Kaby Lake G (KBL-G) is the name of the core for Intel's high-performance line of mobile processors based on the Kaby Lake microarchitecture integrating AMD's Vega graphics processor. These chips are targeted towards ultimate mobile gaming experience. Kaby Lake G processors are fabricated on Intel's enhanced 14nm+ process and for graphics, GlobalFoundries 14 nm process.

Preliminary Data! Information presented in this article deal with future products, data, features, and specifications that have yet to be finalized, announced, or released. Information may be incomplete and can change by final release.

Overview

Kaby Lake S based processors are a 2-chip solution - the microprocessor and the chipset. Kaby Lake S are Socket LGA-1151 and use Union Point chipset (HUB) but they may also use previous generation (Skylake S) Sunrise Point via a firmware upgrade. The microprocessor is connected to the chipset via 4 of the chip's 20 PCIe lanes using Intel's proprietary Direct Media Interface 3.0 (DMI 3.0), allowing for 8 GT/s transfer rate per lane. Additionally, 8 of the other PCIe lanes are used for the discrete AMD GPU that is incorporated into the same package as the CPU itself.

Common Features

All Kaby Lake G processors have the following:

• Dual-channel Memory
  • Up to DDR3L-1600, DDR4-2400
  • Up to 64 GiB
• 8x PCIe (4 of the 20 are used by the bus and 8 for the GPU as described above)
• quad-core with Hyper-Threading (8 threads)
• Everything up to AVX2 (SMM, FPU, NX, MMX, SSE, SSE2, SSE3, SSSE3, SSE4.1, SSE4.2, AES, AVX, and AVX2)
• Graphics
  • Integrated HD Graphics 630 (Gen9.5 GT2)
    • Base frequency of 350 MHz
    • Burst frequency of 1.15 GHz
  • Discrete Vega 20/24 GPU
    • Frequency 1-1.19 GHz
