    Yes, no more bit architectural overviews and deep dives like some sites used to do. Even die sizes are hardly mentioned anymore. Guess Intel boasting about how small their 4 core dies have become won't be popular and other things (like the amount of space/transistors Iris Pro takes up compared to GeForce or Radeon) won't make Intel look good.
    Marketing rules.
    Still, will have a look if there are any actual changes with Coffee Lake next week. At least the extra cores imply that's more than a heavily marketed die revision like Kaby Lake was.

    11% core performance improvement? Last time they said 15% yet it was near 0%, is this gonna be slower single core?

    Well, since Skylake and Kabylake are the exact same architecture (but not die since the video block had changes) naturally the IPC was the same.

    The marketing blurb of 15%, 11% etc. is for very specific circumstance:
    for desktop that meant higher base and turbo clocks (and max OC with the 'K' models)
    for mobile, it generally meant longer sustained turbo clocks.
