Iris 6100 in new Macbook Pro 13. Wonder how that compares!!

[ApoorvPrem]

Anyone has any idea about the benchmarks? How does it fare compared to the Iris Pro? Or the Iris ?

Probably not as powerful as the Iris Pro, after all it has no fan for cooling it so unless Intel have made something magical I would say along the lines of the Iris

It supports dual 4K monitors, which the Iris Pro does not. I wonder how well it does this.

I just noticed the memory is 1866mhz instead of 1600. This should help the Iris I would think.

I don't think anybody else used those chips yet. You will have to wait for benchmarks. I am guessing it will be 20% faster minimum or so based on simple math with memory speed and execution units. Question is the actual clock rates it will run under load. Chances are 14nm helps with the low clock rates and that will be whatever will be the percentage points on top of the min 20%.

I too am interested in this!

Also, does anyone have any details on the new flash storage and RAM (I see it has a few more letters and mhz now)? I'm supreised PCIe based flash storage even gets any faster?

Does the new rMBP 13" have no fan? I thought that was the new 12" Macbook....but only just got and still catching up.

Well at least we know that Iris 6100 can support up to 3 displays at 3840x2160 at 60 Hz.

so we can say that the new early 2015 retina macbook pro supports 3x 4K display ?
