake architecture and will be using the same CPU socket layout.

Right now it is unknown if Intel will require Kaby Lake users to use their upcoming 200-series of motherboards or allow existing 100-series users to upgrade freely.

You can join the discussion on Intel's Kaby Lake CPUs on the OC3D Forums.
