Carrizo will be replacing Kaveri in mainstream notebooks by Mar of 2015. The Carrizo-L family however will be entrance sooner. And it will reinstate stream low energy Beema and Mullins APUs by a finish of this year in December. Beema and Mullins are AMD’s latest low energy APUs formed on a Puma CPU core. Which is a second era of a Jaguar core featured in a PS4 and XBOX ONE. Mainstream Carrizo will contest with Intel’s Core i7, Core i5 and Core i3 mobiles array of processors. While Carrizo-L will be competing with a reduce cost Pentium and Celeron chips.
 

 
 
 
With a 4th era of a Bulldozer family of cores formula named Excavator. AMD will start a new strategy.In that it will use a singular core pattern to aim both a low energy and mainstream segments. AMD has driven a potency of a new CPU core to a turn that creates this viable. AMD will still aim a ultra low energy shred with tiny cores in 2015 with Skybridge. With Skybridge AMD will use ARM cores and x86 cores interchangeably in one SOC. Skybridge SOCs will underline tuned A57 ARM cores and Puma+ cores. The chips will be 20nm formed and will aim tablets and  convertibles in 2015
 
 

 

 
 
 
 

Hazman, I want to say thanks for sharing more than a link and single line out of the article. This is nice to see.

Hazman, I want to say thanks for sharing more than a link and single line out of the article. This is nice to see.

Agreed. Sometimes its annoying to see a link and a line which is usually the title of the article.

It's annoying.. I don't click the link unless the title actually interests me. If I just see the title of the article has been copied an pasted, and then a seemingly hot sentence out of the article, I won't even click it.

My only interest with these CPU+IGP processors is the IGP itself, and most leaked or rumored specs of Carrizo reuse the same 512-sp as Kaveri, my guess is the clock has been increased. It better be, the Broadwell IGP uses 48-executions units, up from the count of 40 used in the Haswell IGP flagship "Iris Pro 5200".  So it would make sense to marginally increase the IGP performance to compete-- but it doesn't impress me.
 
The Skylake iGP flagship expected to have 72-execution cores, that is 50% more than Broadwell and 80% more than Haswell.  What on Earth is AMD doing about this?  I'm guessing the big deal with Skybridge is ARM and x86 socket compatibility, I'm not sure if the IGP is being improved to compete with Skylake (but I'm sure the ARM APU will have a more powerful IGP than all other ARM processors in existence).
 
With Skylake, Intel would have taken the only advantage AMD had in x86, i.e. a better IGP.
