I'm not exactly sure what's more "nebulous" about the timing for consumer chips. This timing is specified for both the consumer and server chips in the same sentence in the press release: "These changes will begin with our next-generation Intel® Xeon® Scalable processors (code-named Cascade Lake) as well as 8th Generation Intel® Core™ processors expected to ship in the second half of 2018." (I guess the nebulous thing is exactly which 8th generation Cores will have the update.)
- wmf 9y agoI guess the nebulous thing is exactly which 8th generation Cores will have the update. Indeed. Plenty of 8th gen processors have already shipped so it won't be easy to tell which ones are fixed. Also, 8th gen includes Kaby Lake-R, Coffee Lake, Cannonlake, and maybe Whiskey Lake; I doubt all of those will be fixed. And I was expecting Intel to be selling 9th gen in 2H2018.
