News Report: Intel's Upcoming Comet Lake Xeon Mobile CPU Skyrockets to 5.3 GHz

[Admin]

A reputable hardware leaker shared alleged specifications for the Intel Xeon W-10885M and W-10855M. The two mobile Xeon chips presumably hail from Intel's 10th Gen Comet Lake family.

so more 5+ghz for a mobile device that will never be reached?

It will reach it, just on 1c/1t maybe 2t. With a 45W TDP with 8 cores the base clock is probably 1.5GHz.

These might actually be able to boost to those clocks on a single core when plugged in. A top end mobile Xeon isn't going in an ultrabook. Mobile workstations are more DTR's than laptops. They allow you to take your system with you, but you're not going to want to lug it around on a hiking trip and expect it to run all day on a battery.

It'll boost to 5.3ghz on a single core workload for maybe 20 seconds. These boost numbers are heavily inflated and unrealistic for a XEON machine which are typically used for tasks that require more than 1 thread, like content creation, multiple virtual machines etc.... Right now, with AMD being so awesome, it's all about marketing with Intel right now. They NEED to advertise some sort of advantage over AMD.

Be on EXTREME BOOST 6.8 Boost to 5.3GHz on half a core for 0.03s then throttle back down to below base to recover! Then slap a 5GHz+ on the box because that's not false advertising.

exactly.

then it thermal throttles lower than baseclock <_<
