Google's Nexus Player (Google TV) powered by Baytrail. Shocker!

"The $99 Player, built by Asus, runs a 1.8GHz quad core Intel Atom processor and twin-aerial 802.11ac Wi-Fi, and has an HDMI-out port for wired connections. "

That is a very interesting win for Intel. I've been trying to figure out why the Atoms are the better choice for Google there, but nothing really comes to mind.

Cheers!


to me it is obvious, price ! Intel can give deep discounts and guarantee production. something samsung and tsmc cannot do,

Hey all, I've had a read through this thread and I couldn't quite get the info I was looking for.

I'm looking at buying an i5490k for my gaming build but I don't want to do that if there's a newer chip coming in the next 6 months. Is there a Broadwell desktop CPU coming at the start of next year or is it a minature/tablet one only? If so, does that mean that Skylark will be the next gen at the end of 2015?

Thanks a lot.


Broadwell is just a die shrink so not that big of a deal for a desktop gaming machine. Late 2015H1 is the rumor for desktop so between 6-9 months. Skylake is 2015H2 and likely on the later side of that.

Broadwell mobile is already shipping and should appear on the shelves before XMAS.
