Intel Haswell Refresh is Intel's future desktop/laptop platform, and the American company is preparing it for launch next month. More precisely, until May 10, those from Intel could offer its partners its new platform, it follows to be implemented in the laptop/desktops that will hit the market in the summer. These products include the new ones Mac-s of those from Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC),, Namely macbookair, iMac si MacBook Pro Retina Display, all to be updated during this year.
According to sources in the IT retail, Intel could launch these new chips, led by the Core i7-4790K, on May 10th in most markets. Intel Core "Haswell" Refresh processors offer marginally better performance over current Core "Haswell" chips, at existing price points (ie, they will displace existing chips from their current price-points). The 9-series chipset offers features such as M. 2 SSD support, making you ready for a tidal wave of 1000 MB/s SSDs that will launch around Computex.
For now, it is not known exactly what real increase in performance the platform will bring Intel Haswell Refresh, but we are definitely talking about an improvement in the battery autonomy of laptops. Last year Intel dramatically improved laptop batteries and offered a performance boost of just 20% for laptops, so it remains to be seen exactly what we will get from the company this year.
