Hi Guys,

I've read in the past that Skylake's integrated GPU will be better than Broadwell ones. 

Does this applies also to Desktop CPUs (S series)?

I'm asking this because according to Wikipedia Skylake desktop processor will have only GT2 graphic cards (HD 5xxx) instead of GT3e (Iris Pro 6XXX).

 

Is this true? 

Will Intel release Skylake CPUs with GT3\GT4 in 2015?

 

Thank you.

Intel hasn't released that much information about skylake. That being said, I couldn't see Intel regressing on any performance (CPU or iGPU) with a new architecture, so I think they'll definitely be at least the same or better compared to Broadwell.

According to this article Kaby Lake (Skylake's successor) will have GT4 graphics only on some CPUs (the lower end)  :(

not to be an elitist but this is finally the right thing to do. High end cards don't need igpus that are beastly because most users go discrete at that point. (Unless suddenly igpu beats dgpu...)

Low end cards for low end builds by far make the most sense to use the best igpu Intel can throw at it.
