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
