Similarly, the Core i5-5350U and 5250U also use the HD 6000 GPU while the 5300U and 5200U use the HD 5500. The new Core i7-5650U and i7-5550U use the new Intel HD Graphics 6000 GPU and support 1866MHz LPDDR3 RAM, while the i7-5600U and i7-5500U use the slightly lower power HD Graphics 5500 and support only 1600MHz LPDDR3. Most of the new launches have 15W TDP ratings. The lineup includes variants supporting the company's vPro business features. The processors, which span Intel's Core i7, Core i5, Core i3, Pentium and Celeron brand categories, are all manufactured using the company's current 14nm fabrication process, which shrinks transistor sizes in order to provide better battery life and improve performance in low thermal profiles. Several devices from all major manufacturers based on the new processors are expected to launch in the coming days and weeks.
Intel continued its rollout of the 5th Generation Core processor family, formerly codenamed Broadwell, at CES today with the launch of 28 new low-voltage processors aimed at thin and light notebooks including 2-in-1 hybrid tablet products and Chromebooks.
