Skylake-based Core i9 processors were introduced during Computex 2017. Those processors incorporate a large number of changes over their Broadwell counterparts which brings along a performance increase in addition to other improvements. Those processors are also the first to incorporate the new AVX-512 extension.

• TDP: 140 W
• ISA: Everything up to AVX-512 (SMM, FPU, NX, MMX, SSE, SSE2, SSE3, SSSE3, SSE4.1, SSE4.2, AES, AVX, FMA3, AVX2, and AVX-512)
• Tech: Turbo Boost 2.0, Turbo Max 3.0, Hyper-Threading, VT-x, VT-d, SpeedStep, Software Guard (SGX), and Memory Protection (MPX)
