Kaby Lake is Intel's codename for the upcoming 14 nanometer successor to the Skylake microarchitecture,[1] anticipated to enter volume production towards late-2016.[2]
Skylake was to be succeeded by the 10 nanometer Cannonlake, but it was announced on July 16, 2015, that Cannonlake has been delayed until the second half of 2017.[3][4]
Features
Kaby Lake will add native USB 3.1 (generation 2) support, whereas Skylake motherboards require a third-party add-on chip in order to provide USB 3.1 ports.[5] It will also feature a new graphics architecture to improve performance in 3D graphics and 4K video playback.[6]
Kaby Lake will add native HDCP 2.2 support.[7]
Kaby Lake will add full fixed function HEVC Main10/10-bit and VP9 10-bit hardware decoding.[8]
