I think technically Cannon Lake is a die shrink of Kaby Lake. There are not a lot of differences from SL to KL, but there are differences.


Cannonlake is not a shrink of Kabylake. This is confirmed because Intel already confirmed that Cannonlake comes with Gen10 graphics. That rules out a shrink of Kabylake.
 
@Arachnotronic don't think the beans will be spilled or they would have been by now.

On the other hand he did say I was just reading into what he said and imagining things. So yeah, Coffee Lake-S is all good.

Wondering about the clocks in the database; with this being an ES, does that also mean these clocks are always set in stone or can they possibly still be changed? I think this is pretty much it right? They seem to be a bit on the low side, both base and boost clocks.

I meant Coffee Lake, actually. Which is even worse... 😀

It's not even a die shrink. I have been at work too long...
 
edit: Nevermind..I misread what you said...yea CNL is technically a shrink of KBL now...

Pretty sure CNL is not just a shrink of KBL (unless you are only referring to the S lineup).

AFAIK Cannonlake was supposed to be a 10nm die shrink of Skylake (now Kaby Lake). These kind of architecture always had some small improvements especially in the iGPU area. Remember Ivy Bridge, Broadwell ? This is the same.
Coffee Lake is not a shrink nor a new architecture, it's basically some kind of Kaby Lake spin-off.

Yeah the IGP is Gen10. I don't know if there is anything really notable in it however. There were rumors of one point that Intel was going to implement AdaptiveSync but I am not so sure that is going to happen with Cannonlake.

I only said that because KBL is the most recent chip between the two. I'm sure there are more changes. What about Coffee Lake though?

Coffee Lake is "confirmed" to be using Gen 9.5 IGP so pretty much any additional clock speeds due to 14++ is it, well beyond the extra cores.
