It looks like Intel is working on more than just dual core Cannonlake processors which will be using their most advanced 10nm process node. A recent listing on Sandra database has once again given us the first specifications of a quad core Cannonlake chip, the Core i5-8269U.

Intel’s 10nm Cannonlake Quad Core With SMT Spotted – Core i5-8269U With A Base Clock of 2.60 GHz

Yesterday, we reported the first listing of a Intel Cannonlake Core i3 processor. The processor that was listed as the Core i3-8121U turned out to be dual core with multi-threading, clocked at a base frequency of 2.20 GHz and had 4 MB of L3 cache. The boost clocks weren’t mentioned but it can be compared to the Core i3-8130U (Kaby Lake) which is based on a 14nm+ process which features the same specifications however, the 10nm based Cannonlake part may feature higher boost clocks or better efficiency.

Moving on to today’s listing, we are looking at another 10nm Cannonlake part. This time, it is a Core i5 chip. The chip is called the Core i5-8269U and comes with a quad core design and SMT support. The specifications are very similar to the current 8th generation Core i5 Kaby Lake-R processors. In terms of clocks however, we are looking at a good bump in base clock. Currently, the fastest Core i5 U-series chip comes with a base clock of 1.7 GHz and boosts up to 3.6 GHz. The Core i5-8269U which is based on the 10nm Cannonlake architecture features a base clock that is set at 2.60 GHz.

No details regarding the boost clocks are mentioned but we can expect it around the 4 GHz mark at least if not higher. Other specifications are similar to current Core i5 U-series chips such as a 6 MB L3 cache, 15W TDP. There’s no mention of iGPU right now but Cannonlake chips will feature a new Gen 10 iGPU. No other details are mentioned but it looks like we are finally moving towards an official launch of 10nm processors from Intel since more Cannonlake SKUs have started to show up.
