Due to the worldwide pandemic, this 12 months’s annual Computex occasion in Taiwan is being held just about, however all of the big-name corporations have keynotes to current their newest information and wares. Intel is not any totally different, and this 12 months the new ticket gadgets stem from an enlargement or ‘refresh’ of their Tiger Lake-U sequence processors (as we completely confirmed at AnandTech in April) but in addition the primary fruits of an Intel 5G resolution developed by the partnership with MediaTek.
Tiger Lake-U Refresh
At the beginning of the 12 months, the lay of the land for Intel within the second half of 2021 was complicated. The firm was promising to ship its 12th Generation Core ‘Alder Lake’ portfolio to each desktop and cellular by the tip of the 12 months, and there was some confusion as to which market was going to get the {hardware} first. As Intel ramps up its 10nm product traces, and as silicon provide chain shortages are slowly rectifying themselves, the preliminary expectation was that Alder Lake was to be launched first for cellular processors, provided that these are often smaller and simpler to deliver to market. With the Q1 2021 launch of Rocket Lake (11th Gen) for desktop, it will additionally make sense to launch a cellular product first as that was launched again in Q3 of 2020 (Tiger Lake-U).
However, as we reported on final month, Intel’s route for processor updates has one other stepping stone we hadn’t heard of earlier than. As a part of its Partner Connect convention to OEM and retail companions, Intel disclosed that it was getting ready a Tiger Lake-U Refresh household for the thin-and-light pocket book markets. During Intel’s presentation the place the TGL-U refresh was talked about, it was specified that the refresh will solely apply for 15-28 W processors. Today as a part of Computex, the primary parts of that Tiger Lake-U Refresh are being put in place.

Normally with a refresh we usually anticipate a full stack of processors, however this time round Intel is just offering two, no less than to start with. At the highest of the stack is the brand new halo processor, the Core i7-1195G7.
The Core i7-1195G7 represents the primary time Intel has enabled 5.Zero GHz on a U-class processor (not counting the H35 sequence which aren’t H-series processors however U-series processors with a silly title). Intel allows 5.Zero GHz by using Turbo Boost Max 3.0, which is a ‘favored core’ know-how and the most effective core of the processor can increase that top.
The different specs of the processor embrace a 2.9 GHz base frequency (at 28W solely, Intel hasn’t given the 12W or 15W base frequency), a 4.6 GHz all-core turbo frequency when contained in the turbo window, and a brand new peak 1400 MHz graphics frequency on the Xe-LP Iris graphics configuration of 96 execution…
