Asus has revealed two new rigs that will take advantage of Intel’s upcoming Skylake (aka Intel Core 6th-generation) processor, according to a report from PC Perspective. this announcement pitches the Asus systems as among the first to utilize the hardware. The first of the two systems is the G11CB, a desktop that packs a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980 graphics card, M.2 SSD and DDR4 SDRAM. Its design features something that Asus describes as an “aggressively-designed chassis,” with the front of the unit featuring eye-catching LED light effects. the VivoPC VC65 is set to be positioned as the new flagship model of Asus’ VivoPC line of machines with a small form factor.VivoMini UN65H and UN45

 The UN65 comes with support for a hard drive and an M.2 solid state drive to maximize storage. The system comes equipped with an Intel Core processor paired with Intel's Iris Pro integrated graphics.

Kinda sad desktop Broadwell can't even get a few weeks in the spotlight.

Guys noob question, I'm so confused. What's the difference between Skylake and Broadwell?

Who cares about Broadwell and Haswell.  I am all about the Rockwell.

Skylake is the 6th generation processor, while Broadwell is one generation behind. Due to Intel's manufacturing delays, Broadwell's release has been pushed back and is just launching now. Skylake and Broadwell both are manufactured on the 14nm process, but Skylake has a completely new architecture while Broadwell uses mostly the same architecture as the 4th generation Haswell processors.

Your Rockwell is not the true Rockwell.

Thanks, that clears up a lot of confusion.
