Intel Z170 Chipset – FeaturesĪs well as a processor design, Skylake ushers in a new chipset and CPU socket too. This clearly marks the HD Graphics 530 out as a significant upgrade, though as ever it’s still a far cry from the performance you’d get with a dedicated graphics card. That older design also has just over 20GB/s memory bandwidth. This compares to fillrates of 0.8GPixel/s and 1.6GTexel/s for the Intel HD Graphics 4600 as used in the Core i7-4770K/4790K and Core i5-4670K/4690K. It’s also rated to support DirectX 11.2 – notably, not DirectX 12 – and features 48 unified shaders, 8 ROPs and 16 TMUs producing a pixel fillrate of 2.8GPixel/s and texture fillrate of 5.6GTexel/s. For instance we know it runs at 350MHz and addresses 1067MHz of RAM via a 128-bit bus producing 34.1GB/s of memory bandwidth. However, we can work a few things out for ourselves. Not that we know a great deal about these GPUs as Intel is yet to reveal many details regarding its inner workings. However, most will sport a variation on the Intel HD Graphics 530 that is included in the 6700K and 6600K. The exact configuration will vary from chip to chip, with some sporting the new higher power graphics with dedicated L4 caches like on some recent Broadwell chips – ideal for powerful compact computers where a graphics card isn’t an option.
