Skylake is the codename for a processor microarchitecture to be developed by Intel as the successor to the Broadwell architecture.[1] Skylake will use a 14 nm process.[2]
There are no official details regarding this microarchitecture's development. The first Skylake processors are expected in 2015.[3]
Architecture
- 14 nm process.
- Mainstream support for DDR4 SDRAM.[4][5]
- Support for PCIe 4.0[6]
