Intel's new Skylake processors bundle performance improvements with better battery life

Intel recently announced it's 6th generation of Intel Core processors codenamed Skylake. This processor family is expected to set a new standard with new, portable sleek designs that are thinner than ever, are capable of starting in about half a second, and offer up to two and a half times the performance and triple the battery life when compared to the computers many people currently own. The new architecture is designed for Windows 10 but will also likely be used in new MacBook products from Apple.
Inte says the 6th Gen Intel Core processor family is the most scalable ever for consumers and businesses, enabling the broadest range of designs from the smallest Intel Compute Stick and All-in-One desktops, to 2 in 1s, notebooks and the first-ever Intel Xeon processor for mobile workstations.
