    Unlocked Skylake-K processors heading to laptops


    Posted: 20 Aug 2015
    During the Intel Developer Forum 2015, Intel unveiled their plans to launch unlocked Skylake-K line of processors to laptops starting later this year. While speaking to Hexus, Intel's Senior VP of the Intel PC Client group had iterated that enthusiast range of laptops will be receiving Skylake processors that allow for overclocking.

    Previously we reported that Intel is planning to launch a variety of Skylake processors for its mobile range, all the way from mobile Xeon processors to its Celeron lineup. Skylake-K is the latest line of processors to be announced for launch later this year.

    It should be noted that Skylake-K processors are geared for the enthusiast, premium laptops. Due to the ability for these processors to be overclocked, inherent limitations will exist to attainable thermals and maximum power...

    The trick is the cooling methods used and still keeping the laptop thin and light weight.
    Remembering to many if it weights more than a Starbuck medium cup of coffee it is way to heavy.
    That should be interesting.

    Lenovo announced a new P series Thinkpad with Skylake µP due out later this year. No liquid cooling tho., just dual fans.
